Back #Volotea4Veneto: four Veneto projects compete for cultural funding

#Volotea4Veneto returns: second edition

The second edition of #Volotea4Veneto has begun. Promoted by Volotea in partnership with Gruppo SAVE and the Veneto Region, the initiative aims to enhance the region's artistic, cultural and natural heritage. The fund totals nearly €40,000 and the winning project will be chosen by citizens through an online vote.

Voting period: from 8 May to 10 June 2026. Voters will be entered into a draw to win a Volotea voucher worth €1,000.

Projects competing

• Civic Museum of Bassano del Grappa (VI) – refurbishment of the cloister, a historic venue for cultural events and community activities.
• Lessinia Regional Natural Park (VR-VI) – restoration of the Bolca Fossil Museum collection and enhancement of recent excavation finds, with an emphasis on access and educational outreach.
• Querini Stampalia Foundation, Venice – care and restoration of the garden designed by Carlo Scarpa, an important example of 20th-century architecture.
• Naturalistic Archaeological Museum, Vicenza – restoration of artefacts and 3D reconstruction to tell the story of the Roman theatre of Berga and ancient Vicetia.

The initiative seeks to turn sponsorship into a participatory process that connects institutions, territories and local communities. Gruppo SAVE and the Veneto Region emphasize the value of investing in the preservation and enjoyment of cultural assets to boost territorial attractiveness.
