Mani Milano Lab is a space dedicated to ceramic enthusiasts with an artistic bent, open to everyone: curious beginners, craftspeople of all skill levels, and more experienced ceramists looking for a place to grow and experiment.

The workshop was founded in May 2022 by textile designer and ceramist Daria Dazzan and entrepreneur Alfredo Giardina, both united by a passion for art, design, and shared creative processes.

01

THE LAB

Un luogo dove la ceramica incontra le persone.
Manimilano's space is not just a workshop, but a creative meeting place: here you get your hands dirty, learn, and share authentic experiences.

02

COMMUNITY

We believe in the value of hands working together. Our courses and workshops are designed to bring anyone closer to ceramics, regardless of age or experience, building an open and inclusive community.

03

MATERIALS

Respect for materials and the environment.
We use carefully selected clays and glazes, valuing traditional craftsmanship and promoting sustainable practices, so that every creation embodies responsible thinking.

04

PROCESS

From gesture to transformation.
Every stage of the process—modeling, finishing, glazing, firing—is an integral part of the experience. We do not seek perfection, but rather the beauty of imperfection that makes each piece unique.

05

EXPERIENCE

A memory that lasts over time.
Manimilano is not just a ceramics course: it is an experience to be enjoyed and cherished. An opportunity to slow down, rediscover your manual skills, and come away with something that says something about you.

REGOLE / POLICY

To get the most out of your experience in our ceramics workshop, it is essential to know and follow a few simple rules.
The Manimilano Rules protect the space and everyone's work and ensure a peaceful, safe, and welcoming environment.
