Overview

Set within an authentic creative environment, this retreat offers a hands-on introduction to contemporary eco-art through the use of recycled and reclaimed materials. Guided by experienced artisans, you’ll explore how art can become a tool for reflection, sustainability, and emotional storytelling — blending 20th-century artistic influences with Sicilian cultural heritage.

All workshops take place at the Creative Italy School at Feudo San Pietro, an ancient hamlet dating back to the 1400s. Over five days, you’ll experiment with mixed artistic languages, develop personal projects, and rediscover the value of making with intention.

Immersive learning experience

Creative Italy retreats are designed as immersive creative journeys.

Over five days, you’ll participate in eco-art workshops held either in the morning or afternoon at Feudo San Pietro. Through mixed artistic languages and recycled materials, you’ll explore how art connects to everyday life, sustainability, and emotional expression.

Beyond the studio, you’ll have time to experience Sicilian rhythms, nature, and local culture — allowing creativity to flow naturally from place and experience.
