4th edition of the traveling textile arts exhibition
An exhibition spanning nearly three centuries, reaching into the present and presenting textile arts as a living language that connects beauty, work and autonomy.
Embroidery, Lace and Artist Textiles brings together historical and contemporary works, creating a dialogue that highlights craftsmanship as both artistic expression and a means of empowerment. Refined embroideries, delicate lace and artist-designed textiles testify to a body of knowledge passed down through generations, capable of evolving while preserving its identity. These are not merely craft techniques, but true artistic expressions that tell stories of women, education and independence.
The exhibition is enriched by live demonstrations and free hands-on experiences designed for adults and children alike, offering a direct encounter with textile techniques. Visitors can observe traditional gestures up close, discover their complexity and reconnect with a heritage that remains relevant today.
Alongside its historical dimension, the exhibition also offers a contemporary perspective: textile arts are increasingly recognized as intangible cultural heritage and as a dynamic creative field. The exhibition thus becomes a bridge between generations, linking tradition and innovation.
A single thread runs through it all, connecting past and future, memory and creativity, showing how the work of the hands can still generate value, identity and new opportunities.
