From 20 April, free guided tours and educational activities for all ages are coming back to LE STANZE DEL VETRO, on the occasion of the exhibition 1912-1930 Murano Glass and the Venice Biennale.

Don’t miss Translucid wizardry, the exciting guided tours at fixed times for adults, scheduled for every Saturday and Sunday, at 11 am in English and 4 pm in Italian. The tours aim to retrace the beginnings of modern artistic glass work, exploring the key artists, techniques and subjects that have played a role in the history of the art of contemporary glassmaking in Venice.

Guided tours, including for groups (up to 20 people), can be booked on any other day except Wednesdays, when we are closed to the public.

From May onwards, at 4 pm on every last Saturday of the month (and on Saturday 4), there will be guided tours on the theme Glass portraits – Artist monographies, which will take you on a journey of discovery through the lives of some of the key figures in the history of Venetian artistic glassmaking from 1912 to 1930: Hans Stoltenberg Lerche, Vittorio Zecchin, Teodoro Wolf Ferrari and Umberto Bellotto.

Also starting in May, at 4 pm on every last Sunday of the month is Mani-fatture, a series of events, each one different, dedicated to families. Adults and kids will be able to test themselves with activities designed to bring together art, science and entertainment, experimenting with different artistic techniques and learning through scientific experiments, games and stories. For the month of May alone, there will be two such events: in addition to the last Sunday of the month, Mani-fatture will also be available on Sunday 5 May.

You can book now (and at least two days before the requested date) by calling us on +39 041 8627167, lines open from Monday to Saturday. Or send an email requesting further information to: lestanzedelvetro.didattica@coopculture.it
