The excellent hotel we stay in lies within the walls of the old
city. It is comfortable, air conditioned, and well-appointed with a full and very
helpful staff. All our rooms have a private bath and a view of the town and the
Umbrian plain. The dining room, the terraces, the studios and the gardens all face
the views. Our participants say we need to emphasize the superb cuisine. This is
the reason we started a culinary arts program, run by the hotel chef Valerio, who
apprenticed to a master chef at age eight. The dining room staff is very friendly
and efficient. Each dinner is prepared especially for us. |

Because Art Workshop International has been in Assisi since 1983 we have become part
of the history and culture of the town. Each summer we form a cohesive community, form
lasting friendships, and some lives are changed by the experience. Our participants also tell us that meeting together
at the end of the day is a special part of the program. It’s a time to kick back,
relax, and have fun. |

One of the advantages of the Art Workshop visual arts program is the large air-conditioned
studio that the hotel provides for our exclusive use. It has floor-to-ceiling windows,
and artists are able to work at any time. There are individual easels and tables
for each of our artists to use during the workshop session. Art Workshop International
also maintains a library of art books to use as a reference. |
