Carrara Sculpting Class in Cinque Terre
Unleash your creativity and step into the world of Renaissance masters with a marble sculpting workshop designed for families and curious travelers. Inspired by Michelangelo and centuries of Italian artisanship, this hands-on experience allows you to create your own marble masterpiece guided by a skilled artisan.
Your visit begins with a tour of a traditional sculpture studio where you’ll learn about marble’s importance in Italian history and see how professional tools and techniques have evolved over time. As your host shares stories of classical art, enjoy a light tasting of local focaccia bread, pesto, and refreshments to set the mood.
Equipped with your own marble tile, protective gear, hammer, and chisel, you’ll start sketching your design—perhaps a flower, an animal, or an abstract shape inspired by Roman mosaics or Gothic cathedrals. Learn how to carefully chip away at the stone, gradually bringing your design to life. After shaping, you’ll polish your piece using emery paper and compressed air tools for a smooth, finished look.
At the end of the session, you’ll sign your sculpture and take it home as a personalized souvenir of your time in Italy. This experience blends art, history, and cultural appreciation in a meaningful and creative way—ideal for families, couples, or solo travelers seeking a unique and enriching activity.
