L’atelier de l’Abat-Carre – Journées Européennes des Métiers d’Art

The smell of leather, old tools that are still in their youth, traditional skills that sometimes go off the beaten track, only to come back again, and unique, original, hand-sewn pieces: you're at a saddlery and leatherwork shop.
On Sundays, you can try your hand at leatherwork and make a creation that you'll take home with you.

Christine Bizeul, the village ceramist from the "Chats Poterie" workshop, will also be on hand to give throwing demonstrations. Christine creates utilitarian objects such as bowls and cups with a metallic sheen, as well as decorative objects and characters from a very natural world.

We'll be joined over the three days by Kevin Chouvier, from the Atelier du Gobelin. Kevin is a metal engraver who uses state-of-the-art techniques to create objects in brass and steel, including shop signs, sports trophies and role-playing accessories. Kevin is just starting out, and we're here to support him!
