Biodiversity Play & Clay Workshop
🕓 1 hr - 2 hours 🪙 From €330 🏠 Client venue
Workshop Description
Step into the wild and become a nature artist for the day! 🌿✨ In this hands-on family workshop, we’ll discover the amazing world of biodiversity through touch, creativity, and outdoor exploration. After a fun interactive introduction to the plants, animals, and tiny creatures that make nature so special, we’ll head outside on a mini nature adventure to collect leaves, twigs, seeds, and other natural treasures. Using our discoveries, everyone will create their own unique nature-inspired sculpture to take home. Perfect for curious minds and creative hands of all ages, from preschool explorers to grandparents. Children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Learning Outcomes: • Explore biodiversity through sensory learning. • Learn to use clay and make your own biodiversity inspired sculpture. At our workshops, we offer a range of duration and delivery options to suit your needs, each option offers unique advantages. For instance, a 60-minute in-person workshop provides a solid foundation and allows time for shorter period of creativity. However, opting for a longer, 2-hour workshop enables deeper learning, more experimentation & mindfulness and allows us to accomplish more together. Choosing the extended option not only enriches your learning experience but also ensures we can delve into more advanced topics and incorporate more interactive activities, resulting in greater value. So, for a more comprehensive and in-depth session, we encourage you to consider the longer duration options. Prices: • €330 for a 60 mins In-person Workshop including materials • €360 for a 1 hr 30 mins In-person Workshop including materials • €400 for a 2 hr In-person Workshop including materials In-person capacity: We can facilitate a group of maximum of 20 participants per workshop but recommend smaller groups for increased interactivity and more one-on-one time.
