Trying your hand at engraving on glass

From seeing to doing, in this workshop with Matteo Seguso, master glass engraver in Murano, participants are invited to sit at the fixed lathe and try to engrave a motif onto glass. The workshop begins with a demonstration by Matteo, during which he also recounts some secrets of glass engraving. Participants can then try their hand at engraving a drawing onto a small object. They can take their creation home as a souvenir. This is a unique experience, which leads the visitor from spectator to maker, engaging in this ancient art passed down for centuries. Children can attend for free.
