Product Description
In Catania, when the stones of our dark beach were transformed into sharks and ladybugs, Sicily began its journey in this unique form of artistic expression. It is accurate that everything that is out of the ordinary is ultimately accepted by the powers that be, and this includes our urban spaces. The tales behind the paintings, on the other hand, continue to convey themes of resistance, retreat, acceptance, identification, or simply beauty. The Free Catania Alternative Street Art tour lasts roughly 3.5 hours and is accessible to those with disabilities.Duration: 3.5 Hours
Available in English
