We enjoyed trying our hands at creating a mosaic. The teacher was so patient and clearly explained the process. She ensured that the pieces we made were “ours” and something to be proud of.

Cute and fun way to learn about traditional mosaic techniques. Our instructor Nadia was very sweet and encouraging. The atmosphere inside the studio was cozy and artistic! Will highly recommend it to all my friends who ask about interesting things to do in Rome 👌🏼

I have been enjoying the various mosaics around Rome. This experience was wonderful. Nadia was a great teacher. Very patient with us learning this new skill. It was very relaxing sitting down and creating a tile to enjoy at home. I would give it a 6 star rating out of 5 stars.

We took our relatively "crafty" 10 year old son. The lady who runs this was phenomenally kind and engaging. We started at 3pm and didn't finish until nearly 6.30pm and felt no rush to leave. Its harder than you think it will be but with practice you get the hang of it.
This was the highlight of our son's trip to Rome and we are all pleased with our take home mosaic (an issue with the weight allowance if you travel light!).
Locals obviously also learn there are we had someone with us who was clearly far more advanced than we were, it was interesting to see how skills can be developed in this craft. We were encouraged as beginners and this shouldn't put you off, I share more to explain that this is an established teaching environment although very relaxed.
I will recommend to anyone going to Rome, Adults too. The parents also enjoyed it!

The class was such fun. The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful. We picked a pattern from a group of about 20 different patterns and then picked the colors of marble that we wanted to use.

The workshop was a great experience, and a must for anyone who likes Art, especially Roman art.
Instructor Nadia is very sweet and very skilled. Her English is limited, but she tries her best and even used Google translate to communicate and pass knowledge better. She is very patient, and you will enjoy spending time with her!
The process included deciding your design from a selection, choosing your stones, cutting stones, glueing them down, and layering it into the concrete. Be prepared to use the forearms a lot!
Highly recommend and I would do it again whenever I visit Rome again!
Thank you for the wonderful time!

While there was a little confusion when we arrived and they were not expecting us, they pivoted quickly and we were getting started. The lady running the class was brilliant and very knowledgeable. We both ended up with mosaic tiles and had a wonderful afternoon hammering at marble. It is not a hobby I will pick up and it is a lot harder than it looks, but it is wonderful to create something so unique and Roman and with a lovely group of people.
