What is «Diseña tu azulejo»
«Diseña tu azulejo» is a workshop-tour at the Museu de Ceràmica in Valencia that combines two parts: a guided tour of the museum’s tile collection and a workshop where each participant decorates their own tile and takes it home. The museum includes this activity in its family workshop programme.
The tour introduces the history of tiles through the pieces in the museum’s collection, while the workshop puts what participants have learned into practice by designing a personal tile based on the tour.
Where it takes place
The activity is held at the National Ceramics and Sumptuary Arts Museum González Martí, housed in the Palacio del Marqués de Dos Aguas on Poeta Querol street in Valencia’s historic centre. According to Visit València, the palace is a listed Historic-Artistic Monument, home to Spain’s largest ceramics collection, and its façade is one of the city’s most photographed landmarks.
In addition to its permanent exhibition, the museum runs a cultural programme featuring tours, workshops, and activities for all audiences, including this tile-focused workshop, one of the most emblematic elements of Valencia’s ceramic tradition.
