Over the past 35 years, the Venice Project Center (VPC) has had many impacts on the Venetian community. The goal of this project was to recognize the VPC’s 35 years of accomplishments and help disseminate its research to better serve the greater Venetian community. We created an online repository that includes project data, reports, applications, and more. We examined the partnerships the VPC has formed over 35 years, including the number of new and returning collaborators the VPC has worked with. We found that many world-renowned magazines have showcased the VPC’s contributions to Venice, such as National Geographic, Smithsonian, and more. We then examined where the VPC has been cited or mentioned in scholarly research. We also looked at instances where research the VPC has done for the city or a collaborating organization led to a change in operations. Finally, we created detailed recommendations and plans that future teams can use to create engaging media, update web resources, and host VPC events and exhibitions.
