Day 8: Hello Montefalco!

Today, the photography students explored Montefalco, a beautiful village in Umbria. Situated in the central west of Umbria, Montefalco stands on a hill carpeted with olive trees and grape vines, in the middle of the valley of the Clitunno, Topino and Tiber rivers. This breathtaking position has led to Montefalco being known as The Balcony-rail of Umbria. Because of its environmental, cultural, and artistic heritage, Montefalco has become part of the club The Most Beautiful Villages of Italy.

Meanwhile, Visual Arts students had studio time to finish their various pieces in preparation for tomorrow’s final showcase event.

In the evening, instead of having dinner at the Hotel Clitunno like usual, students dined in small groups with SSA faculty members at restaurants throughout Spoleto. It’s the penultimate day for our intensive students, and we can’t believe how time has flown!
