Young people were introduced to a craft from the past in February, when they experienced the miracle of making wood models with the help of Lajos Dormány, a craftsman from Săcueni. The LEGO-like wood carving was a beautiful glimpse of a terraced farmhouse, a barn, a wagon and a working well, evoking a not-so-distant past. Of course, the children also had the opportunity to try out how to build a wooden shed.

The event, organised by the Ér Hangja Association, was part of the project “Digitisation of crafts in the Ier Valley”, which aims to involve and familiarise local students with traditional crafts in the region. The project, supported by the European Solidarity Corps and implemented by the Ér Hangja Association in partnership with the Petőfi Sándor High School and the Săcueni Town Hall, introduces young people to the crafts of the Ier Valley region.
