Artigianato d'autore - Italian craftsmanship fair

In the heart of Florence, the cloister of a 14th-century monastery provides the setting for Artigianato d’Autore, a market exhibition celebrating the excellence of Italian craftsmanship.

On September 26 and 27, artisans and creatives from across Italy will showcase original creations and unique pieces, including tailored clothing, jewellery, bags and accessories, illustrations, home décor, furnishings and tableware.

Meet the makers, discover their stories and explore the value of Italian craftsmanship and creativity.

The programme also features workshops and special events in the atmospheric Bistrot della Calza, overlooking the portico and inner garden.

Throughout the weekend, the Della Calza bar will be open from breakfast through to the evening aperitivo. Guided tours of the historic areas of the complex will also be available on both days.
