On Wednesday 10 December, at Bottega Cini (a few steps from the Accademia Bridge), the meeting dedicated to the award ceremony for the young people who took part in the educational and cultural project “Dipingiamo la Libertà a Venezia” (Painting Freedom in Venice) takes place, promoted by Nadia De Lazzari, representative of the Associazione Venezia Pesce di Pace, in collaboration with the Scuola Grande di San Teodoro, Fondazione Archivio Vittorio Cini and BCC Veneta.
The project, which led to the exhibition at the Scuola Grande di San Teodoro (38 paintings and 28 original sketches), involved women detainees of the Giudecca Women’s Prison and students of the Liceo Artistico Statale Marco Polo and of the Istituto Comprensivo Francesco Morosini.

Present are:
• Giovanni Alliata, president of the Fondazione Archivio Vittorio Cini, who purchased the original work “24 mani” (“24 Hands”), a mosaic of paintings created by the students of class 4F of the Marco Polo art school, telling the stories of 24 women detainees;
• Professor Eddy Bettiol of figurative arts, who will accompany his class;
• Roberta Di Mambro, Guardian Grando, who will announce a new initiative dedicated to young artists.
