The Village of Tunes in Fayoum: An Artistic and Cultural Center

In the heart of the Fayoum oasis, the village of Tunes is a place where art and tradition meet. Pottery plays an essential role here, with workshops that attract artisans and artists from all over the world.

Thirty years ago, Evelyne Porret, a Swiss potter, founded a school to pass on her know-how to the village's youth. Although the school remains a central element, many independent workshops exist in Tunes, each creating unique pieces. The potters, former students or independent artisans, produce works that combine tradition and innovation, appreciated both locally and internationally by collectors.

Today, Tunes is a place where craftsmanship continues, each creation being the fruit of ancestral know-how enriched by the creativity of the artisans, and telling the history of the village.
