From July 13 to 18, 2026, Arte Sella will host the fifth edition of MADE LABS, the innovative summer training initiative that this year celebrates the tenth anniversary of the MADE Program with a prestigious special collaboration with Arte Sella.
Five days of intensive workshops and conferences led by world-renowned creatives and professionals, aimed at designers, architects, and artists eager to explore new developments in their respective fields.
💡 The Theme: Techno-Craft
Curated by Domitilla Dardi (art and design historian and head of Arte Sella Design), the Summer School is developed around the concept of ''Techno-Craft'': an approach that aims to create a direct and synergistic connection between theoretical and scientific training in technology and artisanal practice.
The goal is to transcend old educational paradigms that have long considered these two worlds as opposites, offering participants the opportunity to explore techniques and concepts that transcend traditional academic disciplinary boundaries, taking full advantage of the local resources and technical partnerships.
👤 The Teachers
This year's teaching staff boasts exceptional international names:
◆ Agostino Iacurci - Artist
