​Celebrating America-Italy Society’s 51st anniversary of restoring works of art in Venice

​Future Restoration Projects
​in Venice 

This year’s focus on Venice celebrates the America-Italy Society’s 51st anniversary as one of the Private Committees dedicated to restoring works of art in Venice. Indeed, AIS was initially established in response to the devastating floods of 1966 which revealed the precarious situation of Italy’s innumerable treasures. AIS has continued to support the preservation of art and architecture in Venice.  Past and current (Crucifix from the Church of San Zaccaria and the unique wooden model of Teatro La Fenice presented in 1790 by architect Giannantonio Selva (1751-1819). ) projects can be found here.
​ 
Donations in support of this project are always welcome.

​​You Can Play a Part in Preserving Venice’s Art Heritage
Each year the Superintendents for the Artistic and Historic Heritage and for the Architectural Heritage of Venice suggest projects in immediate need of restoration. Your contribution in any amount will be appreciated and is tax deductible. Donations for the restoration of Venetian works of art can be made  by sending a check to the “America-Italy Society of Philadelphia — Venice Fund”.

​
For donations over $5,000 we can organize a private guided visit to our restoration projects in Venice.
