I chose to leave it in italian, altough Crib Project sounds fine; but I always think the tourist may see ads or posters bearing the original name and therefore would be misleading to give another name, keeping both would be confusing.
thank you everybody!

'Nativity scene' project


Explanation:
Does 'presepe/presepio' not usually mean a Christmas crib? A 'creche' project might be misleading, as the first meaning would be taken as for small children.
