The Cartoon Club festival is proud to present the Fede a Strisce Award, a unique recognition of its kind in Italy.
This award is given to Italian productions, published in the last 2 years, that have best conveyed religious values through the medium of comics.
The jury is made up of critics and reviewers, journalists, and professionals working in the comic world. The goal is to improve the exchange and circulation of works often doomed to oblivion and rejection.
Since 2011, the Award has been named after Roberto Ramberti and, since 2021, also after his wife Armanda Amati, Franciscan tertiaries committed to helping people with disabilities and marginalized communities. A heartfelt thanks from the Festival goes to the Ramberti family, who support this award, especially Alessandro, owner of Fara Editore.
The award is under the patronage of FISC (Italian Federation of Diocesan Weekly Newspapers).
We hope that the Fede a Strisce Award can serve as an inspiration for artists and enthusiasts, and continue to be a beacon of hope and unity in the contemporary cultural landscape.
