Twelve and a half Centuries in Twelve and a half Hectares
Virtual Cultural Event, on Zoom
by Jeremy Boudreau
Jeremy Boudreau returns to contribute a third lecture on one of Florence’s historic neighbourhoods: his own! Join us for a virtual tour of the via della Vigna Nuova and its immediate surroundings, including the historical monuments and urban spaces contained within a 200-metre radius from his doorstep; the extent of the outside world made available to him through short walks and supply runs during 8 weeks of lockdown.
The talk will last about 40 mins, and will be followed by a discussion using the power of video conferencing.
We request that you make a donation (however much is comfortable for you) if you wish to participate in the sessions. Your donations will help keep the Institute afloat at this difficult time; and we will give 50% of the money we receive to "Firenze per Firenze", a local funding programme that is addressing the social and economic crisis that the city of Florence is currently facing.
Thank you for your support.
