MENIA RESTORATION AND HERITAGE
In the workshop Menia we carry out courses and workshops for adults and children.
The adult courses are specialised in conservation, restoration and decorative learning techniques applied to the recycling of furniture and objects. They are attendance courses and the duration of the course have two options:
RESTORATION WORKSHOP AND RECYCLING: CITY OF FUENGIROLA
This course is long lasting, starts in September and ends in June. It is taught in the Edificio Siglo XXI, it is a municipal workshop of the Department of Culture of the City of Fuengirola. Classes are Tuesdays and Thursdays in the morning and afternoon.
In class, students work on a real work, which can be a piece of furniture, a painting, a sculpture or antiquity.
In it you will learn basic restoration techniques, traditional techniques for decorative finishes, upholstery, reinstatements and additions, and decorative techniques to modernize those furniture that have become outdated but we have great sentimental value.
All techniques and methods are carried out in a course and a place very exclusive taught by two teachers with degrees in Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Property.
