Craft Workshop with Tamás Ferencz

This autumn we once again welcome all creative spirits to the workshops of Tamás Ferencz!

Date: 13 September
Time: 12:00
Venue:  Language Lab
25 Place Gudule, 1000 Brussels

This autumn we once again welcome all creative spirits to the workshops of Tamás Ferencz! Join us, relax, and discover two fascinating techniques:

🎴 Card Weaving

Card weaving is like a favorite book: no matter how many times you open it, it always reveals something new. This several-thousand-year-old technique was essential to the nomadic lifestyle: bands woven with it were used to fasten tents or make halters. Today, it lends itself to belts, guitar straps, bag handles, garment decorations, and even jewelry.

👉 Perfect for both beginners and advanced weavers. There is always a new trick to learn!

💎 Bead Weaving

Bead weaving is a delicate and intricate craft that allows you to create bracelets, necklaces, pendants, and earrings. Beyond the basics, we’ll also introduce the peyote technique for those who are interested!

👨‍👩‍👧 A Parent–Child Experience

Both workshops make for a wonderful family activity, though we recommend them from age 12 upwards, as both techniques require patience and concentration 

What do we offer?

👉 a cheerful, creative atmosphere

👉 unique, personalized projects based on your own ideas

👉 a taste of leatherwork while finishing the woven bands

👉 custom-designed looms and all necessary materials provided
