Taormina will partner with Procida Italian Capital of Culture 2022

According to reports from AgCult, the City of Taormina will partner with Procida Capital of Culture 2022. The collaboration is not yet official, but the news was announced by Taormina Mayor Mario Bolognari. “We have not formalized yet,” he said, “but I can say that the first meetings have been very fruitful.”

Procida was named Italian Capital of Culture 2022 in January and was a candidate with nine other finalists: it is the first time this title has been awarded to a small city and the first time a city that is not a provincial capital has been nominated.

“I think Procida can be considered a metaphor for so many places, so many administrations, so many communities that have rediscovered enthusiasm and pride for their territories and that with this title want to build an important redemption for their lands,” Procida Mayor Raimondo Ambrosino had said at the news. “Culture can be an extraordinary detonator of the strategic revitalization plan.” In fact, the nomination dossier states that Procida intends to create “a model of active urban life oriented toward culture and the desires of the community. Procida is the island that does not isolate, a cultural laboratory of social happiness.”
