Museo dell'Ara Pacis,

On the occasion of the Centenary of the Foreign Press Association in Italy, the Ara Pacis Museum is hosting an exhibition of photographs and documents to celebrate the work of foreign correspondents.

The history of the Foreign Press Association in Italy began in February 1912 in the popular Caffè Faraglia on Piazza Venezia. In the coffee house - one of the most fashionable haunts in Rome - met 14 journalists from 6 different foreign countries to decide on the foundation of the new association.
