What a great experience

It's a small shop which feels very homely. The lady talks through what to do and shows you pictures of other mask to copy or give you ideas for your mask. We was a family of 3 and we had a great time. Would highly recommend it as its a lovely experience to do with your family or as a couple.

A memorable, relaxing, and fun activity in Venice

Wonderful experience. The sisters that own the shop are kind and sweet. Beautiful masks. Really fun and memorable experience. A highlight of our trip to Venice. We all painted different masks and also purchased a beautiful mask at the shop for a very reasonable price, considering the skill and artistry. Highly recommend.

Enjoyable hour for kids in Venice

It was a pleasant experience for my two children (13 and 10). The masks were quality masks that made it home with us to the United States as keepsakes.

I highly recommend this experience. The shop was lovely and our guide was kind and patient with our small children (5, 7, and 9). It was a great activity for kids, and helped to break up a long day of walking around.

Amazingly fun

Came into town with two families six adults and three children. Thought the kittens would like this. And learned something. We all had a great time. Our artistic talents all came out. The staff was very helpful. Heading some finishing touches on our masks. I was amazed how good all of them looked. Definitely a great afternoon spent. Especially for families.

Priceless Venetian Mask Making Course with Family

We had such a wonderful experience with Michela during our Venetian papier-mâché mask-making class! She was incredibly patient with our children, making the entire process fun, engaging, and stress-free for our family. Michela was not only friendly and welcoming, but also very attentive—she guided us step by step and helped each of us create exactly the masks we envisioned. Her encouragement and expertise really made a difference. She even went above and beyond by taking photos for us during the experience, which we really appreciated, and she recommended a fantastic restaurant afterward that we loved. This was such a memorable and unique experience, and Michela made it truly special. Highly recommend!

It was absolutely amazing! There are mask patterns available, so if you don’t have an idea of what to make, you can find inspiration. There are lots of things you can do, and several different styles of masks. We had a wonderful time!!
