A four-day journey into the universe of fantasy and creativity. From November 28th to December 1st (plus 2 subsequent “off” dates), Alghero takes a leap into the world of comics and its surprising intersections with other expressive languages: literature, theater, music and illustration. It is the festival di:segni , now in its second edition, organized by the Alghero Fumetto association (founded and made up of 3 passionate booksellers and event organizers: Emiliano Longobardi, Maria Luisa Perazzona and Elia Cossu) and created with the support of the Sardinia Region, the Sassari Chamber of Commerce - Salude & Trigu call, the Municipality of Alghero and the Alghero Foundation. There will be many guests on the rich calendar of graphic novel presentations, theater shows, screenings and musical readings - all with free admission - between Lo Quarter, the Biblioteca del Mediterraneo and the Teatro Civico. Among these, two absolute legends who have made the history of world drawing: the Argentine cartoonist José Muñoz and the Italian illustrator Lorenzo Mattotti.
