"Citizens and firms must take care, preserve and improve cultural and landscape heritages. On the other hand,
the work of patronage pleases the spirit of citizens and firms".
The task of the association
The Land of Leonardo is to manage, organize
and promote, in a direct or indirect way, initiatives and actions to preserve
artistic and landscape assets.
This task is possible thanks to a fund used for many different aspects of the cultural asset.
This fund, on the one hand, covers the preservation and the restoration of many artistic works,
and on the other hand, it is involved in the development of the environment. Therefore, its main aspect is to
improve
Vinci surroundings together with the other town councils of the
Circondario Empolese Valdelsa and
then
Tuscany and
Italy.
Private citizens, Italians and foreign people, public institutions, private undertakings, and international
organizations can provide financial support with gifts and donations given through
Fund Raising.
Another aspect of
The Land of Leonardo is to provide lectures on
historical art, landscapes and environment. All topics linked to the works of
art and supported tourism. The Association can achieve its aims of promotion
and development either with direct initiatives or with the cooperation and/or
participation of other cultural institutions and associations. They can be situated
in Italy, in the European Community or in the whole world, but they need to
be all linked to the figure of Leonardo da Vinci and to the will to preserve
and maintain the cultural and landscape asset in Italy.
