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) projects can be found here.
Future projects include assisting with the restoration of unique wooden model of Teatro La Fenice presented in 1790 by architect Giannantonio Selva (1751-1819).
Donations in support of this project are always welcome.
