***
The Austrian Textile Society TKF enjoys a 30 year long co-operation with ICOC.
Throughout this period of time we organised various exhibitions and symposia on
carpets and textiles. This expertise and our close contact with local museums and local collections enabled us to put together a programme fit to satisfy even the seasoned connaisseur.
Naturally, the format of an ICOC Tour is different to the ICOC as such - we move
from location to location accompanied by lectures. We therefore created
a package (like a "set menu") including transportation, hotels, etc.
This is to ensure that all participants will be able to enjoy the tour in the most comfortable and inspiring manner.
