Crunchy Talks - Tales from Midlife Journeys is a long term project aiming to redefine the conversation around middle age and came to Storyhouse as part of the venue's Women Annual Programme. The talks aim to challenge stereotypes and old clichés, helping people to rethink the way they approach midlife. Created and led by Michela Di Carlo, founder and editor of crunchytales.com, the first illustrated online magazine for women over 40, the events try to encourage middle-aged women to speak up, stepping out of their comfort zone and embracing their age with a positive attitude.

My interview with the most influential italian contemporary artist during the Premio Terna award in 2010. His dreams, and his projects with "Cittadellarte" ( a name which implies both a fortified enclave and a city of art). Cittadellarte was founded by Pistoletto in his hometown of Biella, Italy (near Turin) in 1998. There, he developed an institution structured around several autonomous and self-organized offices geared toward a multiplicity of topics such as art, economics, education, politics, ecology, and communication.
