We design the city of the future: DVArea for Bergamo-Brescia Italian Capital of Culture 2023

DVArea · 2 May 2023

On the occasion of Bergamo and Brescia being designated as Italian Capital of Culture 2023, DVArea is spearheading a series of events and initiatives entitled “Designing the City of the Future”, offering a fresh perspective on innovation and sustainability, while emphasising the potential of urban regeneration, environmental protection, and digitalisation.

Five free-entry events, open to the entire community, featuring talks, urban walks, conferences, virtual experiences and workshops for students aged 7 to 24. The venue will be the square opposite DVArea’s headquarters, located at Viale Duca d’Aosta 28 in Brescia, which will be transformed for the occasion into a meeting and discussion place.

The first meeting is scheduled for Thursday, 25 May, from 6 to 8 pm, entitled “We design the city of the future: the vision of those who innovate”. Follow us on social media for full details and updates.

Upcoming events
The programme for the forthcoming meetings includes talks, urban trekking, virtual experiences, round tables, live painting and moments of celebration. A schedule aimed not only at sector professionals, but open to the entire community: to children, students, and anyone interested in the city as a space for living, as a social space for growing together, as a neighbourhood, a community, and a society.

Thursday, 8 June – The social function of art
Thursday, 22 June – The places of living
Thursday, 7 September – Metaverse and virtual worlds
Thursday, 5 October – We design the city of the future: a practical approach
