In 1974, Wake Forest purchased the building that formerly housed the American Consulate in Venice and named it Casa Artom in honor of Camillo Artom, a professor at the Baptist Medical Center until 1969.
Casa Artom is a two-story building facing the Grand Canal.
It is flanked by the Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, which houses the Peggy Guggenheim art collection, and the 15th century home Ca'Dario.
Each fall and spring semester, a group of Wake Forest students and a resident professor live and study together here.
