Resumo: The host organization is a volunteer non-profit association founded in 1996 to help organizing Festivaletteratura, an international 5 days’ gathering of writers from all over the world, entertaining the audience with readings, talks, lectures, theatre shows and concerts. Many occasions are created for readers and authors to meet and keep their dialogue alive, and build and ideal place to exchange opinions beyond any barriers, far away from institutions or arid conference rooms. Almost 100,000 are the people of every age coming to Mantova every September, which makes Festivaletteratura one of the most well-known literary events in Italy and Europe and a unique opportunity of sharing ideas and thoughts.
The organization supports the organization of this event also thanks to the commitment of over 300 volunteers, mostly Italians. Every year they contribute to the success of the event, working in various practical activities, such as: secretariat, organization, ticket sales, on-site assistance, accompanying authors, accommodation, logistics, etc.
For the rest of the year our Association works mainly in 2 areas: first of all for the documentary and archiving activities dealing with the previous edition (audio recording of the lectures, pictures and videos, etc.); secondly for the preparation of the following edition, such as the programme arrangement, the individuation of the ideal locations, logistics and stands, promotional material, etc.
During the year, we take care also of other initiatives reinforcing the connections among the members: our headquarters are open to new subscriptions and to offer information, we organise concerts and theatre plays, cinema shows, and we edit a newsletter.
