"Helen has come home absolutely buzzing with excitement. You have genuinely inspired her with your knowledge and enthusiasm and the 'light bulb' has been well and truly switched 'on'. I honestly think that she has been moved and affected by what she has seen in a way I could not hope to have inspired. What a terrific gift you all must have - we are so grateful to you. So nice for a parent who has been trying for years to transmit the sort of excitement about art which you have with no apparent result, maybe some of it rubbed off but all credit to AHA."
Anne Lever, mother of Helen, Summer 2005
Summer Holiday Courses in Northern Italy
The Northern Italy Tour is a rare and special thing for a holiday. It is an eclectic combination of holiday, learning and travel which aims to give students an enlightening two weeks.
The course places the art, architecture and sculpture of Italy within the broader context of Western Civilization while opening the eyes of students to art. Within the two weeks students will have a taster of Italian lifestyle and will enjoy Italian food, wine and music in the balmy summer heat. You will spend 5 nights in Venice, 5 nights in Florence and 4 in Rome, with free time built into the programme in every city.
Students should drop any of the ideas they have about teachers versus students, as do all our tutors - this is not a 'school trip'. Our brilliant tutors are dynamic, enthusiastic experts from various academic fields. They roll back the disciplines of formal education and provide an inter-disciplinary approach that includes (to name a few) philosophy, history, theology and mythology.
Come and join us in Italy for two weeks down the peninsula with a well structured and fabulous programme of art, architecture and Italian fun.
