Arts & Crafts Workshops
All workshops are designed to give participants a sense of wellbeing while involved in a creative activity, which can help boosting self-confidence and regulate difficult feelings. We emphasize the importance of the creative process rather than the expectance of a 'perfect' outcome.
There is no need for previous experience or expertise in art.
The Arts & Crafts workshops are designed to be as environmentally friendly as possible. It is a way to incorporate and value the materials we constantly throw away but could be used for other purposes and avoid more environmental pollution. The materials can be broken crockery and tiles, flowerpots, fabrics, glass jars, metal scrap, cardboard as well as natural materials such as clay pebbles, shells, dry flowers, leaves or wood.
The different workshops are designed to suit adults, children and special needs.
Maximum of eight participants per group.
All materials provided.
