Creating Moments of Light Together: Creative Offer in Bielefeld

As the days get shorter outside, this creative offer provides a warm sign: In the event We Illuminate the Darkness, atmospheric light jars will be created at the Old Weigh House in Bielefeld-Mitte. Children, teenagers, and adults are invited to design their own small light objects using gemstone glass and beads while engaging in conversation with one another.
