Week 14 2025

 Hello!

We have been readying ourselves at the Maison des Artisans in SAuveterre because this weekend is the annual Journées Européennes des Métiers d’Art where artisans throughout Europe open their workshops to the public and share their skills.  
 
In Sauveterre, La Maison des Artisans is open on the Saturday and  Sunday and welcomes you to come and visit, try your hand at weaving, learn about making lamps from gourdes and put hands in clay.
 
On Friday we will receive students from the local college who will be developing their school projects with activities in clay, felting and gourde carving. A great way to find out more about local artists and artisans.
 
Whatever you do in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, have a great week.
Best wishes,
Helen

Week 13 2025

 Hello!

Don't forget to change your clocks this weekend.   Loosing an hour in the morning, means an hour extra sunlight at the end of the day. Or, think like a cat...

 


Whatever you do in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, have a good week. 
Best wishes,
Helen
