    Ariel and Marisa are excellent artists and teachers. We learned about various printing techniques, drank delicious beers, ate yummy focaccia, met interesting people and printed our own beer coasters in a single night's workshop. Highly recommend a visit to their studio/museum or online store. Update: After three workshops with them, still excellent!

    Incredible experience!! From the entrance to Palacio Durazno you are surprised by a different atmosphere. You leave the elevator behind and enter the workshop, where you breathe another air. The aromas of the inks and pints envelop you. The passion, dedication and wisdom of Ariel and Marisa make time pass and you don't register it. You leave full of learning and wanting more. 100% recommended!!! A pleasure.

    It was a really great experience! I learned a lot about so many things... Marisa and Ariel not only know the history of design and art but are an inexhaustible source of technical, artisanal and human knowledge. The great dedication and enormous vocation for teaching is evident in both and the passion they transmit is contagious. I thank you very much for the experience and I 100% recommend the workshops. Soon I will be in another one and I look forward to it with great excitement!!!!! Good Lyrics are much more than good, they are Excellent!!!!!! Those who have the opportunity to take advantage of the workshops, please do not stop doing so!!!

    Beautiful workshop in the Palacio de Durazno, an emblematic building in Montevideo from the 1920s, led by Ariel and Marisa, very hospitable and knowledgeable in various manual design techniques related to lettering and printing, among others. With a spectacular view of the promenade, a magical place full of creativity.

    Estuve haciendo un taller de cianotipia y fue increíble tanto la experiencia, cómo la onda que le ponen Marisa y Ariel. El lugar físico del taller es soñado, cuentan con todos los materiales y ambos están dispuestos a intercambiar información de todo lo que hacen. ¡Super recomiendo!

    It's the second workshop I've gone to and they never cease to surprise me. Marisa and Ariel are in all the details so that the experience of trying new techniques is incredible. They generate a very special creative and collaborative environment. Thank you so much!!! And for the next one I attend, I still have many techniques to discover and enjoy in Buena Letra, greetings!!

    Una visita a Montevideo merece incluir pasar por Buena Letra, o en su defecto, viajar especialmente a Montevideo “para hacer” un taller en Buena Letra

    Excelente el curso. Me encantó el tema del grabado de sellos a mano, y la calidez y buena onda de Ariel y Marisa completó la experiencia. Da ganas de seguir con otros talleres!

    Son muy capos y cálidos. Solventes y generosos. El taller fue divertido, interesante, delicioso (qué merienda!) y relajante. Y el edificio y el apartamento del museo-taller son maravillosos. Super recomiendo toda la experiencia. Gracias

    Last Saturday I was lucky enough to be able to attend the Cyanotype workshop. An incredible technique, Marisa and Ariel are geniuses at teaching, they share all their knowledge, they are very generous. I will continue looking in BUENA LETRA for other workshops to do it. THANK YOU 😍

    I highly recommend, from the human quality as a professional! Without a doubt I recommend you go! And it is a beautiful place full of history in each piece of its workshop! They transport you back in time with their decoration and tools for good writing and illustrations!

    Beautiful experience! I didn't know the place or the workshops they offer and I found a place that one day I hope to return to. Marisa and Ariel are not only excellent professionals but they also love people and this is demonstrated in the workshops. Super recommended!

    On Saturday the 12th I went to Buena Letra to participate in an engraving workshop. Upon arrival I was received with tremendous warmth, in a space that wherever you looked was loaded with history; The amount of material, information and experience is incredible, and the space overflows with Marisa and Ariel's passion for what they do. It truly is a museum and a unique space to learn and experience all these ancient arts. Without hesitation I will participate in a new workshop again, they are worth it
