Venice is a physical space, which is characterised by very particular environmental conditions and by an inevitable historical heritage, but it is also a “mind space” which transcends the permanence of its territory. Venice can and should “adopt” its visitors while at the same time “letting itself be adopted by them”.
The web community myvenice.org seeks to convolve people who are or who have been in contact with Venice, people who are attentive and take interest in Venice’s development and the particular solutions that concerns it:
Advanced tourists
All those that participate or have participated in the organising of the continual events of the city (exhibitions, cinema, theatre & conferences)
Non-residents who own residential property in the city
All those who, while residing in other parts of the world, have maintained a symbolic tie to the city where they once lived or worked.
As a first step towards the construction of the community the site www.myvenice.org has been started along with a newsletter service for those who we have defined as “stakeholders of Venice”. The newsletter will be distributed by e-mail four times a year and it will serve as an instrument of information, updating and interaction for its receivers. The publications will operate within a number of selected themes:
Main feature
Projects
Tours
Processes
Virtual citizenship
Venice elsewhere
Venice in numbers These themes will be developed continuously on the basis of the feedback coming from the participants in the web community.
