Vodnjan (Croatian) or Dignano (Italian) is a town and municipality in Istria County, Croatia, located about 10 kilometres north of largest city in Istria, Pula. Inside the historic nucleus, the town preserved its characteristic Medieval look with atria and narrow streets, irregularly winding among houses, with cobble roads and façades made of cobble stone, old streets still impressively recognizable by their Gothic, Venetian Renaissance and Baroque style and many churches rich with memories and art.

The El Magazèin gallery, where the second conference day will take place, is located in a very old building and is dedicated to the promotion of diversity in culture and arts within this area. The walls are covered the old-fashioned way with a mixture of lime, marl, ashes, Istrian stone dust and red clay that gives it colour, but above all it makes a good sound insulation together with 25 niches, doors and windows.
