Creative Minds 2.0

Kreative Woche © Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan

The Creative Workshop-Week in the Library

21.08 - 25.08.2023

What do we actually mean when we talk about creativity? Being creative means creating something new that is original or useful. The pleasure of the work plays a greater role than the actual product at the end. This is exactly what we intend to do with you in April at our institute. We want to lure your creativity so that you become creative Minds. 

From 21.08 to 25.08.2023 we invite German learners from our partner schools to the CREATIVE MINDS - the Workshop-Week, in our library. Together we want to find our artistic vein and have a lot of fun. Every day we offer an interactive and exciting workshop. From drawing to literature to the art of baking. There is something for everyone.

Our programme

Monday, 21.08
Baking

Germany is certainly famous in particular for the art of baking. German bread, German biscuits and other delicacies are very popular all over the world. But baking is not that difficult. Try it out for yourself and take part in our workshop.

Expert: Michael Schmid (Brown Bread Bakery and Organic Food)


Tuesday, 22.08
Bull-Bull-Bully

This workshop deals with the topic of "bullying" in a playful way. Kamal Pruthi alias Kabuliwala not only reads from his translation of an award-winning children's book, but also playfully reflects on the topic with the participants and dramatises it.
