Enjoying time off in the countryside village: suggestions for relaxation

In the vibrant city of Düsseldorf, children aged 9 to 14 have the opportunity to unleash their creativity during the summer vacation. The Kunsthalle Düsseldorf is hosting a two-day workshop named "Stone upon Stone," where participants can design and build their own Lego brick garden or structure, inspired by the works of artist Megan Rooney.

This unique workshop, led by artist Aran Hudson, draws inspiration from life and surroundings, particularly from Schloss Benrath, which serves as a source of inspiration for the creations. The creations can range from intricate gardens with paths, plants, and garden architecture, to impressive buildings.

The workshop begins with a discovery tour through an exhibition, followed by observations recorded in a sketch-like manner. Using these observations, the children shape their experiences into sculptures made of modeling clay or paper mache. Once completed, there is a small presentation for parents to see their children's work.

Registration for the course can be done under 0211-8921903 or by emailing [email protected].

Aran Hudson, known for contributing to cultural projects involving children and Lego bricks, works with the children in the course. The courses have different thematic focuses, making each workshop a unique and engaging experience for the children.
