Christmas is coming — and there’s no better way to embrace the magic of the season than by creating something truly personal and handmade!
Join us at Laura I. Art Gallery for an enchanting festive experience: a series of creative bauble-making workshops where art, tradition, and holiday joy come together. Guided by Laura Iosifescu — acclaimed, multi-award-winning artist and director of Laura I. Art Gallery — this is a rare opportunity to step inside the world of her innovative, avant-garde practice and be part of one of her most magical, creative sessions.
🎨 What to expect:
- Each two-hour workshop focuses on creating one unique Christmas bauble, hand-painted and designed by you.
- At the end of the session, your bauble will be presented in a transparent, gift-ready box — perfect for giving straight to someone special or adding to your own festive décor.
- Every workshop also includes a glass of bubbly champagne to toast the season and celebrate your creativity.
💡 Make more if you wish:
- The standard ticket price includes one bauble, all materials, the gift box, and your glass of champagne.
- If you’re feeling inspired, you’ll also have the option to purchase and decorate additional baubles and boxes on the day — perfect for building your own bespoke collection or creating personalised gifts for family and friends.
🍾 A festive twist – a moment just for you:
This workshop is not only about creating beautiful decorations — it’s about creating space for yourself. Alongside the creative process, you’ll be invited to indulge in a glass of champagne and savour the comforting aromas of Christmas spices, allowing you to pause, unwind, and reconnect with your inner self. Each session is designed as a mindful, festive ritual — a weekly moment to slow down, reflect, and say, “I deserve this time. I respect myself.”
✨ A truly unique opportunity:
This is a rare chance to work directly with Laura Iosifescu, whose visionary and playful artistic approach blends innovation with festive creativity.
