Pecs's Zsolnay Cultural Quarter to Mark Art Nouveau Day with Series of Events
The Zsolnay Cultural Quarter in Pecs will hold a series of events on June 6 to mark World Art Nouveau Day, focusing on eosin glazing, influential women of the era, turn-of-the-century fashion, and the Zsolnay family, the operator, Zsolnay Heritage Management Nonprofit, (ZSOK) said in a statement on Monday.

The events, held ahead of the June 10 anniversary of the deaths of Antoni Gaudi and Odon Lechner, will include exclusive guided tours in period costume, allowing visitors to explore the architectural treasures of the quarter and relive the golden age of the Zsolnay factory.

Highlights will include insights into the eosin technique and the legacies of figures such as Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Jozsef Rippl-Ronai and Endre Ady.

Workshops for families and creative visitors will include sessions on macrame jewellery-making and painting Art Nouveau-style porcelain postcards.

Further details of the June 6 programme are available at www.zsolnaynegyed.hu.
