Exhibition sows seeds of inspiration in Italian students

17/04/2025

The exhibition ‘Amici per la Pelle’ has begun its tour of schools in Italy, with the aim of inspiring students to work in the leather sector.

It began at the Banti middle school in Santa Croce sull’Arno, with the launch event attended by representatives of the tanners’ association.

The town’s mayor, Roberto Giannoni, commented that many students, inspired by the project in previous years, had sought work within the sector.

The exhibition then moved to the Leonardo da Vinci Institute in Castelfranco di Sotto.

In the coming weeks, it will head to schools in Ponte a Egola, Fucecchio and Santa Maria a Monte.
