Description
A meeting with one of the last weavers of Calabria to learn, calmly and precisely, the ancient art of the loom.
From the preparation of the warp to the first steps of the weft, you will follow essential gestures passed down through generations, until you create a small handcrafted fabric.
The experience is designed for those starting from scratch: the artisan will guide you step by step, explaining techniques, rhythms, and the meaning of traditional motifs. It is a manual and relaxing workshop, where creativity intertwines with local culture.
At the end, you will take home the crafted item, practical notes, and the confidence to continue at home: because the skill of doing, when shared, remains.
