La Romita School 

Providing art retreats, workshops, and residencies in Italy.

Founded in 1966, La Romita School of Art provides immersive residential workshops and creative retreats for artists from around the world. Our home is a meticulously preserved 16th-century monastery situated among the historic olive groves of Italy, offering a secluded environment for deep creative focus.

The La Romita Experience
For six decades, our mission has been to facilitate cultural exchange and artistic growth. We provide a distraction-free sanctuary where artists can engage with their process, supported by the rich history and landscape of the Umbrian region. Our location offers access to medieval villages and a traditional Italian atmosphere, intentionally removed from the impact of over-tourism.
