From 8 to 10 November Lugano will host Evento Artigiano, a special initiative dedicated to craftsmanship, art and creativity.
In this third edition, which will take place in the historic and fascinating Villa Ciani, L’Artisanà will be present as a guest of honor, contributing to a continuous and productive dialogue between our reality and Ticino: it is in fact the second participation in the event and follows the success of the 2023 edition in which two wood craftsmen from the Aosta Valley had recounted their entrepreneurial experience.
Organised by Aticrea, the Ticino Association of Artisan Artists, the event will showcase the excellence of the Canton’s artistic crafts and the talented artisans who practice them.
This year, the central theme will be textiles. The event will offer not only exhibitions of artisans in the sector, but also practical demonstrations, workshops and meetings focused on professional training for the new generations of artisans.
L’Artisanà will have a dedicated room and will present the works created by the main artisans of the Aosta Valley in the textile sector. The development of the theme this year will be outlined following the fil rouge of the various moments of doing business in the Aosta Valley context: from production linked to self-consumption, to the search for traditional techniques and up to the application of the highest quality products to the most sought-after sectors and sometimes far from their original use.
