I highly recommend visiting the Paduan exhibition "Pietro Bembo and the invention of the Renaissance", until the 19 Maggio 2013 a Monte di Pietà Palace (Piazza Duomo, 14, Padua). An exhibition that I personally found exceptional, for the quality and density of research and preparation and for the extraordinary nature of the works on display.
At the same time, a "low cost" exhibition. Rather, free cost, on some occasions: Sunday May 12 (Mother's Day: free admission for mothers), Sunday May 19 (exhibition closing: free admission), birthday (free admission for birthdays).
Alongside these gratuities, there are numerous agreements with other museums and exhibitions not only in Padua, but throughout the Veneto region; the reductions are valid for individual visitors and for groups, upon showing the ticket of the structure or event previously visited (so do not throw it away).
Below, thelist of conventions: “The Italian success in Paris in the years of Impressionism: the Maison Goupil” (Rovigo, Palazzo Roverella, Via Laurenti 8/10, 23 February-22 June 2013 - Tel. 0425 46 00 93 - frattagoupil.it); the Scrovegni Chapel, the Eremitani Civic Museums and Palazzo Zuckermann of Padua (Eremitani Complex, Padua, Scrovegni Chapel, Civic Museums and Zuckermann Palace, Piazza Eremitani 8, Tel. 049 820 4551 - padovanet .it); De Nittis exhibition (De Nittis, Padua, Palazzo Zabarella, Via degli Zabarella, 14, 19 January-26 May 2013 - Tel. 043 87 53 100 - palazzozabarella .it); Palladio Museum (Palladio Museum, Vicenza, Palazzo Barbarano, Contrà Porti, 11, Tel. 0444 32 30 14 - palladiomuseum.org); Giorgio Franchetti Gallery at the Ca 'd'Oro (Giorgio Franchetti Gallery at the Ca' d'Oro, Venice, Cannaregio, 3932 - Strada Nuova - Tel. 041 52 00 345).
