# Ancient Mosaic Workshop in Rome

**Guidekin's take:** Not a tour but an afternoon in a studio learning Roman mosaic: cutting local marble, composing and finishing your own piece to take home in a sturdy box, with coffee and water on hand, rated 4.97 across 188 reviews. Materials, tools, frame, the box and the lesson are included at €89 per person, transport is not. Older children welcome with an adult.

## Overview

Your afternoon will be wonderfully spent discovering the ancient art of Roman mosaic-making. After a short introduction to traditional techniques, you’ll explore the principles of texture, composition, and marble tile cutting as you create your own mosaic to take home.

We look forward to welcoming you to the studio at 2:00 PM!
