MARGINI Festival
This three-day event entitled Margini is dedicated to 'marginal arts' and focuses on two districts (or quartieri) of Livorno that, until recently, were associated with urban decay and social problems. Known as Shangay and Corea, these areas have now been redeveloped, from an architectural, social and cultural point of view. The Margini festival focuses attention on street art and will feature street artists of international fame, such as Blu, Ericailcane, Dem and Run, all of whom will be leaving their mark on the area during the festival which aims to be an open air artistic workshop. There will also be exhibition of works by artists including Michelangelo Setola and Riccardo Bargellini, and a series of art workshops organised by the Blu Cammello gallery. Music will be provided by The Cage Club in the form of a dj set (Friday and Saturday at 7.30pm), the Magicaboola Brass Band (Thursday 9.30pm in Shangay), and the Senegalese band Africa Jembee and the Morning Skifflers on Saturday from 6pm to midnight.
