Open Studio
Date: On the 1st Sunday of each month, from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Location: Hauptbau
Participation free of charge
First explore the Museum yourself and then head for the studio – or the other way round? Every first Sunday of the month, our studio is open to anyone who before or after touring the Museum wishes to be creative, explore things, or experiment. The studio is run by two art educationalists who are at hand with support and advice and the one or other surprise.

Happy New Year!
At the start of the year, we reflect on our New Year's resolutions. What are we leaving behind in the old year? What do we want to continue investing in? We visualize our wishes for 2026 with words, drawings, and collages.

Spring is in the air, and after their long flight over seas, deserts, and mountains, the birds are returning full of stories. We follow their tracks, invent bird creatures, build nests, and send our thoughts on journeys.
