The session in Alajeró is the final module of an island-wide training programme organised by the La Gomera Island Council. The sessions will take place on Wednesday 25 November 2026 and Thursday 26 November 2026, from 16:30 to 19:30 on both days.

In terms of content, the module focuses on generational change in the craft sector and on pedagogical principles. It teaches skills that will enable craftspeople to pass on their techniques, safeguard knowledge and support the next generation in the sector. This is complemented by practical approaches to training new generations in the craft sector.

Artesanía Viva also covers other topics aimed at strengthening the craft sector on La Gomera, including digital skills, design and creativity, marketing and sales, management and craft entrepreneurship, as well as Canary Islands craft techniques. In addition to face-to-face and practical sessions, the project includes digital content and learning support via a virtual campus.

Enrolment takes place directly through the Academia Axón training centre, either in person or by telephone on 922 87 18 56 between 8:00 and 20:00.
