Francine Massiani
I’ve been delighted to support the Creazione! festival for a few years now. For me, it is one of the finest showcases for the island’s creative talent, a showcase that feels like a treasure trove, welcoming creators and artists who, for a few days, come to reveal their work, share their ideas, meet one another and bring out the very best in their materials… My primary motivation is art and creativity; my second, and by no means least, is the human adventure. A genuine bond has been forged over the years – bonds of friendship, trust and camaraderie – which, for me, are a true mark of quality! Every year is a celebration in this Bastia citadel! I would like to thank Véronique Calendini & Andrée Antoni, as well as the whole team at the Bastia Tourist Office, for welcoming me with such kindness and trust to this wonderful event that is Creazione!
Muriel Piaser
I am deeply honoured to support CREAZIONE and to select one of its Corsican talents to showcase at my B2B trade show, PRECIOUS ROOM by Muriel Piaser, in 2024. This is perfectly in line with my long-standing philosophy, as an expert in the fashion and jewellery industry, of discovering brands and introducing them to my French and international network so that they can take off and shine. CREAZIONE is undoubtedly a key player in the promotion of Corsican and Mediterranean brands; it is an essential event that I am delighted to be taking part in.

Lucille Lorand
Lucille, an influencer from Bastia with nearly 50,000 followers, uses her social media reach to showcase the talents of our island. It is, in fact, this desire to shine a spotlight on the island’s creative scene that led her to launch the Figura Box, a quarterly subscription box featuring Corsican designers. Having been involved since the very first edition of the Creazione festival, this year Lucille will be sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses and updates on the festival’s proceedings via social media, so she can share her experiences and discoveries with her community.
