For over seventy years, celebrated artists, writers, historians, philosophers, poets and musicians from all over the world have left their mark on the Fondazione Giorgio Cini through their work or art in the name of beauty, thriving cultures and the pursuit of knowledge. Every year the Foundation offers the general public a rich programme of activities, bringing together historical collections and explorations of contemporary thought in events with a worldwide reach. Now you can be part of this noble tradition.
Being a Cini Ambassador means actively participating in an ongoing cultural and social renaissance. It also means enjoying advantages at special occasions, including private events, and having privileged access to explore the treasures on the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore.
You can become a Cini Ambassador by making a donation to acquire one of the various kinds of membership cards (see below for cards and benefits), or if you are presented by a cardholder.
