STAGE
Since 2002 the Association started a fruitful collaboration with the Faculty of Arts of the University Ca’ Foscari of Venice, which was ratified with a convention authorizing the Association to involve students in its guided tours.
The convention is achieved through stages during which students are supervised by members of the Association throughout the training and cultural assistance in order to provide them with the specific skills necessary to accompany students, members and groups of citizens in guided tours of museums and other city institutions .
