The objective of the project is to research and preserve traditional skills of Dvina/Daugava valley territory inhabitants and transfer them for the next generation through special museum educational programs, workshops, exhibitions and innovative educational forms based on live communication with craftsman, such as open-air ethnographical camps, "Craftsman University" and "Craftsman town". Project foresees free master classes for public, opportunity to learn directly from craftsman their skills and local museum competitiveness and attractiveness improvement. Nowadays people forget old traditional crafts and skills. The number of old generation craftsman decreasing year by year, traditional crafts and non - material heritage fading away with them. People, especially youth, haven`t opportunity to try traditional skills, for example, weaving baskets, weaving with looms and from straw, handicraft or pottery. Local museums became the only place where people can get information about old crafts, but museum exhibitions are not attractive to public.
