Cultural promotion
In over 20 years of activity, we have become one of the most active entities of cultural promotion in the province of Lecco. The promotion of travel and responsible tourism cultures and of the knowledge of new cultures represent the way through which Les Cultures works in order to turn barriers into frontiers.
We organize events, film projections and public debates aimed at raising public awareness and stimulating reflection on current topics, including those linked to migration and to the structural problems of some countries in the southern hemisphere.
We print books.
We teach languages.
We make you travel!
