The workshop table

Hands, tools, tea, then the house.

The sessions are built for people who want to touch the material, ask questions and enjoy the rhythm of the house. You can keep the activity short, or stay after for tea, dinner or a private group plan.

Plan the visit

One house, several ways to gather.

Tell us who is coming and we will shape the pace around the group: quick cultural stop, family activity, school visit, agency group or an evening that continues with food.

Travelers and families

Short, friendly sessions with enough context to feel the craft without making the day too heavy.

Schools

Hands-on learning with clear materials, simple flow and space for teachers to manage the group.

Groups and agencies

Private timing, combined activities and optional food so the workshop becomes a complete visit.

Events in the house

Turn the workshop into a private gathering.

For birthdays, family meals, agency visits, cultural evenings or school celebrations, the same Medina house can hold the craft table, rooftop tea, dinner and music in one flow.
