The paintings and sculpture are by local, national and international and student artists.


A dinner will follow at 8.00pm at the Circolo dei Forestieri. There will be a pianist, a violinist and a soprano performing Puccini’s music.

The event has been organised by the Borgo degli Artisti.



Lunch in Casoli

Lucky Casoli has its own restaurant. We visited on an autumn Sunday.

It was quite warm outside but the fire was on inside, making a lovely welcome.

The room is charmingly decorated.


We chose pasta fritta as a shared antipasti.


A delicious, large serve of lasagna followed.

…and porchetta with a side of potato chips.

In warmer months there are tables available outside, offering views over the mountains.

A short walk after lunch showed us a little of the entrance to Casoli.
