Halas Lace

Halas Lace

By the end of the 1980s, the state of Halas Lace was critical. After the 1989 political reforms, Kiskunhalas established the Halas Lace Foundation (1992), which, like previous lace-supporting organizations, considered its main purposes to be the resurrection of Halas Lace and its popularization both in Hungary and abroad. Amongst the activities of the Foundation so far has been the erection of a statue to Mária Markovits and Árpád Dékáni, the stocktaking of the design and lace collections and the documents of the Lace House and the commisioning of this memorial publication on Halas Lace.
