ABC-HOUSE OPEN WORKSHOP FOR YOUNGSTERS 15th OF APRIL 2026

For young people ages 12 to 16
The spring days are making the ice melt and the rivers flow faster. The sun invites us to go outside and lets us dream of adventures on the water.
During this open workshop, we’ll learn about Inuit construction techniques and build a real kayak out of wood, or sew one out of paper.
Hungry after your adventurous journey? Time for a homemade pizza, straight from the oven!

ABC-HOUSE ERFGOEDDAG HAHA HUMOR 26th OF APRIL 2026

Family workshop HAHA HUMOR!
Let’s laugh, because laughing makes you laugh, and laughing is good for you!
Whether it’s a subtle smile or a fit of laughter that gives you a stomach ache, tears of laughter, bursts of laughter, or roaring laughter, giggling, chuckling, or laughing into your fist. A grinning, booming laugh or a nervous laugh… the emotion is written all over your face.
But to your brain, it doesn’t matter whether you’re rolling on the floor laughing or just smiling a little… the endorphins are released either way and make you happy.
Surprise yourself by lengthening your nose or turning your portrait into a caricature, adding giant eyes, or looking cross-eyed. Hats, masks, book covers, or tights can help us pull silly faces and make others laugh.

PRACTICAL
Sunday 26/04/2026
From 10am to 12.30pm or from 1.30pm to 4pm
Please let us know which session you would like to participate in at mail@abc-web.be
