About the event

Participants create mandalas inspired by Tibetan tradition, reinterpreted through the use of water and natural pigments.

The repetitive, circular gesture becomes an accessible meditative practice, encouraging attention, grounding and presence. Water guides the movement, turning the creative act into an experience of listening.

Getting to Toscolano-Maderno

The nearest railway station is Desenzano del Garda; from there Arriva bus LN027 (Desenzano – Salò – Gargnano – Limone – Riva del Garda) runs along the Gardesana road through Maderno and Toscolano. By car, leave the A4 at Desenzano del Garda and follow the lake road north via Salò. From the Verona side, the Torri del Benaco – Maderno car ferry is the only road-vehicle crossing of the lake.

Ferry: Maderno is a stop for Navigazione Laghi passenger boats and the terminal of the car ferry to Torri del Benaco: the crossing takes 30 minutes, and in the summer 2026 timetable departures from Maderno ran from 8:00 to 19:15, several per hour at peak.
