Among the most important initiatives stands out "Viaggio in Sicilia", a biennial project now in its ninth edition, which aims to represent a nomadic residence for artists. Since 2004, painters, photographers and writers, both Italian and foreign, are guided through the districts of Menfi, Vittoria, Noto, Etna and Capo Milazzo in the days of harvest. Free to storytell with images and emotions the essence of these places. A path, not random, strongly linked to the diversity of landscapes, the character of wines and people who live there, which allows artists to produce extraordinary works. They will enrich, in June of the following year, an exhibition capable of representing these lands of Sicily, with new eyes. "Centenarian Trees" will be the central theme of the 9th edition to be held in October 2021.
La Foresteria Planeta is a wine resort in the heart of western Sicily overlooking a panoramic hill, the sunset and the sea.
