In 2016 the Venetian Ghetto will celebrate its 500th anniversary. For centuries, the Ghetto has been not only a place of segregation but also a meeting place of many cultures. In the Venice Ghetto Jewish culture was nurtured and thrived and from there it spread to many other parts of the world.
To recognize and commemorate the shaping power of the Ghetto for Jewish life and its historical connections to other cultures, The Venice Center for International Jewish Studies is dedicated to promoting and facilitating advanced academic study and research, ongoing student and adult learning in Jewish studies, and the enhancement of Jewish life and culture in the Ghetto today.
