The European Artistic Crafts Days event is devoted to the arts and crafts of excellence and is promoted in France by the INMA-Institut National des Metiers d’Art of Paris and in Italy by Fondazione Cologni dei Mestieri d'Arte of Milan and OMA together with Artex of Florence. The event, now in its tenth year, has achieved an international scope and several other European cities have been taking part in it for some years. The initiative’s purpose is to make the fascinating but often unexplored world of artistic crafts known to a wider public through workshops, conferences and lectures. This year’s theme is “Artistic Crafts, Tomorrow’s Gestures”. The program of initiatives held in Milan and Florence is viewable on: www.giornatedeimestieridarte.it and www.osservatoriomestieridarte.it
