On the two weekends of March 9-10 and March 16-17,<\/strong> FRH’s Cannero Riviera Center workers and those of the Museum Network will offer from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m. a free multisensory workshop “Citrus fruits in all senses<\/u>“<\/strong> in the garden of Villa Laura<\/strong>, home of the Ethnographic Museum, or inside in case of bad weather.<\/p>\n\n The second “inclusive” proposal are guided tours in Lis (International Sign Language) of the Citrus Park (from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m. on Sundays, March 10 and 17), which will be conducted by operators of the Upper Verbano Museum Network on Sundays, March 10 and 17 from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n The workshop experience “Citrus fruits in all senses,” which is produced by FRH in collaboration with the Alto Verbano Museum Network and the Municipality of Cannero Riviera, will be all for adults and children to experience with the help of their senses to recognize different fruits through scents, textures, flavors, colors…<\/p>\n\n At the four stations at the Museum, it will be possible to play with fruits to discover their characteristics<\/strong>. By just sticking their hands inside some boxes touching, rubbing, caressing peels and leaves, the challenge will be to guess whether an orange or grapefruit is hiding inside, rather than a tangerine or a “Buddha’s Hand” cedar… By smell alone, participants will then have to identify to which type of fruit some smelled essences belong, while tasting the juices, offered by Novacoop, will test the sense of taste. <\/p>\n\n Each discovery will be enhanced by a card where some information written in black (high-contrast font) and Braille will be given.<\/strong> A panel will depict an illustrated drawing of a “facilitation” by which visually impaired and blind children cared for by the Robert Hollman Foundation are introduced to the knowledge of scents and essences in general with their senses.<\/p>\n\n SOLIDARITY CAMPAIGN FOR THE “PAGES FOR ALL” PROJECT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n On the occasion of the workshops within the Cannero event, the association Blue Flowers Friends of the Robert Hollman Foundation will set up a spot<\/strong> at Villa Laura with sweet treats from its Easter fundraising campaign, which this year supports the “Pages for All” project<\/strong> to set up a library of tactile picture books at the two Centers in Cannero and Padua<\/strong> to be made available to children and their families.<\/p>\n\n For a minimum donation of 7 euros<\/strong> in return you will receive a 300 gram milk or dark egg or a bag of milk and cereal eggs of the same weight.<\/p>\n\n Also on Canner days, the Foundation will decorate the bitter orange tree placed in the flowerbed at the entrance to its headquarters at No. 6 Via Oddone Clerici. The plant was planted two years ago, in September 2022, by President Claire de Pont, in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Robert Hollman’s passing and reaffirming the Foundation’s deep connection with the City of Cannero Riviera.<\/p>\n\n Once again this year, the Robert Hollman Foundation confirms its participation in “The Citrus Fruits of Cannero Riviera,” the event that, by now a tradition, takes place in March to exalt the Mediterranean fruits and their wonderful varieties that find on the shores of Lake Maggiore a perfect habitat where they flourish and thrive.
