Exhibition Space in Venice

The Scuola Internazionale di Grafica offers exhibition space in Venice for artists, designers, and cultural events.

Our two venues— one in the Scuola’s facilities in Cannaregio and the other at Palazzo Dandolo on the Grand Canal— provide flexible settings for exhibitions, presentations, and private events of various durations and scales.

Why Exhibit at the Scuola?

The Scuola Internazionale di Grafica is not just an exhibition venue but a long-established center for the arts. Over the years, it has hosted exhibitions by renowned artists and significant cultural events, making it a recognized part of Venice’s artistic landscape.

Unlike standard rental spaces, the Scuola offers a setting deeply connected to artistic practice. Exhibitions and events held here become part of an ongoing dialogue, leaving a lasting presence within the art community rather than being confined to their scheduled dates.

SG Gallery + Square Space

Our Cannaregio studios, next to the printshop frequented by artists from all around the world, feature two exhibition spaces: SG Gallery and SG SquareSpace.

As with Palazzo Dandolo, the exhibitions held at the Scuola always attract a large audience. The Scuola is indeed a destination for many professionals and enthusiasts.

Palazzo Dandolo on the Grand Canal

 The Piano Nobile comprises two exhibitions halls facing the Grand Canal.

Its proximity to the San Tomà waterbus stop makes it an ideal place to stage exhibitions and cultural events with high attendance.

Palazzo Dandolo hosted four side events of the Biennale d’Arte di Venezia→ in 2013, 2015, 2017 e 2019.
