    I had such a wonderful time at this mask workshop! It was cozy and intimate. I was the only one there, and I loved the one-on-one attention. What a fun hour in Venice. You get an hour to decorate a mask, with guidance and create the mask of your fantasies. I loved all the different masks that were on display, so much talent! Thank you for the great afternoon!

    Michaela is the best! Did this with my husband and I expected it to be the two of us and a gaggle of little kids, but it wasn't like that all. It was just the two of us sitting in her shop painting masks Michaela had made herself! To be honest, I don't have an artistic bone in my body so I didn't expect this to be my cup of tea, but as soon as I got started under the careful tutelage of Michaela, I went with it and had a blast! Plus, unlike so many other adventures, I was able to take the fruits of my labor home with me to remind me every time I look at it of this amazing experience. Must do!!!
