This group is for anyone curious about exploring creativity through hands-on printmaking and artistic experimentation. In these workshops we work with techniques such as lino printing, wood engraving, and screen printing, while also exploring where ideas come from and how inspiration can be translated into visual form. The sessions combine creative reflection, drawing, and material-based processes, allowing participants to slow down, engage with their hands, and develop their own visual language. No prior experience is needed. The focus is on curiosity, experimentation, and discovering new ways of thinking and creating together. 🎨

Order creativity from the menu. Take a seat, pick an art experience like clay modelling, lino printing or painting, and everything gets served to your table.

Founded by friends Anne and Julia, this is slow creativity in a busy world.
Is a research project exploring the role of care in society. The name is inspired by the Old English meaning of the word gossip, which was not about idle chatter but referred to the community of people who supported a new mother. Inspired by this idea, the project looks at how care can become the foundation for stronger communities today, and examines the social norms, structures, and habits that shape our ability to connect and support one another. Through workshops, conversation, and hands-on practices, it investigates how shared making and reflection can help rebuild meaningful connections.

Amsterdam DIY Club started with a feeling most of us know too well — too many screens, too little making. So we carved out a little corner of Amsterdam where you can put your phone down, pick up some beads, and remember how good it feels to create something with your hands.
