Italy Made with Love

Premiering Monday, Mar. 7 at 7 p.m.

Travel through Italy to meet some of the country’s most remarkable artisans — from glassblowers in Venice to ceramic makers in Umbria; from cashmere weavers in Genoa to olive oil makers in Tuscany; to chefs who create the delectable dishes that reflect regional culinary traditions. Italy Made With Love celebrates these artisans’ exceptional eye, the discerning palate, the distinct finesse, and, most of all, the love for the craft. Highlighting the talent and dedication being passed on to the next generation of apprentices.

In a time when most products are mass-produced, Italy Made With Love focuses on the painters, weavers, jewelers, artists and craftspeople who still fashion exceptional items by hand. The precision, the customization, the delicate perfection, and the love for the art provide unique perspectives on what keeps traditions and cultures everlasting.

PBS special programming invites viewers to experience the worlds of science, history, nature and public affairs; hear diverse viewpoints; and take front-row seats to world-class drama and performances.
