The Passport to Creativity Tour once again left participants wide-eyed and full of excitement about Spanish culture, and more specifically, the tile manufacturing and design industry. Hosted by Tile of Spain USA, the delegation included several members from the architecture and design community, as well as a few select journalists. The week-long adventure to Valencia, Spain, introduced those on the tour to several tile producers, led them through the dazzling tile displays at Cevisama, and guided them on an architectural tour of the historic city. 

Each year, the trip not only provides an opportunity for participants to learn about new product introductions, but it also teaches them about the technical side. Moreover, it is a unique bonding experience where everyone comes away with new friends and a love for the Spanish tile industry. View highlights of the trip here.
