Mosaic Making in Parma
Overview
This hands-on workshop will immerse you in the ancient art of mosaic making, leaving you with your very own hand made souvenir.
Whether you’re a seasoned artist or a curious beginner, you will be able to make something beautiful during these few hours at Giuseppe's workshop. Whilst you are making your mosaics, you’ll learn about the history of the art form in the region, as well as Giuseppe's own story about his mosaics in Parma (which you will have already noticed along the streets).
