Nonostante siamo a metà luglio, mese per eccellenza delle vacanze, in Comunità ancora non si riposa. Nel fine settimana appena passato infatti, gli appassionati della musica e dell’arte hanno avuto più di un motivo per recarsi a Pirano.
Dal 6 luglio era in corso presso Casa Tartini la masterclass internazionale di pittura guidata dal pittore accademico Nik Anikis Skušek. Sala esposizioni si è trasformata per l’occasione in un vero e proprio atelier, dove i partecipanti al laborotorio hanno trovato ispirazione e la calma necessaria per dipingere. Ogni tanto qualche turista che veniva in visita alla stanza memoriale o alla mostra Barche curiosava tra i cavalletti, ma non disturbava il lavoro, anzi erano tutti contenti di dimostrare cosa stavano imparando.
Domenica 14 luglio i lavori realizzati sono stati esposti in Piazza Tartini. Soddisfatti della permanenza e dell’ospitalità presso la nostra sede, sia Nik che i suoi allievi hanno espresso il desiderio di ritornare l’anno prossimo.
Sabato 13 luglio invece si è tenuta presso Sala delle Vedute il concerto dei partecipanti all’Accademia musicale estiva dei professori Antonije Hajdin e Selma Chicco Hajdin e organizzata dalla CAN di Isola. La collaborazione con l’Accademia musicale dura ormai da anni e gli allievi dei professori presentano prima del concerto finale a Isola anche al pubblico piranese ciò che hanno imparato durante il corso.

Čeprav smo sredi julija, ko so poletne počitnice na vrhuncu, v skupnosti še ne počivamo. Ljubitelji glasbe in umetnosti so namreč imeli minuli konec tedna kar nekaj razlogov za obisk Pirana.
Od 6. julija je v Tartinijevi hiši potekala mednarodna slikarska delavnica pod vodstvom akademskega slikarja Nika Anikisa Skuška.
Ob tej priložnosti se je razstavna dvorana spremenila v pravcati atelje, v katerem so lahko udeleženci našli navdih in mir, ki sta za slikanje nujna. Tu in tam je kakšen turist, ki je obiskal spominsko sobo ali razstavo Barke, z radovednostjo opazoval slikarje pri delu, a jih to ni motilo, nasprotno, z veseljem so pokazali, kaj se učijo.
V nedeljo, 14. julija, so nastala dela razstavili na Tartinijevem trgu. Tako Nik kot njegovi učenci so se strinjali, da je bila Tartinijeva hiša odlična gostiteljica delavnice, zato so izrazili željo po vrnitvi tudi prihodnje leto.
V soboto, 13. julija, pa se je v dvorani vedut odvil koncert udeležencev Poletne glasbene akademije v organizaciji italijanske skupnosti iz Izole, ki jo vodita profesorja Antonije Hajdin in Selma Chicco Hajdin. Z glasbeno akademijo sodelujemo že leta, zato učenci že tradicionalno pred glavnim nastopom v Izoli tudi piranskemu občinstvu pokažejo nove veščine, ki so jih osvojili na delavnici.
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
