A Visit to Venice: Living with Water

Join UVA’s Lifetime Learning and the School of Architecture for a virtual visit to Venice, Italy. William Sherman, Mario di Valmarana Professor and Director of the Veneto Programs at the School of Architecture, will discuss the intersection of history, water, commerce, architecture, and design in this dynamic city. This lecture explores Venice’s remarkable history of adaptation to its unique geographic setting-living on water-from its origins to the present. Join us as we discuss Venice’s prospects for the future and what we can learn from its centuries-long relationship with water.
