Souvenir der Leere – Family Workshop

This event is available in
German
This family workshop focuses on one of the most humble souvenirs of all: the refrigerator magnet. Small, inexpensive, and conveniently sized for carry-on luggage, it promises to preserve memories. Yet magnets are, above all, one thing: consumer goods that sneak into our homes—and into our wallets—without us even noticing.

Together, we’ll take a closer look at these little mementoes and design our own magnets, somewhere between souvenir kitsch and personal memories.

The workshop is open to families with children and anyone else who’s interested.

Free coming and going.
