Museo Artium

"Artium" representa un lugar donde se conservan las tradiciones ligadas a las artes y oficios de antaño que, además de tener un importante valor histórico, cultural y etnoantropológico, hunde sus raíces en las habilidades manuales del mundo artesanal que han caracterizado la tierra de Sicilia a lo largo de los siglos. Las salas subdivididas por temas como en los antiguos talleres artesanales albergan, además de las herramientas típicas, una colección de obras pintadas sobre el tema de la "Antigua Artesanía" creadas y narradas por las hábiles manos de la artista Grazia Trovato en un ciclo que enriquece la reconstrucción de la artesanía tradicional siciliana.
