What to expect

Over the course of two hours, I will tell you part of the history of Portuguese tiles, how they became so important to us, who influenced us, which colors are most commonly used in tiles in Porto and Portugal, and the most visited attractions. In this wonderful experience, you will also paint a tile that you can take home with you at the end. Using a technique I developed, it is possible to remove the tile one hour after the workshop ends.

Ao longo de 2h conto-vos uma parte da história do Azulejo Português, como se tornou tão importante para nós, quem nos influenciou, quais as cores mais usadas nos azulejos do Porto e Portugal, os locais de atração mais visitados. Nesta experiência maravilhosa também irão pintar um azulejo que no final o levarão convosco. Através de uma técnica desenvolvida por mim é possível levantar o azulejo 1 hora após o workshop terminar.

The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
