Memoria '900

Memoria ’900 is a cultural association for social memory based in Velletri, Italy. Its work brings local history, public discussion, education, and the arts together through events and projects open to the community. The association collaborates with local institutions and cultural partners, including the Municipality of Velletri, the municipal library, and FondArC, to organize presentations, exhibitions, commemorations, and other initiatives.

Its activities include book launches and conversations on historical and social themes, such as the Italian Republic, local wartime history, and the work of writers and educators. Memoria ’900 also promotes photography through its “Scatta Velletri” contest, inviting participants to explore the city through themed and open-subject images. Exhibitions, media content, articles, and an annual archive help share and preserve the association’s work.

People can take part by attending initiatives, entering eligible contests, or joining the association. Membership information and registration are available through its website or by contacting the secretariat. Memoria ’900 provides a platform for remembering, interpreting, and engaging with the history and culture of Velletri.
