The Florence Art Studio:
Study art in the beautiful and historic city of Florence! Located right in the heart of the city, The Florence Art Studio provides intensive painting & drawing programs to students from around the world.

Location and Facilities:

An official affiliate of The British Institute of Florence, The Florence Art Studio is conveniently situated on Via Ghibellina, only a few steps from the principal historic and artistic places of interest: the Duomo, Bargello, Badia, Piazza Signoria, Palazzo Vecchio, Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio, the Basilica of Santa Croce, and the house of Michelangelo.

Elegant environment in the centre of Florence: Study in a historic registered 18th century palazzo in the heart of the birthplace of the Renaissance!

Our art school incorporates three studios, each of which is an ideal working environment with high ceilings and illuminated by large north-facing windows.

One studio space is dedicated to the live model and the other two are for studio practice. There is a dedicated service/work area, a small library and gallery, and a kitchen/service area.

The studios are also equipped with special computer controlled LED fixtures. The Florence Art Studio frescos, with a history dating back hundreds of years, will not be affected by this lighting.

The Studio has been renovated with in-floor radiant heating, providing an optimal level of comfort and air quality.

Warm, professional, specialist instruction.
