Art Trip to Venice and Lido di Jesolo

Halsbury Sticker

An art school trip to Venice offers your students the opportunity to learn about the history of art in the Floating City!

Venice, built on top of a lagoon, is truly unique and so breathtakingly beautiful that it’s no wonder that artists have been drawn here for centuries. In fact, Venice has long been one of the most important centres for art in Europe, making this the perfect choice for a school art trip to Italy.

Like many of our school art groups who visit Venice, you may choose to stay in the nearby seaside resort of Lido di Jesolo, which offers quick access to the city and a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere in which to spend your evenings. And you could also choose to team up with your school's Italian department to make this a cross-curricular school trip.
