ITALY: Our Routine in Clay

Sun, Jul 19th, 2015 A day in the life...of a ceramic workshop in Italy. The clay studio opens at 8 am, but class does not officially begin til 9:00.

A coffee break at 10:30, then a 3- course lunch at 12:30. We're back in the ceramic studio by 2:30, work til 4:30 then stop for another coffee break, with cookies and conversation.

Some people walk, others continue to work while others mingle. Studio is open til 8pm, so you can end the day at 5-6 or stay til 8.

Evenings at the ceramic tile making workshop in Italy, we have excursions or a night free. The medieval festival is in Certaldo, so a group of us enjoyed it. It's a festival, Italy style...musical performance, fire shows, hand made crafts, costumes, minstrels, art exhibits and more, all in the ancient, twisty corridors of #CertaldoAlto circa 1200.
