This year, being the 10th anniversary, we are happy to announce that this important event in our calendar is being held at the Italian Cultural Institute in Valletta.
Purpose of this organisation, headed by the Marquis Nicholas de Piro and coordinated by Margaret Farrugia, is to encourage all lace workers on both islands to continue producing lace which is of the highest standard, thus the competition with awards.
