funding and sponsorship by local authorities. And 'what we read in Article 6 of the economic measure, which provides, in 2011, a 80% cut on the expense of regions, provinces and municipalities for public relations, exhibitions, conferences, compared to what is already spent for the same chapters
in 2009.
Overall, for the financing organization of exhibitions and conferences for the planting of the year 2009, the Veneto Region has spent just over € 1.8 million.
From next January, this figure will be cut to 20%, which declined by more than 1.4 million. For the twelve months of 2011 will be available just over 400 thousand euro to support the exhibitions and the organization of conferences and exhibitions, with a significant reduction in funding that will go to undermine the existence of small and large cultural events spread over the territory.
Among the events that have received funding from the Veneto Region in 2009 include the celebrations dedicated to Sebastiano Ricci (over 500 thousand euro), the initiatives related to Giorgione at Castelfranco (300 thousand), the exhibition "Canaletto. Venice and its splendor "(200 thousand) and the exhibition" Contemporary Classics "at Villa Pisani at Stra (100 thousand). Article 6 of the maneuver Tremonti, dedicated to" Reducing the cost of the administrative apparatus, it is expected also a ban on all carry sponsorship.
Among those who currently receive regional funding - but it is still under discussion in the Joint Committee State-Regions the exact definition of the term "sponsorship" - we are the orchestra of the Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza (€ 250 thousand), the Teatro Stabile di Verona (200 thousand) , the Arena di Verona and La Fenice in Venice
(€ 800 thousand each). "We do not know if this funding will be cut by 80% or if they are completely cleared, it is still an ongoing discussion within the State Technical Commission-Regional - they know by the Regional Budget -. And 'certainly
however, that the Veneto has a strong tradition in the field of culture and appreciation of local realities and is very difficult to predict the actions or entities that will suffer a cut in funding. "
Each local government subject to different realities and hundreds of thousands of euro to support major cultural events. For example, the Province of Padua in 2009 he helped organize the San Antonio Marathon with 65 thousand euro; same amount for the preparation of the exhibition dedicated to Telemaco Signorini, € 20 thousand in the celebrations Galileo International year of astronomy. All funds that could be cut by 80% or be canceled altogether. Turning to the Province of Verona, they face a substantial cut the festival "Festival In Province", for which the provincial government currently has a spending commitment of 160 thousand euro, and the Veneto Festival - co-financed by the region - on which invests € 75 thousand instead. "We are waiting to see what will the central government with the term 'sponsorship' - claim by the Province of Verona - Why the sponsorship is in fact an actual contract, that the public seldom used.
few years ago the Province of Verona has created a real chance of World Cup sponsorship in cycling, an event of great of enormous scope and vision: only then we opted for a contract of this type, because a funding standard, before an initiative of this size, would have been almost ridiculous. "
