Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of fragrance layering! In this special workshop, we will learn how to creatively combine different perfumes and fragrance notes to create your own personal signature scent.
After a brief introduction to the basics of fragrance composition and the most important fragrance families, we will get straight down to trying things out: using high-quality molecular fragrances and selected niche fragrances, we will test various layering techniques and experience how new, individual fragrance worlds open up. We will also receive tips on how to build our own fragrance wardrobe and use it specifically for different moods and occasions.
For optimal conditions, we recommend arriving unscented.

In this special workshop, we learn about different fragrance compositions and families and discover how to develop our own fragrance wardrobe. We test which ingredients suit us and how they can be combined with each other.

A Workshop with Helen Adkins
The main focus of the workshop will be the independent production of art in combination with strategies for securing a stable income. Finance and marketing are closely interlinked. Art is more than a mere commodity and is hardly ever produced for the market. Artists need to create their own demand through individuality and visibility, and have to be constant and patient.

About Helen Adkins:
Dr. Helen Adkins is an independent art historian, curator and artist coach in Berlin. She is interested in the creative process and its mediation as well as in the challenges contemporary artists are facing today.

In this Open Studio we will go on a scent journey and get creative together. There is no need to register – just drop by.
Why does a fragrance sometimes remind us of our grandmother, a delicious meal, or a holiday? What happens when we smell something? And how can a scent change the way we feel?
Through playful and artistic techniques, we will explore these questions and dive into the world of fragrances. See you at the Palast Studio!

This workshop is suitable for English and German speaking people.

Still lives are popular motifs in painting. Starting with arranging the objects into a composition, then observing it closely and capturing the scene: This special workshop is suitable for those new to watercolours as well as for those looking to refine their technique.

Surrounded by the artworks in the Kunstpalast, we use the inspiration to create our own fruit arrangements, whilst exploring the beauty of the mundane and the diversity of the shapes and colours of nature. Under the professional guidance of Nima Dibazar, we will start with sketches and build up our creative confidence to paint our own watercolour painting. Enjoy a creative afternoon in a relaxed atmosphere and discover your artistic side.

Nima Dibazar is an architect and watercolour painter who has been recording his own memories of people, places and travels in his sketchbooks. He will introduce you to painting with watercolours and show you how to work free and loose with them.
