What to expect

Embark on a unique journey to Villacidro, located in the heart of Sardinia, and discover the thousand-year-old art of Sardinian weaving.

Immerse yourself in the mysterious essence of Sardinia, from its Nuragic era to its more modern influences; the ancient art of weaving originated among people for everyday needs: creating blankets, cloths, and sacks. This unique journey will reveal to you the magical-symbolic and spiritual aspect that links the remote past with the present. During the experience, you will have the opportunity to learn about the different processes involved in the processing of wool: from washing to carding, from spinning to weaving with vegetable dyes. Experiencing weaving on a traditional horizontal loom will be an exciting moment of connection with ancient textile practices, rooted in Sardinian tradition.

Don't miss the chance to experience this workshop in a local school, which is an integral part of a Special Family Home.
