About Sorelle Festival Gambettola

Sorelle Festival is the distributed exhibition dedicated to sisterhood, feminist culture, and the languages of contemporary art that every year, in March, crosses Romagna between Faenza, Riolo Terme, Lugo, Fusignano, and Gambettola. The Gambettola stop, in the province of Forlì-Cesena, finds its home at the Stazione degli Artisti, the space created from the regeneration of the old stationmaster's house, and annually offers a contemporary art exhibition with an opening, meetings, and presentations. Promoted by the Associazione Fatti d'Arte Aps, it has predominantly free admission.

Sorelle Festival arrives in Gambettola

Sorelle Festival is one of the most recognizable cultural events in Romagna: a distributed exhibition that every year, throughout March, enlivens Faenza and a network of Romagna municipalities with a program dedicated to contemporary art, feminist culture, and practices of freedom. Promoted by the Associazione Fatti d'Arte Aps, the festival makes territorial diffusion one of its distinctive features, and among the cities involved is Gambettola, in the province of Forlì-Cesena, on the edge of the Romagna coast.

The stop at the Stazione degli Artisti

In Gambettola, the festival finds its home at the Stazione degli Artisti, in Piazza Martiri d'Ungheria: a cultural space born in 2021 from the urban regeneration of the old stationmaster's house, now a venue for exhibitions, conferences, and workshops. It is here that Sorelle Festival brings its exhibition proposal each year, built around visual arts and the role of women in artistic creation: an evening opening open to the public, followed by weeks of exhibition access.

Art as dialogue

The Gambettola stop is particularly dedicated to the language of visual arts — engraving, painting, photography, installation — and centers the female figure not as an object of the gaze but as a creative subject. It is one of the souls of the festival: overturning archetypes, giving voice to female artists, and transforming visibility into a voice. Openings are often accompanied by book presentations and meetings with the authors.

A distributed and free festival

The Gambettola stop is one of the main ones in the exhibition, along with those in Faenza, Riolo Terme, Lugo, and Fusignano. Included in the program for International Women's Day on March 8th and sponsored by local authorities and the Emilia-Romagna Region, Sorelle Festival offers dozens of events with predominantly free admission, building a loyal and intergenerational audience that experiences Romagna and attends its events for the quality of the proposals.

Sorelle Festival Gambettola — edition 2026

The Gambettola stop of Sorelle Festival 2026

The VII edition of Sorelle Festival brought one of its most anticipated exhibition events to Gambettola, at the Stazione degli Artisti in Piazza Martiri d'Ungheria. The event was part of the distributed program that, in March 2026, crossed Faenza, Riolo Terme, Lugo, Fusignano, and Gambettola, under the claim DIVE – Not out of vanity, but for truth.

The core of the stop was the two-person exhibition La forma dell'incontro (The Shape of Encounter), which overturned the archetype of the muse by transforming the gaze into creative dialogue: the moment the muse stops being silent and becomes an active subject of the artistic process. The exhibition remained open until March 29.
