Bora Mata, now in its seventh edition, is the Museo della Bora event dedicated to the most Trieste thing there is: our wind!
Weekend schedule:
FROM FRIDAY 3rd TO SUNDAY 5th JUNE •
IN PIAZZA UNITÀ BLOSSOMS THE GARDEN OF PINWHEELS It is the most characteristic image of Boramata. The most famous square in Trieste is filled with pinwheels for an extraordinary glance. This year the pinwheels are colored yellow and blue in solidarity with the Ukrainian people. And we hope that soon the winds of peace will take the place of the winds of war. Come and take pictures of yourself and share your shots using the hashtag #boramata
•
JOYCE'S BENCH We pay our homage to 140 years of Joyce and 100 years of Ulysses with a literary bench dedicated simultaneously to the great Irish writer, to the wind of Trieste, but also to the environment, because it is made of recycled material. Installation made thanks to AcegasApsAmga
