THE PLACE

THE TEAM

MANIFESTO

Novetus aims to support anyone wishing to learn or improve their knowledge and craft skills by offering practical training opportunities, participation in field works around the world, and access to a specialized library and research centre.

Craftsmanship means reinforcing human beings to regain a central place among the most advanced technologies, by realising their own inner potential (even with the simplest tools) and by rediscovering the capacity of their hands and bodies to create and constantly surpass themselves.

All Novetus activities will benefit from the foundation's interdisciplinarity approach to the preservation of Bulgaria’s aspects of historical and cultural heritage.
Novetus will also aim to create a centre of activity in a less active region of Bulgaria through its promotion of arts and crafts.

The Novetus team features a wide range of specialists capable of meeting all its goals. Interdisciplinarity is an intangible value of the foundation, and the diverse professional profiles of its founders is a testimony to that.

The former school of the village of Relyovo, located 50 km from the capital of Bulgaria, will be the heart of Novetus. Reviving its spirit and restoring its function (as well as its walls and roof) is our organisation's main purpose. Novetus is funding the ongoing renovation of the building, and the school will be the headquarters of our activities.

This space is a modern bottega where curious, passionate and talented young artists will find the necessary mentorship, concise knowledge and full technological and logistic support on their journey to mastery and artistic singularity.
