Open letter to the next government: “Culture is our soul”

Culture is the soul of a country.

He tells it, supports it from the ground up, takes care of it in difficult moments and in complicated historical passages and in dramatic ones. Culture allows the new generations to better interpret and understand the complexity of the future, and the older generations to face the challenges of the present with greater awareness.

Italy is rich in culture and is its most important reference in a large part of the world. Witness the extraordinary artistic heritage, the over seven hundred theaters, the approximately four thousand museums, the over three thousand and five hundred cinemas and all the places where it is told and represented.

Culture is written and told by musicians, writers, poets, actors and actresses of cinema and theater, street artists, singers and artisans of know-how, from all the human heritage that works and holds long live the identity of our country.

Today this sector, which is much more than just one industry, is in great difficulty due to the consequences of the pandemic crisis.

We need to act quickly and to put culture, together with the other strategic sectors for the relaunch of our country, at the center of the political agenda.

The operators of the sector, from museum workers, to the owners of cinemas, theaters, concert halls, auditoriums, libraries and bookstores, to content producers, to all artists, who in recent months have gone on strong with passion and the conviction of the importance of resisting, feeling the responsibility of working in a sector that a country cannot do without.

Cultura🇮🇹Italiae asks the next government to act soon, we already did it with the “Vissi d’Arte” appeal that collected, last autumn at the beginning of the second wave, over 115,000 signatures from citizens and citizens to recognize Culture as an Essential Good, we do it today with this open letter which, as the Councilor for Culture of Milan Filippo Del Corno wrote in a note that we feel we can share, together with the right appeal of the vice president Letizia Moratti and the councilor for culture Stefano Bruno Galli of the Lombardy Region, to intervene for the survival and above all the relaunch not only of one of the nerve centers of the country but of the one that more than any other represents its soul.

We, with different roles and affiliations, take care of culture, we will do our part, we will continue to do our part, and to lend a hand, do not make us feel alone.
