GUIDEBOOK


This guidebook was produced in the context of the Erasmus+ project Crafts Youth Future Engagement (CYFE), co-founded by the European Commission.

The guidebook (a free resource available in 7 languages) aims at being a helpful tool for youth workers and educators, as well as parents, who wish to introduce youngsters to the world of crafts. The guide gives the floor to craftspeople who kindly accepted to tell us their story. They are professionals in woodworking, wood stove making, glass blowing, organ and harpsichord making, textile, metal engraving and many other crafts. 

Hoping that the testimonials will inspire new careers, the guidebook is enriched with a list of schools, and workshops where to learn crafts.
