Fiat 500 Italia Club Museum

In August I made a special visit to the Fiat 500 Italia Club Museum

I have always enjoyed photographing the beloved “Cinquecento,” the Fiat 500, all across Italy and other countries. In August 2025 I had the privilege of receiving a tour of the 500 Club Italia Museum in Garlenda. The museum was founded in 1984 to preserve and promote the culture (and adoration) of the Fiat 500. I'm pictured here with Francesca Caneri (Public Relations Manager) and Domenico Romano (Museum founder).

The September/October 2025 issue of 4 Piccole Ruote, the Club's monthly magazine, includes an article on my work photographing Fiat 500s around Europe, accompanied by several of my images.

You can learn more about the Fiat 500 Italia Club at their website.

UPDATE! The Museum had selected one of my photos of a Fiat 500 to be added to their permanent collection, and in December 2025 I returned to Garlenda to make the official presentation of the work.
