Textile Arts Fair

Markets, fairs

On Saturday, November 1, and Sunday, November 2, 2025, Piazza Santa Croce will come alive with the colors and creativity of the Textile Arts Fair — two days entirely dedicated to authentic craftsmanship, where tradition meets innovation.
Visitors will have the chance to discover the charm of one of humanity’s oldest arts, explore handmade creations, and meet artisans who transform fabric, thread, and inspiration into unique works of beauty.

There will be plenty of space for the work of dyers, spinners, and weavers — talented young artisans who move with ease between tradition and innovation.
The 2025 edition focuses on the use of plant-based waste as natural dyes, highlighting sustainability and the principles of a circular economy.

Adding to the program, a variety of workshops for children will offer fun, hands-on ways to explore the world of textiles and creativity.
