May 17, 2025 – 9:45 AM
Museo del Tessuto, Prato
This event, organized by Artex in collaboration with Museo del Tessuto and funded as part of the European project Recharge, represents an important opportunity to explore the new frontiers of craftsmanship and design, with a particular focus on the opportunities offered by the online world and the original experiences that define this sector.
Guest speaker Prof. Stefano Micelli from Ca’ Foscari University will offer insights into the future of craftsmanship, exploring the intersection between digital innovation and community. The event will also feature international case studies on craft and design networks for online sales, with contributions from Ateliers d’Art de France and the “Botiga Empremtes de Catalunya” Consortium.
A special focus will be placed on the Museo del Tessuto’s e-shop and the direct experiences of artisans who have found success in the digital landscape.
To close the event, a valuable opportunity is reserved for a select group of artisans to present their products directly to the e-shop manager of the Museo del Tessuto.
