Founded in 2009, Riera Alta owes its name to a street in Barcelona where owner Cláudia Andrade took the first steps in handicrafts. Thus, you can expect from this space many activities. From the outset it offers various training activities that include not only sewing, but also workshops for jewelry, carton making, fimo, felt, origami, among others.
