CRAFTS are in danger of extinction, but as long as there is one person willing to pass on her or his knowledge, alongside another interested in receiving them, crafts will SURVIVE.
The figures of the Master and the Apprentice are still alive in Zurjole. Either for 2 hours a week or 4 hours a day, the people who come to Zurjole continue to learn trades with the aim of “know how” or with the idea of making a living from it.
After a few years of growth as an Academy, we reached our adolescence with things very clear, we are here to transmit knowledge, to make people who want to learn have the possibility to do so, either because they find the teacher they were looking for or because they give with a site that provides the means for that transmission to occur.
Learning takes place through experience and this is how we also receive it. Once the knowledge of the wisest has been collected, we are able to synthesize it and give it back to the world.
Our goal is to change the world and our initiatives, whatever the field, this is what they pursue.
