You can set a path to Python virtual environment using the "home"
parameter of application object.

    "myapp": {
        "type": "python",
        "module": "wsgi",
        "user": "nginx",
        "group": "nginx",
        "path": "/var/www/myapp",
        "home": "/path/to/your/venv/directory"
    }


Please also note that your application callable need to be named
"application" (not "app").  That can be easily achievable by:

  application = app

in your wsgi.py
