Discover Your Creativity: An Intuitive Art Workshop in Dublin

The Lab

Discover Your Intuitive Creativity is a beginner-friendly creative workshop exploring intuitive crafting with repurposed jewellery and the Gestaltete Interaktion method. Designed for anyone who feels disconnected from their creativity—or who believes they're "not creative"—the workshop offers a relaxed and playful space to experiment with colours, shapes, and textures without the pressure to create something perfect. Participants will transform old jewellery and found materials into a unique decorative piece while exploring their own aesthetic instincts and creative expression.

It brings together communities, families, organisations, cultural institutions, academics and enthusiasts, to build awareness about the value of heritage and support its conservation. The theme for National Heritage Week 2026 is "Heritage at Risk". This year's theme invites us to reflect on what heritage is at risk — and how we can respond with care, creativity, and collective responsibility.
