Our History
“Creativity is an attempt to resolve a conflict generated by unexploded instinctive biological urges, so unfulfilled desires are the driving force of fantasy and fuel night dreams and daydreams."
FREUD
Bottega d'Arte Sociale APS was founded by absorbing the association Teatro Voce established in 2018 for the design of theatrical workshops . It evolves in the year 2021 (new company name by affiliation to the Arci circuit and new management) expanding to other means to achieve its objectives using the Craftsmanships and their Arts as means of social inclusion, development of skills and integration into the working world.
"The conditions for creativity must be interlaced: we have to be focused. We have to accept conflicts and tensions. Be reborn every day. Feel a sense of self."
FROMM
