School of Street Art

60 adolescents in the area, some of whom are experiencing severe economic and social difficulty.

The project foresees the realization of a workshop in street art and cinema at the Villa Bonelli in the Magliana quarter, involved in a process of urban development which is transforming it from a degraded, abandoned place to a School for Street Art that is completely free; an occasion for exchange and personal, cultural and artistic growth for the adolescents living in the quarter, many of whom are facing familial problems and exclusion, and have dropped out of school.

The project is foreseen as a permanent school with activities outside in the park and inside in other locations in the Magliana quarter in order to attract, involve and train adolescents. The street art workshops are to be carried out under the artistic direction of street artists that grew up in the XI municipality, where they began their careers and are now becoming known in Roman and national artistic circles. The cinema workshop, on the other hand, will be carried out with the collaboration of a student collective from the Gian Maria Volontè School of Cinema, a centre of excellence in audiovisual training since 2011, which has its headquarters in the Magliana but which, unfortunately, is today still an island, a fortress that only recently opened up to the life of the quarter thanks to collaboration with Disambigua.
