The Open Museum [Architecture + SelfConstruction]

Periferica is an international festival of urban regeneration that will take place in Mazara del Vallo, Sicily, from 27 July to 5 August. Every year, Periferica brings together associations, universities and businesses to rethink a disused area with students, creative people and inhabitants, through a program of workshops and events. Since 2013, more than 300 students from different parts of Europe have so far participated.

For the fifth edition - the open museum, ancient patrimony for new users - participants will be asked to conceive new solutions for Evocava, the future Mazara cave museum, passing from the analysis phase to the design and self-production phases. The event will take place within the same project area which, for 10 days, will become a micro-village where participants can study, socialize, participate in construction activities and get in touch with the community.

You can apply as a participant or Tutor to one of the 3 workshops by June 15th (or while seats last). The workshops will last 10 days, alternating training, excursions and events, and will include hospitality, meals, and a certificate of participation (3cfu).
