The John Hall Venice Course: European Culture and Tradition
- Italy
- Venice
About Program
The John Hall Venice Course is a nine week residential course in London, Venice, Florence and Rome that introduces gap year students to some of the most wonderful aspects of culture. There are lectures and visits taken by a team of world-class experts with subjects ranging from music, cinema, art history, architecture, literature, climate science and much more. There are also classes in cookery, photography, Italian language and life drawing. It runs once a year, from late January to late March. The heart of the experience is 6 weeks in Venice - to be in the historic and uniquely beautiful city of Venice, living more like a resident than a tourist, is a life-changing experience. The programme gives a foretaste of a university style of living and learning. It leaves students with not only some lifelong friendships, but also with a seriously improved CV.
