One day of Art in Florence

For artists visiting Florence, transform your day trip into an unforgettable journey back in time. Our in-depth, one-day course offers a unique opportunity to draw and paint amidst the Renaissance atmosphere, guided every step of the way by our passionate and experienced art teachers. Discover the techniques and inspiration of the masters in the very city where they thrived.

During this course students will have the opportunity to choose and practice various drawing and painting techniques, such as graphite, charcoal, pastel, water-color, acrylic.

En plein air sessions can take place along the Arno river, in the ancient squares and in the “secret” gardens of Florence, away (but not far) from the madding touristic crowd. We can advice you on where to paint and draw before the lesson starts but you can also decide your destination on the day of your lesson.

This course welcomes artists of all levels, from complete beginners to seasoned professionals. Join us individually or with your own pre-arranged small group.

Please note:

• Our en plein air group classes are only available from March 1st to October 31st.
• Our en plein air classes involve walking and climbing stairs to reach outdoor locations for drawing and painting stunning, iconic views. If you have mobility limitations, this class may not be suitable. We recommend contacting us to discuss alternative options. Refunds will be considered on a case-by-case basis for documented mobility issues that prevent participation.
