The right-hand man

The right-hand man

What can Joseph’s faithful helper, who remained in Nazareth to run the store when his master left for Bethlehem and then Egypt, tell us?
What and how many secrets of the Holy Family will he know and be able to reveal to us?

from 23 December 2026 to 10 January 2027

The right-hand man

The Yarikh’s gaze

Having completed the cycle of the ‘excluded’, we will inaugurate with this crib the strand of the ‘chosen ones’: to tell the story of the first Christmas will be the very lucky few who were in the front row, the best witnesses to the birth of Jesus. We will begin with Yarikh, but… who was he/she?

from 23 December 2027 to 9 January 2028

For the following years we already have many ideas, some of which have yet to be fully examined. We are also ready to receive proposals; the address to which to send suggestions and notifications is presepe@pozzodellacava.it

Every five years the theme of the Angel returns, although declined each time in a totally different way. The next edition with the suspended angel of light inside the Pozzo della Cava is scheduled for Christmas 2024.
