Open day BistròBand

Certainly! Here is the translation of the Italian text into English:

---

On Saturday, September 13th, from 10 am to 1 pm, in the Infernetto district, Bistròband, a non-profit social cooperative committed to building a cohesive and participative educational community, announces the transformation of its spacious and comfortable venue into a true social hub to welcome professionals, associations, artists, and families, which will be presented to the area with an open day. With a vocation oriented towards territory regeneration and sharing, the space will become a point of reference for the community, where people with different backgrounds and interests can meet, collaborate, and offer activities to the citizens.

The initiative stems from Bistròband's desire to become a facilitator of projects and a promoter of creative synergies. The hub will offer modular spaces for co-working, workshops, events, and meetings, creating a dynamic ecosystem for the development of new ideas and collaborations.

"Our dream has always been to give back to the community a lively and dynamic space," stated Giovanni Broccoli, president of Bistròband. "On Saturday, September 13th, with the open day where we will present our initiatives, we are realizing this desire, offering a space for meeting and growth for everyone, where positive energies can come together and generate value for the community."

Bistròband invites professionals, associations, artists, families, and individual citizens to discover the new space and propose initiatives and activities that can enrich the offerings of the nascent hub. Courses planned for the year include Creative Writing, Painting, Gentle Gymnastics, Ceramics, Percussions, Group Dances, Chess, Aromatherapy, Theater, DJ Setting, Sound Bath, Team Building, and Create Your Website. Also planned is a meet and talk project to map the area's excellences.

BistròBand is located at Via Cavareno, 51. For further information, to book your place in the courses, to rent the venue for parties and events, or to propose a collaboration, you can contact 338 5051390 – info@bistroband.it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1Z4JTFMvT4
