    I found this school and a course in Venice via an online search. The admin team were extremely helpful as I could only attend the last three days of a five day course and they arranged that for me. The course – walking, outdoor, conducted in Italian – was extremely interesting and with my intermediate level of Italian I was able to follow, in large part thanks to the extreme clarity of tutor Silvia., whose knowledge was exemplary

    Good morning Federica, I took the art course with Domenico Salamino for 15 days, entitled ‘The images that inhabit Venice’. I loved it! CONGRATULATIONS! The accommodation was also very comfortable and the hostess was really friendly, welcoming and nice. Thank you for everything. I felt VERY GOOD.

    The art course I did the week of 7 September was fantastic both for its content and for Domenico, who gave it. The accommodation in the residence on the island of Giudecca was great and the best thing was the view of Venice from the residence. Thank you for your help and professionalism in the management of this trip and I will definitely come back again.

    I absolutely loved my stay in Italy. The school does a very serious job. Tey’re extremely organized and offer interesting free activities every afternoon – which is a great oportunity to make new friends! Both the staff the students made me feel integrated from the first day. The course itself was also very useful, I learned a lot about Venetian art and italian culture in general. Italy is the place to go if you love art and culture, and I wish I could have stayed longer. I will definetely go back one day. I have absolutely no complaints! The lady who hosted me was also very nice, and we got along really well.Thanks for everything!!

    I took an art course in Venice during the last week of September. The professor was Domenico Salamino. The course was about the painter Bellini. As always, Domenico was wonderful, not only for everything he taught us about Bellini, but also for everything we learned about the historical, social and urban context of 15th and 16th century Venice. My accommodation at Renzo’s was also very good. Best wishes!
