Art Workshops in Italy: 2012 Season

 

La Romita will be offering a wide variety of two-week programs in 2012, beginning on May 5th and running through October 12th. Watercolor, with its convenience and portability is prominent, but all media and all levels of expertise are welcome. This year, special programs in sketch-booking, calligraphy, and renaissance gardens will also be offered. All contain the usual magic…the hill towns, the food, the incomparable immersion into Italian culture.

Please explore the pages below to discover more about each of this year’s art retreats and workshops, their instructors, and what you can expect to learn from them when you enroll!

Rave Review:

[...] and I didn’t know they were going to take such great care of us. The people here at La Romita have been flexible and giving and nurturing, taking care of any need that might arise, especially where it concerns art and, in my case, painting. And food. Oh, gosh. There’s the food. It’s wonderful. — Chris Newlund
