October 23 – 25, 2026

A three-day exploration of art, architecture, history, and
preservation—bringing together the shared legacies of Venice
and Charleston as storied cities shaped by water, commerce,
and cultural exchange. Like Venice, Charleston is defined by
its relationship to the sea: a former global port, now a cultural
center, and a place where historic art and architecture and
layered histories necessitate thoughtful stewardship. Save
Venice is fortunate to have Charlestonian board members,
patrons, and insiders who are eager to welcome you for a
festive weekend steeped in learning and friendship.
