Artigianato&Palazzo: for Florentines an unmissable event, for tourists a discovery to be made.
This event, which is halfway between a fair, a workshop and an open-air party, this year marks its 30th birthday.
Thirty editions to valorise and promote the craft traditions and the most daring innovations in a timeless setting, the garden, farm outbuildings and rooms of Palazzo Corsini, a noble palace in the centre of Florence, a true immersion in beauty.
From September 13 to 15, with master craftsmen from Italy and around the world, with a focus on restorers, thanks to the project "Firenze città del restauro" of the local Chamber of Commerce.
There will also be several special projects: exhibitions, meetings, debates, workshops and guided tours of the garden Giardino Corsini sul Prato, a true pearl in the heart of the city.
Among the projects "30 al cubo", a collective exhibition of 30 artisans, each with 3 pieces on display. Promoted by Artex - Center for Artistic and Traditional Craftsmanship of Tuscany.

In addition there will be a fundraising to restore Buontalenti's Loggia, which introduces the garden from the palace: the aim is to open it to the public in the future.
