Welcome to the “Il Bottone Foundation”, where the boundaries between art and compassion blend in a timeless harmony. We are the weavers of visions and emotions, the custodians of a sensory experience that transcends the present and embraces eternity.
Charity Project “Ti Ascolto”
Ti Ascolto was created to offer support to those struggling with the silent pain of depression. Born from the loss of a father to suicide, our mission is to shed light on what depression truly is, how to recognize it, and ways to prevent it. In a world that often feels overwhelming and isolating, we are here to provide a beacon of hope for those who feel they’ve lost their way.
ABOUT US
Initially founded as an unrecognized association in Italy, the “Il Bottone Foundation” emerged with the urgency to bring our projects and ideas to life. Over time, we have grown and evolved, and today we are officially recognized as a foundation in the United Kingdom, supported by an international team of six professionals: a strategic consultant, a sociologist, a MSc psychology graduate, a social media manager, an IT expert, and our founder and artistic director.
Events
Empowering art, enriching lives.
Our events are curated to provide a rich sensory experience, guiding visitors through the journey of each piece from conception to creation. These exhibitions allow you to connect with the essence of each artist’s work on a deeper level. In addition, our events offer the opportunity to bid on artworks, with funds raised supporting our foundation’s charitable mission. Through these initiatives, we aim to merge art and philanthropy, using creativity to make a positive impact in the world.
