**Name:** Silvia

**Age:** 27

**Where do you live?** Castelfranco

**Student/working? Where? With what?** Student in English and Spanish Language and Literature with specialization in History of Art at the University of Padova

**What do you do at the Buenaventura?** Bar, TEH organization, …

**When did you first get in contact with the Buenaventura and how?** 3-4 years ago. I knew many people involved in this project and I always thought a place like this was necessary in this area (but not also here…).
At the beginning I used to come here only to drink something at the bar or to see some concerts, then, almost 1 year ago, I started to be more “active”. I started by working at the bar.

**A few lines about your relationship to Buenaventura, what do you like/dislike?** Almost 10 years ago I was a member of an association called “Giovani per Itaca” whose aim was to create a new space for young people in Castelfranco different from usual spaces such as bars or discoteques. We imagined a free space where people could meet, discuss and express their ideas (art, music and whatever…); a place for conferences, concerts and expositions where it was not necessary to be “famous” to present paintings, photographs or books. We failed, but I found that place here at Buenaventura.
