October 9, 2026 / 10.00 am - 6.00 pm / TRENTO
The event will be held from Thursday 8 to Sunday 11 October 2026 at the Pavilion of Piazza Duomo in Trento and at the MUSE, as part of Autumnus. The MUSE offers a route dedicated to urban biodiversity, to discover the city as a complex ecosystem rich in plant and animal species. Through a photographic exhibition, a scientific talk, thematic corners and workshops for families, it will be possible to learn about the spontaneous plants that grow in urban environments, bees and other pollinators, mosquitoes present in the territory and native plant species.
The initiative also allows us to deepen the ecological value of agricultural areas, dry stone walls and urban green spaces, discovering research and Citizen Science projects. The final day offers creative activities dedicated to young and old, including watercolour, biodiversity and crochet.
