About Pittori in Contrada

Pittori in Contrada transforms the historic center of Conegliano into an open-air art gallery. Every September, dozens of painters from all over Italy exhibit their canvases along Via XX Settembre and Piazza Cima, amidst the frescoed palaces of the city's most beautiful district. A historic event organized by the Associazione Contrada Granda, where art meets Venetian architecture and visitors can admire, and sometimes purchase, works directly from the artists.

An open-air gallery

Pittori in Contrada is one of the most characteristic events in Conegliano, in the province of Treviso, and for decades it has distinguished the city's September. The initiative, organized by the Associazione Contrada Granda with the patronage of the Municipality, transforms the city's main street into a true open-air art gallery.

Canvases along Via XX Settembre

The works are displayed along the entire Via XX Settembre and in Piazza Cima, between the frescoed palaces and arcades that make this district one of the most evocative corners of the Veneto region. Dozens of painters, including some from outside the region, exhibit their art and have the opportunity to sell some of their works to visitors.

Art and the city

The open-air gallery formula combines the appreciation of art with the discovery of the historic center, in a direct dialogue between artists and the public. An anticipated event, capable of attracting thousands of visitors and confirming Conegliano's artistic and cultural vocation.
