Practical information

The Bottega del Tinoretto's hours are 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Saturday. Students should register at least two weeks before the beginning of a course.  If students or visiting artists don't have accommodations, the Bottega can arrange for rooms at a B&B in the neighborhood.
