**[PRENOTAZIONI QUI](https://www.eventbrite.it/e/il-cane-infernale-spettacolo-darte-di-burattini-gratuito-tickets-1988900189005?aff=oddtdtcreator)** Uno **spettacolo d’arte di burattini** gratuito sta per arrivare a Slow Mill! Giuseppe Verdi e Richard Wagner durante una passeggiata in città discutono di melodramma e tragedia. Il Maestro si accalora un po’ troppo andandosene in malo modo e così Wagner decide di dare una lezione a lui e a tutta la città: sguinzagliando il suo feroce cane, Tannhäuser, per scatenare l’apocalisse. Dopo varie malefatte, la Duchessa, su consiglio del piccolo Lomè, promette un premio a chi libererà la città dal Cane Infernale. Arriveranno così da ogni dove improbabili Cacciatori di Taglie, ma nessuno riuscirà a catturarlo. Solo un uomo, Giuseppe Verdi, lo domerà liberando così la città dall’ondata di ultra-violenza, cambiando l’approccio: usando per una volta il pensiero invece della solita violenza.Alla fine sarà la musica ad ammansire la Belva. **Burattinaio:** Patrizio Dall’Argine **Assistente:** Veronica Ambrosini **Burattini, scene, costumi:** Patrizio Dall’Argine, Veronica Ambrosini **Durata:** 50 minuti **Età consigliata:** dai 3 anni Slow Mill è gestito dall’Associazione “Dora e Pajtimit” APS . Il tesseramento all’Associazione, del costo di 5€, è obbligatorio e ha la durata di 1 anno. Lo slowmill offre ad ogni nuovo membro un drink!

Maggio, il mese dei fiori… e della rinascita 🌸 Il momento perfetto per rallentare, respirare e ritagliarti uno spazio tutto tuo. Quale fiore ti rappresenta davvero? Quello che ami, quello che senti tuo, o quello che oggi parla di te. In questo workshop ogni partecipante sceglierà il proprio fiore e lo trasformerà in un dipinto ad acquerello. Non è richiesta alcuna esperienza tecnica: potrai esprimerti liberamente, anche in modo astratto, seguendo il tuo istinto e le tue emozioni. Se preferisci, potrai lasciarti guidare da stencil con diverse forme floreali. 💧 L’acquerello, con i suoi tempi lenti e i suoi movimenti fluidi, diventa un gesto calmante e rilassante: un modo per lasciare andare il controllo e ritrovare leggerezza, colore dopo colore. 🌼 Giocheremo anche con il linguaggio dei fiori, scoprendo simboli, significati e messaggi nascosti… per connetterci ancora di più a ciò che scegliamo di rappresentare. Saremo all'esterno del locale nel suo bellissimo giardino che sarà ispirante per la pratica 😊 (in caso di maltempo saremo all'interno). **Attenzione! Early bird 12€ per iscrizioni entro domenica 17 maggio.** **☕** **Contributo workshop:** **15€** comprensivi di: - mia guida – carta da acquerello – acquerelli – pennelli – stencil - acqua al tavolo - il tuo disegno che porterai a casa con te 🌸 Eventuali ulteriori consumazioni al bar saranno a carico di ciascun partecipante. Quota da poter versare tramite paypal o satispay. Si prega di confermare la presenza entro venerdì 15 maggio. Se il workshop sarà rinviato la quota verrà restituita. Possibilità di cancellare prenotazione entro 48h con rimborso quota. gruppo whatsapp: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/JPeImG8EK1P82157K4izWP?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/JPeImG8EK1P82157K4izWP?mode=gi_t) ✨ Questo non è un corso di pittura, ma uno spazio sicuro di espressione. Un momento per esplorare la tua idea di femminilità, senza giudizio, senza regole, senza aspettative. Solo tu, il colore… e il tuo fiore. 🌷 Ti va di scoprire quale sei?
