Craftive – Discover the Living Heritage of Kahramanmaraş
Welcome to Craftive, where the rich cultural soul of Kahramanmaraş comes alive through craft, creativity, and community. Nestled in the heart of the city, Craftive is not just a building—it is an experience. Here, visitors don’t just observe local culture; they become part of it.
Step into our vibrant courtyards and hear the rhythmic sounds of chisels on wood, copper being hammered into shape, and looms weaving intricate patterns. Craftive celebrates the timeless traditions of woodcarving, coppersmithing, and textile-making, turning them into living experiences for everyone who walks through our doors.
This is where tradition meets tourism. Through hands-on workshops, open studios, and live exhibitions, tourists are invited to create their own souvenirs—not just buy them.

But Craftive is more than just craft—it’s a story of community, creativity, and culture. It empowers local artisans, supports sustainable tourism, and builds bridges between generations and cultures. As a cultural hub, it promotes the city not only as a destination, but as a source of inspiration and authenticity.
Come for the crafts. Stay for the culture. Leave with a story only Kahramanmaraş can offer.
