Edu Day is back, the event that links the schools and cultural institutions of the Veneto region: an informative day that aims to put the cultural realities of the area in direct contact with schools. Museums represent a cultural meeting place; a treasure trove containing the past and the future, tradition and innovation, and a means of promoting multidisciplinary learning.

The initiative, in its seventh edition, was conceived by ​​a network of over 30 cultural institutions operating in the Veneto with the aim of providing a service to the world of education.

The 2023 edition of Edu Day will be held on September, 4 from 10am to 5pm in Mestre, in the M9 Cloister and the Candiani Cultural Centre. It offers a day dedicated to connecting the museums and cultural institutions of the region with teachers working in kindergartens, elementary schools, middle schools and high schools, who on this occasion will be given access to an overview of the educational and didactic programs offered by museums, exhibition centers, libraries, theaters, and other foundations in the region.
