The Centre of Ethnic Culture and Traditional Crafts of Šiauliai District Municipality is located in the Kuršėnai Manor Servants’ Quarters. In 2012, the premises were renovated. The premises of the servants’ quarters are now used for educational activities in ceramics, wool spinning, ribbon weaving, egg dyeing, and making straw decorations for the Christmas tree. The centre has permanent exhibitions of works and ethnographic exhibitions of folk art of Šiauliai region. In the educational activity “Clay Master Workshop”, participants will create their own clay items, learn Rekčiai Hillfort about clay making, its properties, use, and pottery firing processes. While making their own clay items, they will be able to imagine how the ancestors used to throw white crockery.
