The area's typical artistic handicrafts include woodworking, basket weaving and broom blanket weaving. In Bova, one can visit the 'Laboratorio Antica Bova', run by an association that deals with the artistic working of glass, where art and tradition are intertwined, and the stylistic themes of the Grecanica Area resurface in a modern guise in the objects made, and one can visit the 'Antiche tradizioni bovesi' association that makes bergamot soaps, and objects linked to Greek Calabrian traditions. Both are located near Piazza Roma, right in the historic centre of Bova.
