From June 1st to September 28th 2024 the mosaic artists of Ravenna open their mosaic workshop to promote the art form that has been characterising the city for centuries.
After a short visit to the workshop and a brief introduction to the history and techniques of mosaic, with the help of a local artisan you will have the possibility to realise a small mosaic object to bring home as an indelible memory of your time in Ravenna: a unique opportunity to learn and create a small personal work of art.
