MAKit! Workshop for Adults
Flowers to Wear: Head
with the artist Alma Bektas
MORE INFO AND TICKETS HERE
Under the theme “Flowers to Wear,” workshop participants, under the artistic direction of Alma Bektas, design wearable flower pieces at various dates. Each of the three workshops focuses on a different body part, for which a piece is produced—from rings to necklaces to headpieces. Fresh and artificial flowers, along with various materials, are combined to create what are known as “wearables,” including accessories, jewelry, or small items of clothing. On the opening day, wearables for the hand are created. The workshop takes place in the park of Geymüllerschlössel in good weather and is relocated to MAK on Stubenring in case of rain. Participants will be informed of the location three days before each respective date via email.
