Workshops & Courses

The Kunsthalle Mainz wants to give as many people as possible access to contemporary art. The entire exhibition is accessible without steps and we are strive to make all events as barrier-free as possible.

Many offers are also specifically aimed at people with disabilities. If you need assistance, please let us know.

You can find more information about barrier-free access to the Kunsthalle here.

We look forward to your visit!

Every Thursday the Open Workshop invites you to join in different materials for building, painting and drawing. The Open Workshop is closed on public holidays and vacations. Only children with prior registration can participate.

The Open Workshop is supported by Künste Öffnen Welten from the Bundesvereinigung Kulturelle Kinder- und Jugendbildung and is aimed at children who are growing up in a risky situation. In the Künste Öffnen Welten program, cultural, youth and educational institutions are supported in jointly implementing projects for children and young people in which they can discover the arts, culture, games and media. This strengthens their educational and participation opportunities. There will be no Open Workshop during vacations.

Would you like to get creative with your hands and make your own works of art out of clay? In the ceramics workshop at the Kunsthalle Mainz, you’ll explore the many possibilities of this material and develop your own ideas step by step.

Over four Saturday mornings, we’ll shape, mold, and decorate bowls, figurines, vessels, and imaginative objects. We’ll draw inspiration from works of art, exhibitions, and exciting themes. From the first sketch to the finished ceramic piece, we’ll guide you through the creative process and explore various clay-working techniques together.

The workshop offers a space to try things out, experiment, and create. No prior experience is required.
