I had a very positive 3 month course experience at Riaci. I have learnt great new things about leather crafting under instructor Ms. Juliana. The school has very limited seats and the teachers are very approachable. Staff was nice as well.

I have always been interested in the shoe making process and after studying a BA on Industrial Design in Rome, I decided to move to Florence. I knew that Accademia Riaci would be a great place to learn the worldwide appreciated handcraft art.

History
Accademia Riaci is an Academy of Art and Design in the heart of Florence, Italy - Europe's eternal capital of the Renaissance - founded in 1983 by our Honorary President and Italy's leading jewelry artisan & sculptor, Maestro Raymond Riachi with a strong vision to create a school that not only taught his techniques, but enlightened young artists with the lively spirit and atmosphere of the Renaissance, in order to fulfill his life long mission as a Maestro. This was how Accademia Riaci was founded: a treasure box of traditional art and its irreplaceable techniques.Starting as a small art studio, today the same passionate mission has lit up a spectacular team of teachers representing the best Italian artists in Florence, retaining the founder and Honorary President's vision of tradition and spirit, expressed in the quote.
Advantages of studying here
1. The Ultimate goal of education at Accademia Riaci focuses not only on the teaching of traditional techniques and styles, but aims to guide every student to develop their own artistic sensitivity.
2.
The academy's faculty are top runner artists of each field, committed to inspiring next generation artists with unique tradition and artistic knowledge.
3. Contrary to the recent trends of mass production, the academy believes in high quality rather than quantity. Students will be nurtured to develop their imagination, and fantasies - the most valued elements of an artist. Professors encourage each student to inspire and develop each student's originality.
4. SMALL CLASS. The number of students per professor is limited to approximately 8 students in order to guarantee effectivity in achieving speedy, accurate and high quality learning.
5.
Tailored Instruction.
Just like how Leonardo Da Vinci taught his assistants, lessons are conducted in close relationship with each student.
