The Unesco Club of Udine presents an innovative initiative that combines art, territory and social inclusion. “Celiberti for Unesco – History, Nature and Art” features the works of master Giorgio Celiberti, dean of Friulian artists, placed in the gardens of three prestigious historical residences: Palazzo Orgnani in Udine, Villa Attems in Lucinico (Gorizia) and Villa Pace in Tapogliano.
The project has a special significance: Villa Pace represents an ideal connection point with Friuli’s three Unesco sites-Cividale, Palmanova, and Aquileia-and holds the memory of physician Gaetano Perusini, a key figure in the definition of Alzheimer’s disease.
The initiative aims to actively engage young people and raise awareness of neurodegenerative diseases through art and contact with nature.
The project will be presented on September 25 at 6 p.m. at the Monastery of Santa Maria in Valle in Cividale del Friuli.
Free visits to the gardens of participating historic houses will be possible on the following dates:
October 3 and 4, 2025
November 7 and 8, 2025
December 12 and 13, 2025
January 23 and 24, 2026
February 6 and 7, 2026
March 13 and 14, 2026
At the same time, it will also be possible to visit the interior of the villa at a cost of 10 euros per person. Free admission for minors.
Appointment on Oct. 5 at Villa Pace with a conference on therapeutic green and the presentation of the book“Saving Yourself with Green” by Andrea Mati, professor at the Master of Therapeutic Horticulture at the University of Bologna. The event, held in collaboration with the Alzheimer’s Association Udine ODV and ADSI, inaugurates a pathway that interweaves cultural promotion and wellness.
