The mission of Save Venice Boston is the restoration and preservation of the cul-tural heritage, especially the art and architecture, of the city of Venice. There isno other center with such a concentration of masterpieces nor one in which somany great works of art are under such serious threat. To do all that one can topreserve Venice’s treasures is both a pleasure and an obligation.
