How to find us
There are two nearby streets called “via alla Bozzoreda”: public and private. We are on the private one, which is not on the GPS. To find us, set the GPS on Via alla Bozzoreda nr 46: you will reach the white CROCE VERDE building. Ideally stand facing the entrance (with shelter), then look left: you will see a secondary road running internally and following the river. Take it and drive 200 mt: you will find the Centro Artistico MAT after an iron gate. Big free parking.
