Paint and Wine Night in a Hidden Venetian Atelier

About this tour

Spend two hours in a working Venetian studio painting whilst sipping Italian wine. You'll work alongside an artist who guides your brushwork, surrounded by candlelit corners and reclaimed furnishings that feel far from the tourist trail. Everyone leaves with a finished piece they've actually made, not a pre-drawn template. It's less about producing gallery-ready art and more about the conversation, the wine, and surprising yourself with what you can do.

Highlights

What to expect

You'll arrive at a proper working atelier—not a slick commercial space. The artist gives straightforward instruction suited to absolute beginners; no prior experience needed. You're given your canvas, paints, and brushes, then encouraged to follow loose direction whilst keeping your own vision. Wine flows freely. There's no rigid curriculum or silent concentration—expect chat, laughter, and people helping each other solve compositional problems. Two hours moves quickly but never feels rushed. By the end you've got an actual painting you made yourself, imperfect and honest.
