Nona Day
A three-day unique event that brings all people together, young and old generations, preserves tradition and turn the central park, during the weekend into a big home where it looks like everybody’s grandmother’s home. Since it’s basically about grandmothers sharing their baking and cooking skills, people will gather to eat from granny’s hands, laugh and spend time with each other. Nona Day aims to bring dialogue between generations instead of the growing gap between old and young in these times of increasing anonymisation in urban everyday life.
