A creative and authentic workshop to discover the art of Ligurian tailoring. Take part in a unique experience and bring home a special memory of Genoa.
Participants will have the opportunity to create a tote bag or a pochette, inspired by the colors of the city or using traditional “picaggette” – typical Genoese tablecloths decorated with local motifs.
With the assistance of experienced artisans, you will be able to add themed applications — such as anchovies, lanterns, or other symbols of Genoa — making each creation truly personal.
Beginners will also enjoy the workshop: it is designed for all skill levels, in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. It’s the perfect way to create a handmade souvenir,
a gift for yourself, or a special present for your loved ones (such as a small pouch for children’s laundry).
