Celebrating art in all its forms: comics, illustration, music, and gastronomy
The LineOut Art Festival arrives for the first time in Corteolona and Genzone, a municipality in the province of Pavia, bringing a format already present in other Italian locations under the auspices of the LineOut Gallery. The event's motto, "Celebrating art in all its forms", well encapsulates the spirit of a festival that aims to be multidisciplinary and accessible, capable of intertwining different artistic expressions in one grand celebration.
At the center of the festival is the first edition of the national comic and illustration competition, open to artists of all ages. The goal is to discover new talents and offer them concrete visibility through publication, live exhibition of the works, and cash prizes. The award ceremony is the highlight of the event, an occasion to celebrate the winners and showcase emerging creativity in the field of drawing and visual storytelling.
Alongside the competition, the LineOut Art Festival offers a program that spans contemporary art, music, gastronomy, performances, and artistic shows. The formula transforms Corteolona and Genzone into a widespread stage, where the exhibited works interact with live music, food stalls, and performances, in a climate of popular celebration and participation.
For the Pavia area, the first edition of the LineOut Art Festival represents an interesting novelty: an event that brings the art of comics and illustration, often confined to major industry fairs, to a provincial town, enhancing it as a place of culture and creativity. Organized by LineOut Gallery in collaboration with the Municipality, it is one of the four sites of the LineOut Art Festival in Italy.
The first edition of the LineOut Art Festival in Corteolona and Genzone takes place from June 12 to 14, 2026, as confirmed by the Municipal calendar. The festival revolves around the national comic and illustration competition open to artists of all ages, which concludes with the award ceremony on Sunday, June 14.
Alongside the competition, a multidisciplinary program of contemporary art, music, gastronomy, performances, and artistic shows animates the Oltrepò pavese municipality. Organized by LineOut Gallery in collaboration with the Municipality.
