From the fibre to the garment, discover the secrets of the yarn craft and create your own personalised work!
The Musée des Métiers in Saint-Laurent-de-la-Plaine (Mauges-sur-Loire, 49) invites youngsters aged 8 to 15 to take a tactile and creative plunge into the world of fashion and the textile crafts of yesteryear.
A journey between tradition and modernity
L'épopée du fil (30 min): How is raw fibre transformed into a finished garment? Participants discover the manufacturing stages and the historical tools that have shaped our daily lives.
A unique opportunity for discussion: Don't miss the chance to meet a lace-maker. A chance to observe the precision and finesse of this art craft.
Art Filaire workshop: Time to create! Using the thread art technique, each child or teenager will create the initial of their first name. Patience and dexterity are the key to weaving a unique graphic motif.
Everyone goes home with their own original creation, a trendy, personalised wall decoration.
