NSD2019 will be held in Venice at  "Centro Culturale Don Orione Artigianelli". The Center is a large architectural complex of approximately 10,000 square meters, built as a monastery and later used as an orphanage and vocational school. The entire building develops around three cloisters of the 18th century and one cloister of the 15th century near the Church of Santa Maria della Visitazione. Thanks to its vastness, its architecture, its gardens, its silence, the Center is an oasis inside the town.

It is located in Sestiere Dorsoduro, on the wide Calle (Rio Terà Foscarini) connecting Canal Grande to the quayside Zattere. In a few minutes you can reach the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Gallerie dell’Accademia and Piazza S. Marco.
