The Spazio Officina is mainly used for cultural, artistic and educational activities. The building was completely renovated in 2005 by architects Pia Durisch and Aldo Nolli, recovering an old building in the city that had long been used as a car repair shop.
It is available not only for theatres and performances, but also for assemblies, conferences, conventions and other corporate events.
The Spazio Officina is located just a few metres from Corso San Gottardo, the main artery of the town of Chiasso and the Town Hall Square, and is therefore also easily accessible from the motorway (Chiasso Sud exit) and the railway station.
