Description

Take a break from sightseeing without missing out on Rome. In the shade of Oppian Hill Park, with the Colosseum in view, you can escape the crowds, sit down and enjoy a slower moment during your busy Rome itinerary. Using a simple sketching method, you’ll observe the Colosseum more closely and create a personal souvenir to take home. No drawing experience is needed, and all materials are provided. This is not a traditional tour or drawing class—it’s a relaxing, small-group experience designed to help you slow down and see the Colosseum differently.

A truly wonderful experience, REALLY recommended

Was a great way to avoid the crowds at the Colosseum and find a bit of inner peace at the same time. Laura was fantastic and gave us great tips to follow along with lots of historic facts as we were drawing. I’ve not picked up an art pencil in about 30 years so it made it doubly special. We were sat in shade but the midday sun moved round very quickly. We needed that SF50+ and to refill our large water bottles. Laura made sure to take us to the nearby nasoni (lit tr: big noses, free water fountains) before we headed off. Thanks for a wonderful experience and the biscuits 🙏

A fun experience

A fun experience. My bad for not telling the instructor my husband already knew how to draw so it could have been more advanced. Instructor was very knowledgeable and helped him see things a bit differently.

interesting experience but a little uncomfortable

The experience was interesting but I would have expected a slightly more comfortable accommodation. The cushion I was sitting on wasn't soft enough

Visit the Colosseum through body and mind

A pleasant and fun experience that I had together with my partner. After hours on our feet visiting museums and monuments, we treated ourselves to an original and relaxing experience. It was a different way of visiting a monument, not by listening or reading explanations but through observation and creativity. As Laura explained to us, the Colosseum is experienced personally because its image passes through our mind and body, that is, through our hands. To try!
