<!– @page { margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } –> An ideal location for networking and setting up special events in the post-fair phase? The “Ai Conti” restaurant in Arco can make the difference for those looking to organise meetings with clientele so they can present their collections.

Located in the heart of Arco, the restaurant is situated in a historic central palace dating back to the end of the 15th century and was originally owned by the Arco counts until the mid-19th century, when it became the property of the Marchetti family for which it is named today. In 2016, it underwent a series of important renovations that brought exquisite depictions and architectural elements to light in the frescoed rooms, which are now restored to their full and magnificent glory.

This is the elegant setting that gives life to the unforgettable experience of “Art&Shoes”, the original format organised by Expo Riva Schuh under the flag of Food&Shoes Experience. An evening rendezvous that finds all the perfect ingredients to create a recipe in the spirit of fashion and art, in a striking setting where it’s possible to put individual style under the spotlight while making contacts and networking.

The upper floor of Marchetti Palace with its splendid rooms, perfect for creating an exclusive art gallery dedicated to the exhibition of fashion and footwear collections, will astonish guests and customers during a dinner or aperitif. The space, where fashion interacts with art and history, is characterised by a foyer decorated with a series of frescos depicting the four gods Mars, Ceres, Neptune and Diana, and by three naturally-lit independent rooms that are easily adaptable to a wide variety of uses and ready to greet guests with a local menu expertly prepared and presented by the Chef, in a harmonious combination of sight and taste.

This unique setting, which first with the Arco counts and then with the Marchetti family, made the history of the city, today is given new life thanks to Art&Shoes, presenting an exclusive showcase that promises visions, emotions, and tastes without equal.
