Making Sicilian ceramic souvenirs
Ceramic Giardini Naxos and Taormina
Ceramic Giardini Naxos and Taormina it is a complete experience that deals with the most known art since ancient times.
The word ceramic derives from the Greek Kéramos, that is clay or potter’s land.
Since ancient times it was modeled to make pots and other everyday objects. The clay was worked by hand, cooked in special ovens that reached high temperatures (up to 900° C) to become terracotta: resistant and waterproof. In Giardini Naxos there were many furnaces and the beautiful creations of the Greek period can be admired at the museum of the Archaeological Park.

About us
A beautiful experience! The teacher knows how to make you feel special and kindly explains how to achieve what you have in mind. I am happy to have tried. - April
A surprise from my boyfriend! We arrive in Giardini Naxos and we had one of the funniest experiences together! We had clay everywhere, so we took the opportunity to take a dip (the beach is in front of the shop). Perfect gift! - Elisa
We spent an afternoon playing and creating with the children. A different way to spend the day and to stimulate the imagination. -Sabrina
I love trying new things when I travel and this experience I could not miss. Go back as a child and do whatever you want ... even just mess around ... it's wonderful! And anyway I made a pot and it will be my souvenir of Sicily. -Alex
