Top Verona Art & Culture Classes

Discover the most playful and creative side of Verona! A unique experience between art, play and shared fun.

You’ll be welcomed into a space where leather is still cut, punched, and stitched using traditional tools and time-honored techniques. Guided by the local leatherworker, you’ll create your own mini wallet — a practical and personal item you can take home with you. But before your hands get to work, you’ll get a glimpse into the deep roots of this ancient craft. In the Middle Ages, leather was used for everyday objects like coin pouches, work aprons, sword sheaths, and even wallets. You’ll learn how leather was tanned and the unique properties, making it suitable for everything from soft clothing to rigid armor. With the support of your guide, you’ll select your leather, trace and cut the pattern, punch the stitching holes, and slowly bring your wallet to life using hand tools. You’ll also learn about stitching methods — including those once used for medieval pouches — and you’ll finish your piece by adding small personal touches. No previous experience is needed.

We paint a glimpse of the city under the guidance and with useful advice of the instructor. We work in a small group of up to 6 people, we share pleasant moments of plein air painting. As a result, each participant will take home a watercolor painted with their own hands which will be a souvenir of the beautiful holiday in Verona.

This experience is different from a typical photoshoot because it is designed as a relaxed part of your trip rather than a formal session. You begin with a short consultation to plan the visual story, choose the best outfits, and select beautiful locations that match the atmosphere you want. The shoot itself feels like an easy walk through scenic places whileyou are guided naturally so the photos look authentic rather than staged. The goal is to capture real emotions, your connection with the place, and moments that feel genuine. All images are created on a Hasselblad X2D medium-format camera, producing gallery-quality photographs with exceptional detail and color. Within 7 days you receive a curated selection of professionally edited photos in a private online gallery. The experience also includes a short social-media highlight video filmed during the session and instant printed photos in frames that you can keep immediately as a memory from the day.
