An afternoon of work in a historical artistic silkscreen workshop. You will browse the historical archive consisting in almost half a century of contemporary art.
Then you’ll get familiar with this printing technique and experience it in the place where artists such as Vedova, Guttuso, Richter, Obey have printed their works.
But most of all, you will realize a 3-color silkscreen print to take home, representing a Venetian palace. It will come out in 10 copies, so that you can give it to your friends as a unique souvenir of your trip to Venice.
A couple of mandatory requirements: curiosity and will to play with colors!

ARTISAN FOR AN HOUR
Gianpaolo, screen printer
A tour inside the discovery of screen-silk printing, a technique that allows you to experiment with colors and make a reproducible work of art while maintaining its uniqueness. The hands-on workshop takes place in the historic silkscreen laboratory of Cannaregio, in a unique and authentic Venice where art and tradition come together and come to life in the ancient crafts of the artisan workshops. Immersed in an archive consisting of more than a thousand works of art printed from 1968 to present, you will learn the secrets of the silkscreen and you will experience the printing of a one-color graphic on a support you choose among cardboard, t-shirt or canvas bag, which you'll take home as a souvenir of a creative and unusual adventure.

ORIGAMI AND FOLDING PAPER
Anita, engraver
Paper is a strong and versatile material if manufactured the right way. It can be made into many objects by folding it: flowers, animals, stars, design objects like lamps and containers. With some small paper pieces you can fill a room with coloured flowers, birds and butterflies. If you are patient enough you can make beautiful decorations from simple paper sheets. Origami come from the Japanese tradition of folding paper to make magic out of it! Please note: the experience lasts 1 hour, you can choose your preferred time by agreeing with the artisan
