Courses

Since the year 2003 we conduct courses in the workshop of the Artisan Village, which is perfectly fitted for the development of these activities.
To achieve the best results we adapt the level of your knowledge, concerns and objectives. The methodology is based on practice, where theoretical aspects, brief and specific, clarify the doubts that arise in the development of the work and exercises to practice the techniques necessary for the proper understanding of the techniques and use of the tools learned.
