Charity Exhibition for the Val Bavona and Val Lavizzara Valleys Affected by Severe Weather
Invitation to the Vernissage
Location: Galleria Sacchetti, Ascona
Vernissage: August 2, 2025, at 4:00 PM
We are pleased to invite you to the opening of the charity exhibition, which will take place on Saturday, August 2, 2025, at 4:00 PM, at the CCAA – Center for Culture and Art Ascona.
This is the third exhibition of the year, celebrating the 40th anniversary of Galleria Sacchetti.
In June 2024, a devastating storm caused severe damage in the Ticino valleys of Val Bavona and Val Lavizzara. Many of the destroyed structures have yet to be rebuilt. Funds are still being raised to restore bridges, roads, and buildings.
For this reason, Galleria Sacchetti is organizing a major exhibition-sale to support the reconstruction efforts.
More than 40 artists from Ticino, along with graduates of the Peccia Sculpture School, are contributing one artwork each.
A large portion of the proceeds from sales will be donated by both the artists and the Gallery.
The Municipality of Ascona has granted its patronage to the exhibition.
Entrance to the vernissage on August 2 is, as always, free and open to all.
Charity exhibition dates: August 2 to 17, 2025
Opening hours: Mon–Sat 10:00 AM–12:00 PM, 2:00 PM–8:00 PM
