Drawing and paintingon wood and building . You can build your own lamp and/or peace rattle, in which you incorporate found and decorated objects. We work with painter's tape, glue and thin latern paper. Who knows, we might build together a big light sculpture in the forest. So the week is also very suitable for families.
