What to expect

Join an authentic mosaic workshop where you'll be assisted step by step in the process of crafting a mosaic according to the ancient Roman technique. Create small-scale reproductions of famous mosaic artworks that you can find in Ravenna's basilicas and monuments.

You'll be welcomed by Lea, a certified expert mosaicist, who will give you all the tools you need to bring a mosaic to life and guide you through the creative process. You can choose from some Roman mosaic models and use different types of marbles in various colours. At the end of the class, you will take home with you your mosaic as a souvenir.

While parents make their own mosaic, children aged 5 to 12 will have a variety of proposals to make mosaics with coloured glass paste tiles. They will be able to choose from different designs: cartoons, fantasy animals, or even mosaics from the Roman or Byzantine tradition.

Mosaics are the hallmark of Ravenna, they are deeply rooted in its history and tradition...so what better place than here to learn this ancient art?
