Dr. Martens Brings With Bouncing Soles to Milan: Workshops, Stand-Up and Music at Arci Bellezza

On Sunday, September 27, 2026, Dr. Martens will present With Bouncing Soles at Arci Bellezza in Milan, a daylong event running from 10:00 to 23:00 that combines music, craftsmanship, and creativity. The historic Milanese venue at Via G. Bellezza 16/A will host a diverse community of artists, makers, performers, and the public. The event opens with a yoga session, followed by hands-on workshops led by three Milanese entities: Laboratorio Riciclo Pelle, which transforms discarded leather into new objects using traditional techniques reinterpreted for contemporary contexts; Jcosky Hats, founded by Isacco Zanon and Eliza Oanca, which explores hats as artistic objects through millinery techniques and contemporary language; and Blocchi Scomposti, a collaborative print project founded by Lara Leru and Cecilia Valagussa, where participants create images using artisanal stamps and modular compositions. In the afternoon, Giada Biaggi performs stand-up comedy, bringing an ironic and unfiltered perspective. The day concludes with a musical performance by Marta Del Grandi, an Italian artist and Dr. Martens ambassador. Participation is free but requires registration, with links available for workshops and evening events on DICE. The event aims to present creativity as a concrete process involving hands, words, and music, rather than something abstract.
