The inaugural event of the twenty-first edition of the International Satire Exhibition curated by the Andromeda Art Studio, with authors from all over the world. The exhibition will be open from 10.00 to 18.00, from 20 to 24 May 2026

The palace was built shortly before 1740 on the initiative of the noble Trentini family. The façade, developed in height and characterized by a sober balcony, is among the most elegant of the eighteenth century in Trentino. The interior rooms were decorated between 1750 and 1765 by the Veronese painters Giorgio Anselmi and Orlando Fattori, the Bolzan painter Carl Henrici and the Milanese painter Pietro Antonio Bianchi. Also notable are the exuberant white and gold stucco and the majolica stoves in rococo shapes.Palazzo Trentini is now the seat of the Council of the Autonomous Province of Trento, with the Presidency and all the offices of the entity. The Sala dell 'Aurora, which will host some of the Festival's events, is considered the Palace's most prestigious venue. It is dominated by a large vault decorated with fake architecture and frescoed around 1750 with the Triumph of the Dawn, an allegory of the rise of the Trentini family, by an excellent Venetian school artist whose identity is still disputed by scholars.

The square is named after Resistance martyr Mario Pasi, who served as a doctor at the Trento hospital during World War II. Embellished by the fountain produced by Andrea Malfatti depicting the god Bacchus, the small square has been a meeting point since the 14th century, where peasants bargained wages with landowners.

How a (real) buffalo is born

A dynamic, informal and engaging theatrical happening on the themes of financial education by Martina dell 'Eva (disseminator) and Alessio Kogoj (actor): girls and boys are often asked to choose very soon who they want to become, what work they will do, where they will live, but they are rarely offered a space to ask themselves what the future and work combination means in practice. The proposal stems from this need: to create a theatrical experience that focuses on future work as a result of conscious decisions.Participation is by reservation at the MUSE.

Palazzo Calepini, currently serving as the headquarters for Fondazione Caritro, dates back to the late 16th century and was built at the behest of the noble Calepini family from the Giudicarie valleys. Between 1823 and 1844, Palazzo Calepini served as the seat of the Prince Bishops of Trento. In 1999, the building was acquired by the foundation to be used as their institutional headquarters.
