About
WORKSHOPS
BRUSSELS
These workshops are organized on the initiative of contemporary jewellery artist, Nelly Van Oost. She shares the connections that she established during her studies abroad and throughout her career as an artist.
Her desire is to create "creative bubbles" where the students of the workshops will feel welcome and free to create in all serenity. The workshops are an opportunity to meet people from the creative community in Belgium and Europe. They will thus be able to generate new contacts and exciting new projects.
Nelly Van Oost is in charge of all the organization as well as meals. These are always convivial moments during which homemade dishes are served.
Since 2018
This structure exists since 2018, starting with workshops with the artist Daniela Malev. The participants immediately wanted to do more workshops with other teachers. In the beginning, word of mouth was one of the elements that made "Workshops Brussels" known, and one of its particularities is that the public is a mix of participants from all over Belgium (Wallonia, Brussels and Flanders) but also from abroad (France, the Netherlands, Thailand or New Zealand). These heterogeneous groups do not only learn techniques, there are meetings that lead to projects, etc... Nelly Van Oost is very keen on this aspect of these workshops.

Meals
The meals are cooked with love and are always a great success. The pot'je vlees / fries is a must (vegetarian option also available). The choukchouka was introduced to the menu last time, it will certainly return! The meal is a convivial moment where everyone can get to know each other.
A microwave is also available to everyone.
