Through each stage, folk knowledge and craft skills were naturally conveyed, helping the public better understand the value of the traditional crafts of the Xơ Đăng people, passed down through generations.

At the same time, it creates conditions for artisans to practice, introduce, and spread the value of the heritage to a wide audience of people, tourists, students, and researchers.

The event, which took place over three days from December 19th to 21st, attracted a large number of students, tourists, and local residents who came to visit and experience it.
