CONTEXT

With the largest number of masterpieces and conservators of artistic heritage in the world, Florence offers the best opportunities to acquire and perfect the skills and knowledge for the protection of cultural heritage.

For 35 years, our Institute has opened its laboratories in July, August and September to students from all over the world who are interested in joining practical courses run by the same teachers as the three-year academic courses. And now, from 2024 onwards we are offering short introductory courses throughout the year.

The ceramics restoration course offers students the opportunity to work on ceramic artefacts both within the Institute's laboratories and, when available, at external work sites.
