Malte – Malta

Malta’s artisans welcome you into their creative spaces


The Malta Crafts Foundation reaches out to various artisans, and also Municipalities, in order to create an interactive map full of artisans and activities. Artisans either place their studio on the map so that they can be located and visited by the public, and others opt to engage with their audiences by offering workshops, and passing on some of their skills to visitors. Municipalities promote artisans in their locality and assist in the promotion of this event in order to entice the public to participate in the activities available during these days.

As part of its participation in European Crafts Days, the Malta Crafts Foundation actively engages with artisans across Malta and Gozo to create a dynamic and interactive map showcasing craft experiences throughout the islands.

Artisans are invited to feature their studios on the map, making their spaces accessible to the public, while others further engage audiences by hosting workshops and sharing their skills and creative processes. This initiative offers visitors a unique opportunity to discover local craftsmanship firsthand.

In addition, the Malta Crafts Foundation will launch a series of courses across various crafts. Some of these will take place within the artisans’ own workshops, while others will be held at the workshop facilities of the Incubation Centre at Ta’ Qali Artisan Village.

Municipalities play an important role by promoting artisans within their localities and supporting outreach efforts, helping to encourage public participation and foster a deeper appreciation of Malta’s rich craft heritage during these celebratory days.

On the 12th April, the Region of Culture for 2026 – Port Regional Council will be collaborating with the Malta Crafts Foundation through the organisation of a large artisan market under the historic arches in the village of Floriana, just outside the capital, Valletta. Traditionally used as a marketplace, this space is being revitalised through the Floriana Local Council’s initiative. Combined with the spirit of European Crafts Days, it offers an ideal setting for the public to engage directly with artisans and experience Malta’s craft traditions in a vibrant and authentic environment.

Les artisans de Malte vous accueillent dans leur atelier.


Grâce à l’initiative de la Malta Crafts Foundation, une carte interactive en ligne sera créée pour indiquer l’emplacement des artisans qui participeront aux JEMA sur les îles maltaises.

La carte interactive fournira au public une indication claire des endroits où il peut se rendre pour rendre visite aux artisans et obtenir un meilleur aperçu de leur travail créatif et de leurs oeuvres – peut-être même juste au coin de la rue ou dans les villages voisins.

La plupart des artisans d’art organiseront des sessions d’ateliers et des démonstrations spécifiques tout au long de la semaine afin d’offrir aux visiteurs une vue d’ensemble et une expérience pratique de l’artisanat qu’ils aiment, des compétences requises et des oeuvres qui sont créées.
La Malta Crafts Foundation collabore avec des artisans basés à Malte pour mettre en valeur la créativité et l’innovation locales, tout en soulignant les différents aspects de l’économie culturelle et créative florissante de Malte.

L-artiġjana ta’ Malta jilqgħuk fl-ispazji kreattivi tagħhom

Permezz tal-inizjattiva tal-Malta Crafts Foundation, se tinħoloq mappa interattiva online, biex tingħata informazzjoni dwar fejn wiehed jista’ jsib l-artiġjana madwar il-gżejjer Maltin, li se jkunu qed jieħdu sehem fl-EACD.

Il-mappa interattiva se tipprovdi lill-pubbliku indikazzjoni ċara ta’ fejn jistgħu imorru biex iżuru l-artiġjana u jiksbu aktar għarfien dwar ix-xogħol u l-prodotti kreattivi tagħhom. Dawn possibilment anke jinsabu kantuniera ‘l bogħod minn darhom, jew anke fl-irħula ġirien, u min jaf kemm-il darba għaddew minn ħdejhom mingħajr ma kienu konxji tas-sbuħija li kienet qed tinħoloq ġewwa.

Il-biċċa l-kbira tal-artiġjana se jorganizzaw ‘workshops’ u dimostrazzjonijiet speċifiċi matul din il-ġimgħa kollha sabiex jipprovdu lill-viżitaturi b’ħarsa ħolistika u esperjenza prattika tas-sengħa li jħobbu.

Huwa ta’ pjaċir għall-Malta Crafts Foundation li tikkollabora ma’ artiġjana bbażati f’Malta biex turi l-kreattività u l-innovazzjoni lokali, filwaqt li tenfasizza aspetti differenti tal-ekonomija kulturali u kreattiva b’saħħitha ta’ Malta.
