Course description

Make a raised wooden artwork

A workshop to learn some basics of woodworking: using a miter box and a Japanese saw, sanding, gluing, and cutting pieces with an electric scroll saw for older children.

Content and objectives:

During this 1.5-hour workshop, you can, on your own or accompanied by an adult:

  • Customize the background of your frame (painting), approximately 15 × 20 cm in size (using workshop offcuts: plywood, MDF, etc. of small thickness)
  • Make the frame of your artwork by cutting and gluing solid wood strips
  • Create a scene using wooden pieces that will be glued in relief onto the background

Please note:

These creative workshops aim to promote children’s manual skills, imagination, and environmental awareness by using recyclable materials in an upcycling approach.

Guided by Christel Rio, children will be able to create and make decorative objects, games, and more during workshops specifically designed for them, in complete safety, using suitable materials and tools.

Children’s workshops are generally offered every other Wednesday and during part of the school holidays.

It is possible to arrange other days and time slots, or to privatize a workshop for a group of children.

Feel free to contact us.
