Creative summer: workshops for children in Potsdam shine!
Things will be particularly creative in Cologne this summer! The Young VHS at the Potsdam Adult Education Center has launched a colorful program with over 40 workshops and courses for children and young people. The aim is to inspire young artists and promote their creative talents. Particular highlights are the workshops that take place in the picturesque palaces of Sanssouci Park and deal with topics such as jewelry design and the exotic fashions of the Baroque period. Annette Paul, an experienced artist, leads the workshop “The Big Sparkle – Your Jewelry Design in Sanssouci,” in which participants can make their own jewelry. There is also a three-day course that focuses on artistic development and focuses on the special features of the picture gallery.

But that's not enough! During the summer holidays, participants can also capture exciting impressions of the city on camera in the photo club.

A nationwide focus on creativity
Promoting the creative development of children and young people does not only take place in Cologne, but is a nationwide concern. The Education Foundation supports projects that ensure access to art and culture for all young people, regardless of their social or financial situation. This focus on cultural education is an important building block for the personal development of young people and helps to discover and further develop creative talents.

Helpful funding funds are used, among other things, to set up school orchestras, purchase musical instruments and organize art exhibitions and theater performances.

For anyone who wants a creative summer, both Junge VHS and Kinkicolor offer numerous opportunities to try things out. Whether you're photographing, drawing or designing - joy and discovery are at the top of the agenda!
