    If you are in Venice you HAVE to do this experience. Massimiliano was a wonderful teacher and host. He is a phenomenal artist and we appreciated him sharing his craft with us. We had a fantastic time making a special keepsake from our time in Venice.

    This was a very cool activity. It sucked we arrived 10 minutes early like the activity required. The people before us were late so their class ran over. We had to try to find a place that was open to hide from the rain. Everyone back home was excited to see the pedant we made. It is nice keepsake. We wound up buying the dancer he made in the demo. It would have been nice of the demo piece had been included in the price of the class.

    Great experience, artist very passionate about his work and really shared this with us. Made a fantastic jelly fish glasswork in demonstration for us explaining the techniques and then was very patient allowing us to make our own pendants and practice glassworking techniques. A really brilliant experience and so much more unique than seeing the glasswork on Murano, would absolutely recommend and are really proud of our creations!
