Participate in a hands-on workshop on the time-honoured art of glass making and grab the chance to craft your own sparkling treasure! Celebrate the Venetian art of glass-making under the guidance of a veteran master artisan and learn more about the rich history and secrets of this old-centuries art as you skilfully create your own little souvenir to take back home.
Craft a necklace out of shimmering, colourful beads, or make a delicate mosaic out of fine glass pieces in rainbow hues. Flaunt your masterpiece back home as a testament to your freshly-acquired glass-making skills. Languages available are English, Italian, Spanish and French.
About the art of glass making: This Venetian art dates back to the 7th century, and includes using crystalline glass, smalto, and aventurine, with threads of gold, millefiori, multicolored and lattimo, mild glass. Venetian artistes since generations have continued to churn out masterpieces like chandeliers, frames, jewel boxes, necklaces, and glasses for Champagne and wine. Watching a glass artisan at work is sure to be enthralling but creating a glass artefact by yourself is guaranteed to be an invaluable and riveting experience!
