Alchimia is uniquely positioned in one of the most beautiful cities in the world: Florence.
Alchimia is in the heart of the San Frediano neighbourhood, in the lively Oltrarno district, where it is still possible to find workshops and businesses that reflect the very best of Italian artisan creativity: from the oldest silk workshop, still active after more than 200 years, to the master in-layers of wood and semi-precious stones, to the many goldsmiths, workshops for restoration, and leatherworkers making shoes and accessories to measure.
Alchimia is a nexus where all of these influences converge, where the air is infused with the Art and Beauty that surrounds the school, where different nationalities and cultures meet: A BEATING HEART where curiosity and the desire for knowledge make the personal and artistic development of each student not only possible but also natural.
