Simposio Returns to Rome with Four Creative Jam Sessions

festival-fair · 2026-04-27

The third edition of Simposio, a cultural project by NONE Collective, returns to Rome with a new format: four 48-hour creative jam sessions held from March to June 2020 at NONE's studio in Via Libetta. Each session, limited to 30 participants, focuses on a specific theme and produces a fanzine, video, and sound track. The themes are: Rifugi dopo l'apocalisse (March 13-14), Sogno e son desto (April 3-4), Boredom (May 15-16), and Siamo un mito (June 12-13). Registration opens online per session. The project abandons frontal teaching for circular exchange of ideas. Previous editions included a retreat in Borca di Cadore with over 200 people under the slogan Utopia Reale.
