Discover the immense environmental and cultural heritage of our territory with an experience en plein air to Cava de' Tirreni. Take advantage of this day to engage in art and creativity outdoors, surrounded and inspired by the beauty of the nearby Lattari Mountains.
The day begins at 9:45 a.m. near the imposing Abbey of the Holy Trinity: here there will be the observation point from which to make a sketch of the perspective view on paper with grease pencils and the help of an art master. After this moment of relaxation and concentration, lasting about an hour and a half, you will begin the walk to reach the pretty town center, walking for about fifty minutes; of course you can refresh yourself with an aperitif, a snack or enjoy the packed breakfast you brought with you before visiting the town independently.
At around 2:30 p.m. you will meet again with the teacher to begin the lecture of decoration on majolica.
You will then transfer the drawing on a tile 20×20 cm, glazed with still-raw majolica glaze, decorating it with metal oxide colors. At this point, all that remains is to frame and fire the tiles before saying goodbye.
The tiles can safely be shipped once baked at the participants' expense (about 8 euros for Italy).
