What To Expect
Welcome & Introduction (5-10 mins)
As you arrive at our art studio you’ll be welcomed by our host and seated at your painting station, already prepared with a canvas, brushes, and all materials you need.
Together with the rest of the group you will vote to choose the painting theme for the session.
Wine Tasting (10 mins)
Enjoy the first glass of wine: a refreshing organic blackberry wine or a local Tuscan rosé/ red /white - both selected to inspire your creativity.
Guided Painting Session (120 mins)
Our art instructor will guide you step by step, even if you’ve never painted before. You’ll learn basic painting techniques, how to mix colors, and how to recreate a beautiful Florentine landscape or iconic image — often featuring the Ponte Vecchio, the Duomo, or Tuscan scenery.
Creative Freedom & Interaction
You’ll have the chance to personalise your painting, chat with other participants, and enjoy your second glass of wine.
Wrap-Up & Photos (10 mins)
Before you leave, you’ll have time to take pictures with your finished painting, right by the window overlooking Ponte Vecchio. Your artwork is yours to keep — a one-of-a-kind souvenir from your trip to Florence.
