Discover Venetian Carnival Masks at Epcot

Discover Venetian Carnival Masks at Epcot



Giorgio Iurcotta is a true Venetian Mask artisan and has been a part of a centuries-old tradition that is as colorful and complicated as Venice itself. He relocated to Florida from Venice, Italy, in 2001 to represent the company his mother owns – Balocoloc Artisans of Venice – and can be found quietly painting beautiful and mysterious paper mache masks inside a small shop within the Italy Pavilion.



I had the pleasure of visiting my friend Giorgio recently and want to share a few images of some of the magnificent masks that he and his family have created.


If you have never taken in the spirit of Carnevale di Venezia, I would encourage you to stop by on your next Epcot visit. You won’t be disappointed.
