Arts and Crafts Trail 2025: Île Saint-Louis in celebration

Under the foliage of theSaint-Louis Island, the Art and Crafts Trail returns for a second edition, transforming the heart of the Marais into a living gallery from 16 to 18 may 2025, on the occasion of the European Days of Crafts.

While strolling through this island on the edge of the Marais, Parisians and the curious will discover the wealth of artisanal know-how in 11 addresses that give pride of place to art and craftsmanship.

In this strip of land lying on the Seine, both very close and a little out of time, each door crossed is a promise of an encounter: we witness the birth of a jewel at the Atelier Nour Mira, we marvel at the precision of a gesture.

The 2025 Art and Crafts Trail is not just a rendez-vous of aesthetes: it's an invitation to slow down, to look, to understand what's going on behind each object. This event is not to be missed for anyone who wants to experience the artisanal soul of Paris: we interact with those who bring this region to life.

Starting with Fabienne, who is welcoming Elvira Darizhapova and her jewelry to the Kara Gallery, as well as ceramists Julie Cornette and Javier Bacigalupo, for the occasion. And Jérôme Blin, whose fashion house offers unique clothing made on the Île Saint-Louis, will be present at the Kara Gallery and the Le 33 Mai Gallery.

Other must-sees: Bamyam and its sublime pieces of oriental craftsmanship (fashion, accessories, objects, etc.), Dreamlight, the shop of the creator of string, glove or ventriloquist puppets, the Ai Gallery where the works of the artist Bernard de Wolff are shown, the Carré d'Artistes Gallery, the Star Gallery, the Art and Matter Gallery which is currently exhibiting Sylvie Schepens, and finally the The Kissing Gallery, whose delicate and inspiring selection we love.

The event is part of a larger movement: that of a city celebrating its local creators and defending a responsible, authentic approach, which runs counter to standardized production.
