MAGAZINE

The magazine "Il Mio Salotto" was born from the desire to talk about art at 360 degrees through the pen of authors with different nationalities, tastes, and styles. This is a thoughtful choice, not to show you just one point of view, but several, exploring and opening your mind to different narrative styles and cultural, and personal, backgrounds.

If you are passionate about art, of any kind, and have experience in writing blog articles, and would like to write for "Il Mio Salotto", send us an email to info@ilmiosalotto.com
