On October 25th 2014 the 32nd edition of Le immagini della fantasia was inaugurated in Sàrmede (Treviso). The exhibition has always offered a public of enthusiasts and professionals, both young and old, a broad glimpse of the world of children’s illustration, displaying outstanding examples of artistic expression in terms of aesthetic innovation and narrative wealth. Each year La Casa della Fantasia plays host to hundreds of illustrators, authors, publishers and books representing the many aspects of this extraordinary international panorama and confirming the value of the illustrated book as a tool for knowledge and a means of conveying beauty. Extensive research and intense discussion with the sector also give rise to additional display sections, used by the numerous educational programmes to find out How a book is created, meet a Guest of honour and discover Tales from all over the World; so that readers young and old can set off from Sàrmede on other adventures, from book to book. The promotion of passion for illustration and reading, addressing an ever-wider public, is one of the exhibition’s objectives as it journeys tirelessly on. Setting off from the historic first leg of the exhibition in Sàrmede, Le immagini della fantasia has been presented in Venice, Madrid, Aix-en-Provence, Genoa, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, Ljubljana, Bratislava, Lisbon, Salzburg, Seville, Vienna, Istanbul, Stuttgart, Naples, Monza, Siena, Rome, Verona, Florence, Munich, Milan, Vicenza, Honfleur, Sarasota (USA) and Edinburgh.

May 12th: the Sensa Festival (Venice)

The Sensa Festival commemorates a historical event that took place on Ascension Day, May 9th 1000. On that day,  Doge Pietro Orseolo II left Venice at the head of a great fleet, to defend the inhabitants of Zara and Dalmatia against the incursions of Croatians and Narentines. Before leaving, the Doge boarded the cerimonial galley, the Bucintoro, and set out to sea along San Nicolò di Lido Canal, while  the Bishop of Venice gave his blessing to the Adriatic. Having reached the mouth of the harbour, the Doge then threw a golden ring into the sea to symbolically marry Venice to the sea and demonstrate  the Serenissima's domination of the gulf. Every year since then, the Doge (now the Mayor of Venice) has repeated this solemn ritual. The re-enactment of this cerimony is also accompained by numerous other attractions, including the Sensa market in the cloisters of the San Nicolò church on the Lido, and the Voga alla Veneta rowing races - the water parade staged by Associazioni Remiere (Venice Rowing Club)
