Open year round
The Art of Creating
This economuseum allows you to watch the transformation of glass, a burning and viscous material of 3500 years old. The glassworker artist Giuseppe Benedetto juggles with his blowpipe in front of you while transforming malleable glass into vases, lamps, fishes, centrepieces and multicoloured sculptures. Visit the art boutique for free all year long. Guided tours depending on availabilities and information boards (bilinguals).
