Description
Our Project seeks to create world-class art by applying monastic principles to art-making instead of religion. We are transforming a monastery 45-minutes NE of Rome, in Umbria, into an international non-profit arts production center. While the monastery is under construction, we are running a prototype of the community , just 5 minutes away at the former agriturismo . We run workshops and offer accommodations at the guest house to support our production of art projects.

-> Art Project (contemplative art community) seeks like minded helpers for our guest house , near Rome , ItalyI stayed here in Feb 2010. I had a wonderful time. The property and the views are stunning. And the hosts are awesome. They are fun and intelligent and really made me feel at home.
The Santa Brigida was only just opening back up after being closed for the winter, so it was quiet and not a lot going on with lots of people yet but it was still enchanting. They had me doing some cleaning, moving of wood, some art projects and I made some Limoncello (the first stage).
I look forward to going back very soon!! I highly recommend this experience!

-> Art Project (contemplative art community) seeks like minded helpers for our guest house , near Rome , ItalyI stayed here a week, and fell in love with the place. It was in November, so not much going on with guests and programs, just being at the Casale was wonderful, and my hosts were welcoming and friendly. They had me cleaning, and working in the garden, and caring for the chickens. I highly recommend this place! -Wendy
