On Saturday 5 October 2024, at the Municipal Auditorium of Lovere in via Marconi, a conference dedicated to Don Angelo Cretti will take place.

The figure of Don Angelo Cretti (1946-2020) cannot be easily framed because his human personality and creativity are so complex and multifaceted that any framing seems reductive. This conference aims to raise awareness of his figure and the scientific value of Concarena, the mountain he loved.
