SUPPORT
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.
