The keyword of this month is Purpose that, in our opinion, is well connected with another keyword of our history: Resistance. Andrea Vendetti, graphic designer from Rome, tells us his research about the dangerous work of printmakers during Italian Resistance when being creative was necessary to save your skin. Creative Mornings is an international format with the scope of organize a creative breakfast every month. A theme is defined by the international community and every chapter invites a speaker for an inspirational speech. From January 2020, Creative Mornings arrives also in Bologna and Ferrara (BOF) and, in these difficult times, our team is involved in creating virtual events in order to share creative stories with you!
