Strade dell'Arte in Monteverde (Spring Edition)

An open-air museum in the heart of Monteverde

Strade dell'Arte in Monteverde is a grassroots event that, for one full day, turns one of Rome's most vibrant neighborhoods into a large open-air gallery. Born from the Monteverde Cultura project, the initiative aims to showcase the extraordinary number of artistic entities that bring the area to life: in recent years, Monteverde has increasingly established itself on the capital's visual arts scene, thanks to the opening of exhibition spaces, galleries, and artist studios.

The fifth edition: April 18, 2026

On Saturday, April 18, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM, galleries and artistic spaces in the district will remain open with free admission. Around thirty artists, studios, and spaces will welcome you to share their work and passion for art. It is a unique opportunity to meet artists in their ateliers, witness live demonstrations, and discover temporary exhibitions that continue in the following weeks.

Galleries, studios, and workshops open to the public

Numerous spaces are participating in the spring edition, each with its own exhibition proposal:

• ArtSharing Roma with the solo exhibition by Bruno Melappioni, Duplices - lines of reality between rationality and creation;
• Centro Sperimentale di Fotografia Adams with the photography exhibition Katmandu: travel diary and demonstrations on the use of pinhole cameras;
• Galleria Barattolo with the Spring Salon and Galleria Prencipe with In the gardens of the body;
• spaces dedicated to ceramics and craftsmanship such as I Love Ceramica, L'Albero di Terracotta, Tana de Coccio, and mosaic art with MosaicOfficina;
• numerous artist studios including Studio 420, Studio Orma, Studio Paolo Cazzella, Studio Poerio 16B, Studio SASHA Art&Design, Officina Kreativa, and many others.

A walking itinerary through the Colli Portuensi

The participating spaces are spread along a route of approximately six kilometers that crosses Monteverde Vecchio, Monteverde Nuovo, Gianicolense, and the Colli Portuensi. The organizers provide a map downloadable from their website, allowing you to build your own itinerary between the stops. The area is easily accessible by public transport and is perfect for slow exploration, strolling from one studio to the next.

Monteverde Cultura and Art Sharing Roma

The event is organized by the Associazione Art Sharing Roma ETS as part of the Monteverde Cultura project, which promotes the network of local artists and artisans. Alongside the spring event, editions are held in other seasons throughout the year, a testament to a creative community that continues to grow in this corner of Rome, in Municipality XII of the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, in Lazio.
