Vicopisano: the public library turns 50

On Saturday 18 April 2026 the Peppino Impastato public library in Vicopisano will open for a full day of family-focused events. Fifty years of shared stories, accessible culture and activities dedicated to children, families and the community.

The program includes age-specific readings, hands-on workshops and spaces for play designed to bring generations together.

  • 11:00 – Baby Ori Ori: storytime sessions for children aged 0 to 5, aimed at nurturing early reading and curiosity.
  • 16:00 – Cake cutting: an official moment with the mayor, past administrators, volunteers and community members to celebrate the anniversary.
  • 17:00 – Ori Ori special: readings for children aged 5 to 8 with a related workshop from the Biblioteca dei Semi project, in collaboration with Vico Verde, focusing on biodiversity and natural cultivation.
  • 18:00 – Game Night: shared board game time in the gaming zone, open to participants of all ages for social play.

Throughout the day there will also be additional features and takeaways:

  • Living Library: a free booklet by archivist Filippo Mori retracing the library's history.
  • Shelf of memories: a display of old registers, library cards and photos that reconnect visitors with the library's past.
  • A commemorative bookmark for attendees to take home as a memento.

The library remains a vital cultural hub: in 2025 it recorded 2,928 registered users and 19,194 loans, underlining its role in supporting families and young readers. Everyone is welcome to join the celebrations and discover the activities on offer.
