The Lace Museum is now part of the 'Homo Faber Guide', a guide to the most relevant museums in Europe in the handicraft sector

At the end of last year, a photographic documentation process was carried out of all the museum's material to send it to the Michelangelo Foundation, creators of the guide.

The Camariñas Lace Museum is now part of the 'Homo Faber Guide', a guide that has selected the most interesting of craftsmanship and design in the European context.

All the information about the Camariñan museum space and images of what visitors will be able to find there is now available on the guide's website, through the following link: https://www.homofaberguide.com/en/visit/visit-camari-as-lace-museum

At the end of 2020, the City Council of Camariñas was carrying out a process of photographic documentation of all the museum's material to send it, along with information about each piece and general data about the Lace Museum, to the Michelangelo Foundation, creators of the guide.

The project https://www.homofaberguide.com/ aims to highlight the best craftsmen in Europe and the most relevant museums, galleries, workshops and shops in the sector, as well as facilitating alliances within the community. It is a very visually attractive platform, in which each reference or institution has its own page with photos, text about its activity and useful information (location, opening hours, etc.).

“We continue with our process of internationalizing lace through the inclusion of the museum in this project,” highlighted the councilor of the Mostra, Encarna Liñeiro, who explained that “we want it to become a contact forum for the artisan community but also a tool to spread the craft among the interested public.”

What is Homo Faber?

The Michelangelo Foundation is an international institution dedicated to promoting craftsmanship and design. In 2018, it organized the first-ever 'Homo Faber' craft meeting, which showcased works by over 400 European craftsmen and designers. This year, the second edition was to be held in Japan, but had to be postponed to 2021 due to the spread of COVID-19.
