About
I am a sculptor and a winemaker, who loves the ancient wine making and generally the art in Greece.
A representative example of my work is the creation of armament of the electronic toy “Assassins Creed Odyssey”. I would be glad and satisfied to pass my knowledge and love in my appropriately arranged place for the occasion!

We had an amazing afternoon. Manos taught us about all of the things in his gallery, he taught us mythological stories and had a vast knowledge of all of the items. We then sculpted the head of Hermes head out of clay. He was a great teacher and very patient and helpful. Following that we had a variety of snacks and tried three different wines that Manos had made. We couldn’t have had any more, the experience was so much better than we imagined. I would recommend this trip to anyone who visits Athens.

What a wonderful way to spend time in Athens! The gallery workshop is beautiful and relaxing. Our sculpting instructor, Manos, is extremely talented and also a great teacher. Teen and adults alike had a great time, and our projects were packaged to take with us on our cruise that day.

Manos has created a unique space with ancient time wine production, weapon and armoury making according to ancient and authentic techniques and makes wonderful sculptures on an outstanding and very authoritative level.
The way he gives the workshop is really outstanding: easy to understand and pursue for beginners and non beginners. It is really great fun and you bring home an self made souvenir in a handy format. Thank you so much Manos!

Booked the Sculpture Workshop for my 14 year old and myself. We were welcomed by Manos who did a fantastic job of introducing the scene and the venue, an amazing reconstruction of an ancient Greek drinking party in honour of Dyonysus.
The workshop was perfectly user friendly, materials of top quality and clearly laid out. Manos takes you through all steps of creating a head sculpture while demonstrating hands on. We were thrilled with the result of our work which we got to take away flawlessly packed in a miniature box.
We are definitely going back when in Athens, and likely to try the Wine Tasting too.
Highly recommend.

Manos was wonderful sculpture and teacher. His studio offers a glimpse into the past and a look into the future. He is passionate about his work and sharing it with his students. Our sculpture class was a private session with just my husband and I. We had a great time,our sculptures made it home. Very cool Experience!!!

We were able to look at all of the art and make our own sculptures to take home. Our leader was a great teacher and we had a fun experience!
