Venice Art Mask Factory is a half-hour walk from the city center, and well worth the trip. We saw the showroom first and were blown away. After taking in the showroom, we saw the factory. It is a light-filled building with two rows of long tables where the masks move from table to table as they become masterpieces. We were shown around by Tony, who explained the mask-making process in detail and answered all our questions. Don’t miss the Venice Art Mask Factory when you visit Shkoder.

So happy that we didn’t miss this absolutely inspiring experience. Very interesting to see the factory and show room with beautiful masks. Use this opportunity to buy masks! During working days till 15.00/15.30 there is an opportunity to do the workshop and paint your own mask with help from professionals (time depending on your creativity and cost around 30 eur) Our family just loved it and kods called it- the factory of joy!

There were lots and lots of masks to be seen here. We walked around 25 minutes from the centre of Shkoder to come and admire all these masks. There were some very quirky and interesting ones. We left with nothing, deciding not to buy any because we aren't really all that into masks. Not really. I think they were quite expensive. But definitely worth a visit.

This is a must stop while visiting Shkoder. You can take a short tour of the factory for 3 Euro and as well visit the show room. I suggest taking the tour as it gives you a better perspective while visiting the show room. Mask are for sale. They do ship if you can't carry it on the plane. I was at the facility by my self and Tony gave me a great tour and explained the process very thoroughly. I walked to the factory and it took approximately 45 minutes from downtown.

Venice masks are not something I would usually be interested in, but after reading some very enthusiastic reviews, I gave it a try. I am glad I did not miss this, the masks are beautiful and it is great to see them in the showroom setting, it provides a context. The staff are very nice, too.
