Workshop-description:

Create your very own work of art out of wood! In this versatile workshop, you’ll use woodworking tools such as a jigsaw, drill, sander, and carving tools to craft a unique sculpture. You’ll combine wood with exciting materials like metal, feathers, plastic, or glass—resulting in a one-of-a-kind work of art.

The workshop emphasizes the conscious and safe use of tools as well as the creative combination of a wide variety of materials. Whether it’s a free-form piece, a figurative representation, a design object, or a special everyday item: you’ll receive expert guidance so that your idea takes shape professionally and expressively.

This workshop is for anyone who enjoys experimenting, discovering new things in a playful way, and expanding their craftsmanship—whether you’re just starting out or already confident working with materials and tools. Unleash your creativity and let wood and other materials become your means of expression!

Woodworking tools such as a jigsaw, sander (or angle grinder with a sanding disc)
Drill
Cordless screwdriver, ... or hand tools (hammer, carving knife, rasp...)
