"TORINO-CAIRO Round Trip". Along Rice and Silk Routes

In the framework of the Italo-Egyptian year of Science and Technology, the Italian region Piedmont is bringing to Cairo a festival featuring literature readings (in Italian language), art installations, performances and conferences aimed at celebrating rice, silk and wool, products that have been of capital importance in the inter-cultural exchange that has developed in the  Mediterranean basin through the years.
Every evening will be closed by a degustation of gastronomical products from the Piedmont region.

The event will be held at the Italian Social Club, next to the Italian Consulate, 24 El Gaala Street, Boulaq starting at 7:00 PM from Sunday, October 25 to Tuesday October 27, 2009.
 
Free entry but, in order to arrange the degustation, participants are required to register their presence by sending a mail to stagista3.cairo@esteri.it specifying the day in which they wish to attend and their number (rather easy, no?).
