This street festival brings together craftsmen, artists in painting and ancient crafts: blacksmiths, weavers, jewelers, glass blowers, gunsmiths, carvers, stonecutters, painters, beekeepers, batik artists, folk toys, pysanky, embroidery, beadwork, ceramics, etc..
Fair — Festival «Lviv — the capital of crafts» is held annually in the center of Lviv. Although the fair is international, but most of the participants are from Lviv, and therefore represent the professions that have shaped the culture of the city for centuries.
The difference of this festival is that the masters in the open air show everyone how to create this or that thing. You will see how to make beautiful figures from ordinary glass literally in minutes. All this takes place at a glowing lamp, so it is quite hot to stand near it.
Interesting coins can be carved right in front of you with an inscription, such as King Danilo or something else.
Some craftsmen allow visitors to try their own skills in making some things. For example, weave a doll, to which willingly joined not only girls, but also men. Very interesting.
Come to Lviv on the City Day and feel the spirit of ancient crafts, visit the city that combines ancient traditions and modern ambitions, the city of Piedmont of Ukrainian statehood and peacefulness, the city of temples and fortresses.
