In the following years the Department of Tourism, Sport and Entertainment sponsored the first exhibitions and gave a new arrangement to the place by providing free electricity supply and jute panels sewn around metal armor.

Via Margutta gave the impression of a lively main street of a small town dotted with numerous workshops where artists and artisans collaborated with each other, exchanging creativity and materials.

The bar at 53 via Margutta, near the intersection of via Alibert, was a meeting place for artist, including Giulio Turcato, Corrado Cagli, Renato Guttuso, Renzo Vespignani, Alberto Burri, Sante Monachesi, Gabriele Patriarca, Pericle Fazzini, Mimmo Rotella, Gino Zocchi, and Barbara Berardicurti.

In spring and autumn, the artists decorated with their works via Margutta, via Alibert, via degli Orti di Napoli and vicolo del Babuino, as well as all the characteristic adjacent patios.

Many artists have admired and currently sing the praises of the role played by the association, among them Paolo Salvati, Novella Parigini, Rinaldo Caressa, Antonio Servillo, and Generoso Pompa.
