The events are dedicated to Veneto and its culture, history, artistic beauty and Venetian civilisation, but also to historical-social current events and, above all, to the varied editorial production of the various publishing houses in Veneto. During the organized events there will also be readings by
professional actors and musical interludes to offer the public the opportunity to enjoy the encounter between the written and recited word, music, as well as exhibitions and writing and illustration workshops.
