SOCIETÀ DI AMICI
The generosity of the Bogliasco Foundation's most important group of supporters, the Società di Amici, is the cornerstone of our mission to support the work of artists and humanists through our fellowship program at the Bogliasco Study Center. In appreciation of your gift of $1,000 or more, the Foundation is able to offer membership privileges including invitations to events with Bogliasco Fellows, signed works by Fellows, olive oil produced from the private grove on the grounds of the Study Center, and, in some cases, personalized invitations to visit the Study Center and dine with the Fellows in residence.
By joining the Società di Amici, you will make an important contribution to the future vitality of the arts and letters, those disciplines that have, in large measure, defined human existence.
