This year too, MAV is taking part in Plasirs de Culture , the event organised by the Department of Cultural Heritage and Activities, Education System and Policies for Intergenerational Relations in conjunction with the European Heritage Days.
The cultural event, which will take place from 14 to 22 September 2024 in various locations in the Aosta Valley, has as its theme the Heritage of networks, routes and connections and invites everyone to reflect on the specific itinerary identity of our regional territory of which artisanal productions are the mirror.
During the whole week the MAV is open to the public free of charge to allow everyone to discover the richness and variety of our craftsmanship.
At the MAV Craft School
The bell is about to ring in schools and students and teachers are ready to start a new year.
Also for the 2024-2025 school year, MAV has created an educational offer to discover manual craftsmanship aimed at classes of all levels . The museum’s educational proposals enhance the exhibition path and the exhibited heritage, but above all the experimentation of doing. The strengths of the MAV educational offer, namely individual experimentation, active participation, manual skills and creativity , are always present because the museum strongly believes in an educational approach that puts the child and his potential at the center of the learning path. The goal is that every child can find new learning stimuli in our museum and that teachers can find a place similar to their teaching method. For this reason, in addition to the laboratories present in the educational offer, the educational services staff is always available for the creation of ad hoc projects.

We look forward to welcoming you back to our museum and experiencing the new workshops together!
