Confirmation of Availability
The workshop will be confirmed after checking availability with the mosaic artisan.
Booking is not automatic: you will receive a confirmation by email shortly.


Participation with Pets
Four-legged friends are welcome, provided we are informed at the time of booking.
The workshop is a craft space where marble, glass, and smalti are used: there may be small tiles, fragments, or dust on the floor, and the activity takes place in the presence of other participants, including children.
For this reason, we rely on the owner's sense of responsibility to assess whether their pet is comfortable in such an environment and able to stay calmly with them for the duration of the activity, safely.
If you wish, you may bring a blanket, mat, or pet bed so your companion can relax in a cozy and protected space.
A large enclosed garden is also available on-site, where your dog may stay during the activity if deemed more appropriate.
