With these important cultural passages, we have every opportunity to set an example to look to the future with confidence “.

For the regional councilor Silvia Cestarothe organization of the exhibition set up by the association Art Dolomites it constitutes an excellence of the territory, especially because Cima was an example for the ability to bring out the soul of things and landscapes, to transmit it to posterity. The President of the Province thinks so too, Robert Padrinfor which the exhibition dedicated to Cima is the signal to restart and to come together to admire something beautiful.
