- visit Monte Carlo and gamble at the casino
- discover Renoir's house and his enchanting park in Cagnes sur Mer.
- visit the Picasso museum in Antibes and his house in the old mougins (traditional village).
- visit the Matisse and Chagall museum in Nice.

All these interesting places are not more than one hour from your studio

Most participants of these workshops are from Europe (Swizerland, Italy and
France).
You will have a wonderful opportunity to have interact with sculptors from different cultures, eat, laugh and sculpt together.

INSTRUCTION
FOR BEGINNERS AND ADVANCED

The content of each session will depend on the needs and interests
of the participants.
In each art worshop, sculptors will choose their favorite materials:
it can be clay, soft wood, or hard stone.
The diversity of the materials during the same workshops is very educational for the other participants. You will have the opportunity to choose stone coming from Europe (all colors...) and clay from the south of France (such as the famous clay from Vallauris).
If you choose carving stone, we will propose that you work only by hand, in the most traditional way. It is important that you explore your own area of interest in sculpture.
Our workshops are designed for both, beginners and advanced sculptors

Workshops are being held in English, Italian or French since participants with, different languages will be present. It really is an International workshop!
