IT’S TIME TO CELEBRATE!

Celebrate the art that has been created at Hexenwasser so far, the art that is constantly being created and continues to grow through each guest: our shared living and creative organism, the Hexenwasser work of art! This year it will be concrete: your and our encounter with the mountain, forest and meadows, witches and water will take shape one time, colour another time, become
sometimes solid, sometimes wafer-thin, sometimes rock-hard, sometimes hot, sometimes just a patient seed. In this context, let’s grasp and tackle together in the witches’ water creative workshop. Either as ‘artisans’ or as marvellers at the regional artists and craftspeople who are happy to let you look over their shoulders as they create at Hexenwasser.

Creative dates:

• 07.-30.06. CRAFT & TRADITION WEEKS
• 07/08, 14/15, 28/29/06 CRAFT MARKET
• 15.-29.09. ALMHERSTWOCHEN
• 13.-31.10. PUMPKIN WEEKS IN THE WITCH’S WATER

Get creative together with our team

In the witches’ studio in the Hexerei, you can let your imagination run wild while drawing. At the yolk felting workshop in the Simonalm, old craftsmanship, chicken science and creativity come together to create a complete work of art and in the Blue Wonder, every visitor can create a soap bubble artwork to take home with them in the water workshop. Rolling beeswax candles, modelling clay or baking bread are also among the valuable opportunities to lend a hand. All activities are about humour, mysticism or tradition and not about perfection or evaluation. The aim is to take a little piece of witch water or witchcraft knowledge home with you.

Nature is the greatest artist on our Hexenwasser stage. There are so many phenomena and treasures to discover if you take the time to look. The play of light and shadow, the reflection of the sky in clear water, the colourfulness of our flower meadows or the filigree structure of a leaf vein. Art is everywhere. The many creative minds* who have designed and shaped Hexenwasser also use nature as their greatest source of inspiration.
