May 28th, 2008

The 2008 season is under way and the first session, with Marian Dunn was a great success. By the end of the two-week period, one of our participants said that she’d found twenty new best friends. This is hardly unusual at La Romita. We visited medieval fairs in both Narni and Assisi…here are a couple of photos from Assisi…

and while we’re in Assisi, let’s make a little comparison between the gorgeous Umbrian wheel windows…first at the basilica of San Francesco…

Rave Review:

This is a place of renewal. It’s just absolutely wonderful. When I left home, I was really exhausted from all of the work I was doing day and night, and this has given me a new lease on life. I feel renewed, energized, ready to go back. And, of course, the experience of being around so many incredible artists, and friends of artists, because not everyone here is an artist, but the ones who have come along have certainly been art appreciators. — Earl Snellenberger
