Ponte a Serraglio has an excellent preloved homewares shop run by Auser. I am constantly surprised by the range and quality of the items on offer. The hand crocheted table cloth in the first photo is now mine.
The goods are all donated and the proceeds go to people who need a bit of help.
Here are the winter hours.
Lots to choose from…
The date has changed on the Tortellata della Nonna to 17th November!
The newly opened piazza in Bagni di Lucca Villa has been put to good use today for the flea market. It was a beautiful autumn day, perfect to enjoy a browse and perhaps find a treasure to buy.
It is great to be back in beautiful Ponte a Serraglio, my little part of Bagni di Lucca. Come for a walk along the river.
Home for the next few weeks…how lovely.
The next street market will be held this Sunday 29th September in La Villa.
This weekend in Bagni di Lucca…Saturday at the tennis club and Sunday at the Teatro Accademico.
The following weekend at the Casino in Ponte a Serraglio.
Starting Friday 13th September there will be 3 days of events in Gombereto.
There is a new exhibition starting today at the Borgo degli Artisti gallery in Ponte a Serraglio.
The inauguration is today Saturday 7th September from 5.00pm until 7.30pm.
The ribbon will be cut at 5.30pm on Friday 6th September to open the renovated Piazza Jean Verraud in Bagni di Lucca Villa. The work has finally finished. It will be excellent to have a car free piazza in the centre of town.
A band and refreshments will follow.
The inauguration of the first art exhibition at the newly regrouped Borgo degli Artisti was well attended. People spilled out onto the bridge on Sunday afternoon to see the work of local artists. It was great to see many familiar faces along with new people.
People were clearly enjoying themselves inside the gallery.
I wish I had been there to see the art up close.
Thank you to AnnBeth and Rita Gualtiera for the photos.
It is excellent to see the Borgo degli Artisti up and running again.
The exhibition continues until 24th August…5.00pm until 8.00pm each day.
