Palazzo Bondoni Pastorio Foundation

People, ideas, sinergy

Established in 2008, thanks to the passion and generosity of
Maria Simonetta Bondoni Pastorio (1954-2012), last descendant of the family,
The Palazzo Bondoni Pastorio Foundation (FPBP) has rapidly established itself as a point of reference for cultural activities of absolute importance, 
both locally and nationally and internationally.
