Art-Expression is an alternative coaching method for using visual arts in favour of acknowledging and expressing thoughts, feelings and personality. It is a different gateway towards exploring and expressing ’self’.

Then you should sign up for a lesson. A lesson costs 30€ per session and 50€ for the combo of two.*

You have to confirm your participation in the lessons latest by 28th of the previous month.

>> Are you already familiar with drawing and just want to enjoy having a live model to practice? You feel that you do not need training?

No problem! In that case, you should get yourself an entrance ticket.
Entrance tickets are donation based starting from 10€ per session.

- Please note that you can not replace sessions that you sign up for. This means if you miss a session there will be no refund.

- Basic materials are available for purchase in the location.
