Where to study art in Florence
Painting and drawing schools in the Renaissance city.
For some, merely admiring the works is not sufficient: they feel compelled to grab their paintbrushes and have a go themselves. You’ll often see sketchbooks set up in front of well-known monuments, and you may even have whipped out your pencil yourself! For those seeking to set off on an artistic journey in the Renaissance city, here’s a round-up of a few of the many schools in the city that will guide you along the path to joining the ranks of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Botticelli (you never know)!

Florence Classical Arts Academy is an accredited and international Visual Arts Academy which combines the ancient teaching method of the Russian school, born 300 years ago at the Imperial Court, with the masters of the Renaissance. The Florence Classical Arts Academy was founded in 2009 by its Director Nadezhda Molugova.
Wherever you choose to pick up your paintbrush, your work will be imbued with the centuries of cultural heritage that can be found in every brick in the city.
