Three-day summer vacation workshop: Tue–Thu / July 28–30, 2026 / 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Join us on a journey back to the era of these paintings! Together, we’ll dive into the lives of children from centuries past. Who were they, how did they live, and what did they wear? Afterward, we’ll return to the present: You’ll create your own artwork, blending details from the old paintings with your modern-day world. To do this, you’ll experiment with many different drawing tools and transform your sketches into a large-format painting.
Participation fee for all three days: 36 euros
