Paper Arcades Returns to Turin: Two Kilometers of Books Under the City Center Arcades
The event transforms city streets into an open-air library extending for two kilometers
Turin is preparing to welcome Portici di Carta, the event that transforms the city center into a long open-air library. As TorinoToday reports, the initiative unfolds for two kilometers along the city's arcades, offering passersby a path through editorial proposals in the heart of the city.
A Walk Among Books
The idea behind the event, as the local newspaper emphasizes, is to make culture accessible through a simple walk: those who stroll through the arcades of the center find themselves immersed in a distributed book exhibition, without needing to enter a specific venue.
The formula aims to bring books directly under the arcades of the center, in an informal and open context for all.
