Venice is a city built on craftsmanship, and its true charm lies in the workshops and small artisanal businesses tucked away in the city’s backstreets. With this edition of Homo Faber Event, visitors can experience the lagoon city in a different way with In Città, an immersive, city-wide addition to the main exhibition on San Giorgio Maggiore Island. Using the website and app, take a bespoke, self-guided tour based on your own personal interests. Experience daily life in a workshop, watch artisans demonstrate their skills, have a go at age-old crafts, take in an exhibition and buy custom-made gifts made in front of your eyes.
Book one of these themed journeys through Venice, which combine several experiences.
Pick and choose the craft experiences that most interest you.
