Florence is an art historian’s dream. The Galleria dell'Accademia bursts with works by Michelangelo, who is entombed within the frescoed walls of the Basilica di Santa Croce. Budding photographers can snap pics of the Ponte Vecchio bridge, and serious shoppers can spend a blissful afternoon wandering the shops of Piazza Santo Spirito. Tuscan cuisine pays homage to the region’s bounty. Swipe a hunk of crusty bread across a pool of local olive oil and you’ll be instantly transported to your happiest place.

The Florence Art Studio renews the tradition of working in a private working studio (bottega d'arte). We offer academic training customized to meet each student's goals and circumstances. This intensive training provides a disciplined study of the fundamentals of drawing and painting from life.The Florence Art Studio is an official affiliate of The British Institute of Florence.
What a great experience to spend a month at the FAS. Gary and his team were so giving with their knowledge and expertise. The tuition was intense and at times, it was a bit like drawing bootcamp but I wouldn't change that at all. I would not have thought that it was possible to improve my drawing and 'seeing' skills in such a short time. Such a beautiful, well organised and centrally located studio, I challenge anyone not to improve their artistic skill set. Will definately be back.

I receive from 1 to 10 persons and I offer two types of courses, one is The Classic that includes going to the market, stopping for an espresso along the way and choosing the ingredients for the meal you decided to learn and make. Example: tasting of different types of cheeses and cured meats and bruschetta’s to follow home made ravioli with ricotta cheese and spinach or Suisse chard and a second course to choose from Chicken Cacciatore of Fillet in Bread Crust and more ... to finish off sweety you will learn to make Tiramisù or other dessert upon request. This will be accompained by white, red and dessert wine. A second menu option is appetizers with different types of cheeses, pasta and dessert.

Courses of Italian language and culture in the centre of Florence from beginners to advanced. The Istituto Il David is an Italian language school for foreign students officially authorized by the Italian Ministry of Education . It is open all year round and it is located in one of the most prestigious areas of the center of Florence, next to the most important monuments.
I had a very satisfying two weeks in July 2019 at the Il David Institute. It is more than just a language school, it is a welcome in Florence, an integration into the cultural and social life of the city that is offered to us. Students of all ages and origins meet there, in an enchanting setting, cared for by a highly experienced organization. The courses are given in small groups, by teachers who are very attentive to the needs of everyone, but who are also very knowledgeable about the language and its didactics. It is their competence, as well as the good atmosphere in the courses and at the Institute, that has enabled me to make great progress in the acquisition of the Italian language. I highly recommend the Il David Institute. And thank you to all of you who hold this very special place.
