A Vancouver Island University professor is offering a guided tour of Florence

Vancouver Island University is launching a program called Adventures in Mind – not for students, but specially designed for anyone who has a burning desire to explore the history and culture of Florence with a knowledgeable guide from VIU.

Adventures in Mind is a 22-day immersion in art, architecture, literature and philosophy, covering the works of such figures as Dante, Giotto, Donatello, Brunelleschi, Masaccio, Leonardo, Michelangelo and Gentileschi. Activities include presentations, seminar discussions and visits to museums, galleries and other sites in Florence and elsewhere.

Adventures in Mind is scheduled to get underway in May 2017. For more, please visit https://adm.viu.ca/adventures-in-mind.
