The mask painting was lots of fun and our children really enjoyed it. They loved trying something different rather than museum trips and tours. It was interactive, educational and we walked away with some beautiful masks.

I messaged the host at the designated time via trip advisor that I would be late because google maps had the wrong location. Anyone who is in Venice, and specifically any tour advisor, is aware that google maps is unreliable and that delays happen. The provider was 1) not in the shop when I arrived and a neighboring restaurant had to find him 2) even though I had arrived 15 minutes late (including the time he wasn't in the shop) refused to hold the mask making even though the event would not end until 19:00. 3) Said that he doesn't check trip advisor and It's not his responsibility and that he will not host a shortened version of the event. There was over an hour remaining when we arrived and we still could have completed it with the few minutes delay he was advised of subtracted. However, he refused to do so, stating that our bring late voided the agreement and that we should not expect him to check trip advisor. Further, he was beligerant to me and threw me out of the shop for requesting a late start due to the issues we messaged him about resulting in our delay.

Artist provided good instruction on what to do, and also nice to get some history on the masks themselves. Fun activity.

It was wonderful! Giorgio, the shop owner, was the most warm and inviting host:) his talents in mask making go well beyond just helping my husband and I create beautiful Venetian masks—he truly is a an incredible artist! His creations are stunning! I can not recommend visiting his shop & painting Venetian mask enough! It takes the stress away and provides a beautifully meditative atmosphere! Next time you find yourself on San Marco-stop by, say hi to Giorgio, paint a mask, and unwind!

This was a lovely experience! The quaint little shop houses, the most fantastic masks you can imagine. The talent of the owner (he never shared his name) is spectacular. There was only one drawback. You are allowed to paint within the lines he draws and then he decorates it. Don't go thinking that you get to decorate your mask!

We all came away with our personalised masks. It was great to experience painting them with a mascherari. All his family are in the business. He drew some traditional patterns on the masks and we then got to choose 3 colours to paint the design. He does the embellishment. He assured us that they wouldn't get damaged in transit, but we still opted to take them in hand luggage. The experience takes place in his shop where you can buy masks that have been decorated by his family. The whole experience lasted just over an hour.
