ART ACADEMY

Would you like to try to make art the way contemporary artists and street artists do it? Would you like to learn their work and techniques? Are you looking for new creative approaches? These art workshops will be inspired by techniques of modern art, public art and DIY culture.

Student Academies are leisure activities for high school students, free of charge. Under the slogan "Do what you enjoy", since 2010 they offer students art workshops, which are held in attractive locations under the leadership of interesting personalities from the cultural scene. Since autumn 2012, the Art Academy is held biweekly at the MeetFactory.
