Mostra-Concorso dell'Artigianato Valdostano di Tradizione

The 2025 edition, the 72nd, was held in Piazza Chanoux, Aosta, from July 19 to 27, with 183 works in competition that told the story of Aosta Valley savoir-faire and explored its contemporary aspects through the research and creativity of artisans. The jury, chaired by Guido Corniolo and composed of experts in Aosta Valley history and ethnography, awarded prizes by category. Among the competing sectors were agricultural tools and objects (with the theme of the *lecca da casaro* - cheesemaker's paddle), won by Renato Daniele Vacquin ahead of Enrico Chenal and Marco Marconi, and leather and hide working (theme: *knife sheath*), with the first prize awarded to Giuseppe Bruno. The event confirmed its role in opening the summer season of traditional craftsmanship promoted by the Autonomous Region of Aosta Valley.
