Exhibition: Living with Crystals
People have been connected to stone since time immemorial, as our ancestors knew how to use the properties of minerals and crystals. They started fires with them, used them to make tools, built homes out of them, and soon realized that stone is also beautiful. The exhibition Living with Crystals offers a comprehensive overview of the mineral kingdom. Minerals and crystals fascinate us with their variety of shapes and colors and evoke many emotions in us.
Workshop: handmade jewelry from precious metals
Combining precious metals with other materials, where limits are exceeded, is a distinctive sign of the brand Unique jewelry Amazing. We will be able to follow the process of hand-made jewelry.
Creative mosaic workshop - The Dragon awakens from the stones
Participants will get to know the basics of mosaics and discover techniques and materials that are suitable for group creative work on mosaics. From individual square panels, which will be made by individuals or a small group of creators, we will assemble a larger image of the Dragon.
