Workshops in Craft Camp

In 2024 camp we are offering 1-day and 2-day workshops for both beginners and advanced-level participants. You can participate in 3 workshops during the camp. There will be around 7-8 simultaneous workshops taking place each day.

Workshops suitable for beginners are marked with one star (*). This means that students do not need to have (or cannot have, due to the rarity of the craft skill) previous experience in the craft. Workshops suitable for intermediate and advanced participants are marked with two stars (**). Advanced participants are expected and recommended to have previous experience in the craft. 

In some of the workshops, the materials are considerably more high-priced and therefore create inequality between different workshop preferences. The basic cost of workshop materials is included in the general participation fee for each participant. The extra material cost for the following 4 workshops will be added to the invoice:

  • 2-day long 'Shawl with Mulgi Embroidery' (20€ will be added to the invoice)
  • 1-day long 'Brooch with Punched Pattern' (35€ will be added to the invoice if you wish to make the brooch out of silver) 
  • 1-day long 'Silver Earrings Inspired by Ethnographic Jewellery' (35€ will be added to the invoice)

You can see the courses offered in the 2024 camp below. The courses which did not meet the critical number of participants were removed from the list in the beginning of March. The final timetable will be confirmed with each participant via email.
