Typography and Printing in Italy : Reviews (Cornuda)

My favorite part of the trip was taking the cooking class and then getting to have a great dinner and eat the food we had helped make.

My favorite part of the program was attending a cooking class to watch and participate in making delicious homemade gnocchi and tiramisu.

I loved getting to experience the letterpress museum in Cornuda and using their equipment to make our own books.

The most rewarding part of the trip was getting to work on the printing presses in Cornuda.

The main goal of mine was to gather inspiration from the art we saw in museums, churches and the streets of Italy to refresh, renew and revitalize my creativity and design sense. I also wanted to become closer to my classmates and professors and create a personal, meaningful connection to the design school at KU. All of the visits to art museums and churches were incredibly valuable. They allowed me to fulfill a personal goal of seeing so much of the artwork I love in person.

I've always wanted to see Italy, and with this program I feel like I got to do it all. We got to see so many different things and places in such a short time and I feel lucky that I got to experience it all.

I felt that the most rewarding part of the trip was interacting with the items we saw in art history books. Being there in person was a totally different experience than just a regular class.
