Itinerary
Day 1
Venetian mask-making workshop — meet at Fondamenta S. Biagio, 796
Meet at the workshop on Fondamenta S. Biagio, check in, and begin a guided 90-minute mask-making and painting session. The workshop includes step-by-step guidance from craftsmen, paint, brushes, a mask base and an apron. The session is not wheelchair or stroller accessible. Allow a few minutes on arrival to settle in and choose your mask style and colours.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 10 minutes early to check in at Fondamenta S. Biagio, 796 so you can choose your mask base and colours without losing workshop time.
- Wear or bring a layer you don't mind getting a little paint on; aprons are supplied but paint can take time to dry—avoid packing the finished mask immediately.
- This venue is not wheelchair or stroller accessible. If mobility is a concern, plan for a companion to assist with short transfers to/from the workshop.
