ARTS CENTRE
"Sapere Aude: Dare to know!"
A place to learn, share and partake.
​
Our motto reflects our humanist, progressive outlook and beliefs in an equalitarian ideal where, in an educational setting, we all exchange knowledge, learn and teach from each other in a continuum.
​
We look forward to launching our series of residential courses at Palazzo Migliazzi, as a result of decades of collaboration with internationally acclaimed and accomplished artists.
​
We shall offer residential courses on:
​
MUSIC DANCE DRAMA FINE ARTS WELLNESS
​
Courses will offer a well-balanced schedule of intense practical activities, relaxing and convivial time, and half-day tours of the many heritage and cultural attractions in Piemonte and Liguria.
Most importantly, in addition to benefiting from the tutor's artistry and skills, participants will have the unique opportunity to share precious moments socialising with tutors, as they'll also be accommodated in the palace. A rare, wholesome experience that goes beyond the studio!
​
Accommodation will be mainly in our premises (double or twin rooms, single or double occupancy) with full board provided. For courses allowing a larger number of participants we shall liaise with (or recommend) local hotels and B&Bs.
