Default Help - find a gondola builder

Does anyone know where I can find Thom Price ?
(Website, email, ...)

He had a gondola workshop (squero) in Venice (Italy) until, I
estimate, sometime in 2006.
Since then there is no trace that I can find.

A recent trip to Venice has awakened my interest in these extra-
ordinary craft and Thom would appear to be the best English-speaking
expert around.
Any help gratefully received.


There was a gondola builder that showed up in Milwaukee, WI, U.S. some
years ago. I don't know what he's up to these days but he had a couple
of gondola's on the Milwaukee River. I wonder if he might know
something about Thom Price. You might search archives at The Milwaukee
Journal Sentinel for more info. I do know that the Milwaukee builder
had ties to Italy but had been in the states for quite some time.
