“Nessiah” in Hebrew means journey. Not just physical displacement, but inner journey, search for meaning, crossing places, stories, identities. It is from this vision that, for almost thirty years, the Nessiah Festival has proposed a cultural itinerary in Tuscany that traverses the many forms of contemporary Jewish expression: music, theater, speech, art, and memory.

For its thirtieth anniversary edition, from November 22nd to December 15th, 2026, Nessiah looks to the world of science, and chooses to do so through a figure who has combined intellectual rigor, tireless curiosity, and freedom of thought: Rita Levi-Montalcini.
