Steve Chambers in Verona, Italy: Graduation from "Sustainable Design in Stone"

In the four days of classroom work and touring various facilities, we both realize that we learn more than we ever imagined about the world stone industry.  Another added benefit is than we become very close to our fellow professionals and lecturers and later miss them as we stay on to tour the Veneto region of Italy. The MARMOMACC show is overwhelming in its size, breadth, and beauty—again, it must be something about that Italian/Etruscan sense of design. It is not possible for us to see in its entirety, but we give it our best shot in the final day there. At last, we graduate, receive certification for the coursework, and celebrate by going to Pizza School at Pizzeria de Massimo in Illasi, Verona, Italy. Maestro Massimo Cicco, a designated “World Champion of Innovative Pizza,” teaches our class. A liberal amount of vino rosso instills an exaggerated sense of self-confidence in our ability to cook and perform. But, we are humbled when we see the inventive pizzas he presents to us after our cooking lessons. The party closes with the representatives of the nine participating countries performing songs of their homelands.
