On Sunday June the 18th Dolomiti Contemporanee opens the gates of the Colonia (Eng.: summer camp building), the most astounding yet lesser known structure of the former Eni Village of Borca di Cadore, inside which the regenerative platform of Progettoborca, developed thanks to the support of Minoter and of the network of DC’s partners, has been operating ever since 2014.
Progettoborca is the contemporary stronghold of culture over the former Eni Village.
We will meet those interested in taking part in the guided visit at the offices of Dolomiti Contemporanee, in Via Mattei 5, Corte di Cadore Village, at 3 PM sharp.
Find more detailed directions to find the location here.
The visit will last about two hours, and will allow those taking part in it to discover the artworks realized inside the Colonia by the artists involved in the artist’s residency programme by Dolomiti Conteamporanee.
The Progettoborca Archive will also be presented to the public in this occasion.
That same day, the Our Lady of the Cadore Church will be open for visits from 10 AM to 6 PM, indipendently from the tour itself.

The cups were produced in the 60s by Richard Ginori, one of the numerous and important companies that contributed in the transformation of the Corte di Cadore experience into a one-of-a-kind, great and innovative active hub of production and modernization.
