Allura – The Trail Valletta turned Malta’s capital into an art lover’s paradise for two days, thanks to the Melita Foundation. This free event opened up artist studios to the public, perfect for aspiring artists, hobbyists, and art fans. It created a friendly vibe where everyone could learn from seasoned artists while exploring cool cultural spots around Valletta. The Melita Foundation aim was to help boost cultural exchange and get more people excited about art. By making art accessible and engaging, Allura encouraged creativity and artistic expression within the community.

Allura’s projects and events involve artists, charities, sponsors, educational and ecclesiastical institutions, hotels, retailers, brands and other stakeholders. Allura understands that art-lovers are no longer interested purely in the finished artwork, but also in the artists themselves and the stories behind their work.  This project is designed to impart artistic knowledge, skills and the artistic process to other artists, art students and the public. With a variety of genres, styles, concepts, and techniques, the final production will also serve as a learning resource in schools and ultimately preserve Malta’s finest contemporary artists after their lifetime for future generations to enjoy.
