until 17 May
From 14 to 17 May, the Zuiderzee Museum will be buzzing with craftsmanship. During the Crafts Festival, you will see old crafts in action, from blacksmith to fish smoker. And young makers? They just join in. Book your discount tickets online.
Delve into the stories behind fishermen's jumpers and their recognisable patterns from the region. Walk along with the brushmaker, see the fine carvings of statuary and ornament carvers and experience in the forging lab how crafts really come alive.
Wool processing also gets plenty of attention. You will see how wool is washed, carded, spun and dyed with natural colours. So you follow step by step how raw wool turns into something beautiful.
