Graniti Artists - Graniti Murales

Where Walls Speak.

Framed by mountains, forests, and lava-carved gorges, this Sicilian gem near Taormina blends heritage with creativity. Each August, the San Sebastiano festival adds fireworks to the palette—proof that Graniti isn’t just a village, but a living gallery inviting the world to walk through art.
