Key Points
Get Plastered (Artistically): Fresco Painting in Florence
Ever wondered how Renaissance masters created their stunning frescoes? Step into Florence’s historic Old Convent and find out for yourself in this hands-on fresco painting workshop. It’s three hours of artistry, history, and maybe a little artistic mess—all set in the peaceful ambiance of a convent that’s been inspiring creatives for over a century.
Master the Art of Buon Fresco
You’ll dive straight into the ancient craft of Buon Fresco, the technique that brought life to ceilings and walls for generations. From prepping the plaster (yes, you’ll actually mix it) to painting your very own masterpiece, you’ll learn every step of this time-honored process. And don’t worry—expert artisans will guide you through it all, so even if your last artistic endeavor involved finger paints, you’ll leave feeling like a Renaissance rockstar.
Art, History, and Snacks (Because Why Not?)
Between brushstrokes, take a breather and soak in the convent’s serene vibe. Head to the Literary Café in the cloister garden for a drink or a bite to eat—it’s the perfect way to recharge before returning to your magnum opus. Plus, the café’s charm alone is worth the visit (think cozy, artistic vibes with a side of delicious).
Fresco for Everyone
Whether you’re a seasoned artist or someone who’s just excited to play with plaster, this workshop is open to all skill levels. And the best part? You’ll walk away with your very own fresco—a handmade slice of Florence’s artistic soul to hang on your wall (or gift to someone who deserves it).
So, roll up your sleeves, channel your inner Michelangelo, and create something unforgettable. Fresco painting: it’s messy, it’s magical, and it’s 100% Florentine. Are you ready to paint history?
