The world’s most famous square as you’ve never heard it before.
Lares Restauri and OpificioQuerini propose a moment made up of people, stories, and musical performances to understand together what ‘San Marco‘ means today and to imagine new strategies to take care of it.
What must and can be done to protect and enhance one of the most known and loved squares in the world? What stories do its buildings and pavement stones hide? What is its possible future?
Interventions by Marco Barbagallo (Lares Restauri), Giovanni Giusto (City of Venice), Alberto Torsello (architect and restoration expert) will alternate with the performance of Giulia Alberti, Diego Mantoan, Andrea Torresan.
Francesca Zaccariotto, councilor for Public Works, City of Venice, will introduce the event.
To conclude: aperitif and DJ set.
Participation is free and open to all, with reservation at this link.
