Artisans at Work

Visit an ÉCONOMUSÉE and discover heritage brought to life.

Meet a silversmith, jam with a wild-berry producer, or get snagged by the traditional craft of rug hooking. At every ÉCONOMUSÉE you can drink in the history of local trades like brewing, wine-making, or maple syrup production. And you can also see how the beer, wine and syrup are made today - combining traditional know-how and modern equipment. Discover the innovations in handspinning, pewter-making and goldsmithing as ÉCONOMUSÉE artisans put a contemporary spin on the crafts of our past.

At each ÉCONOMUSÉE you visit, you can chat directly with the artisan, take a look at their workshop, and watch them making the items you can pick up in the boutique. How'd you like to meet a soap-maker, or a bijoutier? Or perhaps an artisan working with stoneware or fused glass? Whether it's rope-making that turns your crank, pomiculture that gets your mouth watering, or cabinet-making that opens your doors, there is an ÉCONOMUSÉE artisan waiting for you, ready to craft an experience into every visit.
