The Venice Ghetto was founded in 1516 as a place of segregation. Against all odds, it became a cosmopolitan crossroads of different Jewish communities and an influential site of cultural exchange between Jews and non-Jews. This is the vision that inspires Beit Venezia (from the Hebrew bait – home), which aims to promote Jewish thought and culture and serve as a bridge between people of all cultures and religions.
