Before ARTECA

The first Historical Parade

In 2005 the Municipality organised the first Historical Parade of Alberobello. Many citizens were asked to participate, along with many associations and a director to coordinate them. For the occasion the first historical costumes were made.

Birth

Statute and instrument of incorporation

On June 15th, 2007, in the presence of 14 founders, the association named ARTECA (Association to Recover Traditions and Culture of Alberobello) is constituted. The first Statute was approved.

Rebirth

A new beginning

After two years of improper management, on September 2015 the city administration picks up the association to start again.

Reorganization

ARTECA Aps

At the end of 2020, ARTECA decided to renew itself. We adapted our Statute to recent national reforms and we get the form of APS (Association of Social Promotion). The new Statute was registered in March 2021.
Then we decided to give ourself a better structure, so we update our internal regulations too, which were approved in June 2021.
