"A hidden gem in Friul with amazing artwork. We went for a walk around the classes and galleries, the area feels like a small uni campus surrounded by small workshops and interesting outdoor ,works in progress'."

"What an impressive 3 year program and school to become Mosaicisti (mosaic artists). Beautiful student and founder displays throughout the campus."
Karen Cohn
"It’s free to visit. The artworks are very good and unique. The only thing missing is some descriptions and translations. It would’ve been great if we could have a description and bit of history behind the artworks in English.
The corridor is very beautiful. There’s something more artworks are outside also.
As bonus there’s a ice cream shop just outside. It’s one of the best in the town and loved by the locals."
