Comment from Jessica
Venice may seem like a sleepy city steeped in history, but the art scene is alive, kicking and contemporary. This is showcased every other year during both the Venice Biennale, a big contemporary art festival that takes over the city in odd-numbered years, and on an annual basis at the Venice Film Festival. As part of the Venice Biennale, the Venice Film Festival usually takes place in late August to early September and draws famous actors and filmmakers from around the globe.
