The Old Crafts Workshop of The Fine Crafts Association of Vilnius implemented a project "Medieval Echoes in the Streets of Vilnius" in the Autumn of 2019. The main goal was to actualize historical locations of craft guilds in the Old Vilnius and link them with nowadays craft and art workshops and galleries by celebrating the 25th anniversary since Vilnius Historic Center was inscribed into UNESCO World Heritage List.
Project is partly financed by the Department of Cultural Heritage under the Ministry of Culture.
