Art Tour : A journey in Vicopisano

On Saturday 16 May, Vicopisano will host a guided tour setting off at 3 pm from the Torre delle Quattro Porte and takes participants on a tour of the village’s shops and workshops.

Along the way, there will be encounters with an artist working across painting, sculpture and colour; a jewellery maker specialising in handmade pieces; a guardian of the ancient art of dry-stone walling; the San Giovanni alla Vena Ceramics Association, presenting an exhibition dedicated to artistic ceramics; and a professional photographer, who will explain the appeal of artisanal typography and traditional printing.

The tour concludes at 5.30 pm in Via Lante with a tasting of local produce.
