The Fondazione Cologni delle Arti e dei Mestieri (Cologni Foundation for the Arts and Crafts) is a private non-profit institution, founded in Milan in 1995 by Franco Cologni, its president.

The purpose of the foundation is to promote different fields of arts and crafts. Through cultural and training initiatives the foundation has been organising meetings and events and developed international research targeting a new generation of craftsman/artists.

The Foundation has published several articles about the arts and craft and presented in October this year an important research about the excellence of artistic craftsmanship in the countries of the European Union.
