Santa Maria della Scala in Siena reopens internal road, announces fall exhibitions

On November 18, 2023, the Museo di Santa Maria della Scala in Siena unveiled a newly restored section of its internal road, improving accessibility and revitalizing areas such as the former stable and cistern room. Mayor Nicoletta Fabio referred to the location as a 'permanent construction site.' Chiara Valdambrini, who took on the role of director on September 18, 2023, outlined the exhibition schedule through the end of the year, featuring 'Dittici Occasionali' (which opened on October 28) and 'Giuseppe Gavazzi. Una perfetta coincidenza' (set to open on November 23). The exhibition 'In leggerezza. Fausto Melotti. Un omaggio a Italo Calvino' will conclude on December 6, commemorating Calvino's centenary. The museum's board will end on December 31, necessitating a renewal call by November. Valdambrini intends to restore the museum's identity.
