In the footsteps of a collector

Creative workshop and activities at the Ring Oven

At the museum, there is a children’s workshop with the resident artist from 11.00–14.00.

At Nivaagaard Brickworks Ring Oven, activities take place from 11.00–15.00. The forge will be fired up, giving children and playful adults the chance to experience the historic setting. At 13.15, there is a guided tour for older children and adults. Practical clothing that can get dirty is recommended.

From the museum, visitors can walk through the park to the Ring Oven, a distance of approximately 600 metres. The Ring Oven is located at Teglværksvej 23, Nivå. No registration is required for the activities.

Paint like Christine Swane

How can plants, coloured glass and light brushstrokes become a painting? In this family workshop, children and adults can create their own compositions inspired by Christine Swane’s colourful motifs and greenhouse.

  • Friday 16 October, 11.00–14.00
  • Location: Nivaagaards Malerisamling

Explore colours, shapes and materials

Participants will work with oil pastels, kraft paper and acrylic paint, exploring how light colours, shapes and simple materials can create different moods. Artist Marina Pagh will guide the workshop, which is suitable for both children and adults.
