Ardelean Crafts Festival - 2nd edition

🎻 And this year, Târgu Mureș Citadel turns into a traditional playground ➡ in September we are organizing the Ardelenești Crafts Festival for the second time!

🌷 Presenting folk crafts, supporting the traditional folk culture of Transylvania, preserving and passing it on to the next generations ➡ this is the mission of the Ardelean Crafts Festival. Our goal is to create value, to provide space for the revitalization of old crafts, to support Transylvanian craftsmen and help them in the creative process. Just as folktales and folk songs are passed down by word of mouth, so folk crafts are passed down from hand to hand, and survive only if there is someone to inherit them.

🎲 The main theme of this year's Ardelean Crafts Festival is GAME, which will be reflected both in the location and in the programs, thus transforming the fortress into a popular playground where the little ones will be able to discover and experience traditional popular games and their making , and the older ones will have the opportunity to remember their childhood. 🎶 The event will include craft demonstrations, craft activities, craft fair, the discovery of unique popular games, as well as various exhibitions, professional and popular music presentations, and concerts that will enrich the program.

🔸 Federation of Handicraft Associations from Transylvania (EKESZ),
