This special holiday program is perfect for children who love being creative and want to try out different techniques. Inspired by the "All You Can Eat" principle, you can create as much as you like within your booked time. What can you create? During the summer holidays, you'll have a wide range of creative activities to choose from. You can focus on one technique or try several. Manga Drawing (1.5 hrs) \*starts at 1:00 pm\* Learn step-by-step how to draw manga characters. You'll learn the basics of manga faces, eyes, and proportions, and you can create your own character. Pottery (2 hrs) Shape a small bowl, mini vase, or figurine with your hands! I'll show you how! Acrylic Painting (2 hrs) Paint your own picture with acrylic paints on canvas. Whether it's cute animals, food illustrations, or summer scenes – let your imagination run wild! Coloring (0.5 hrs) Perfect for relaxing between other projects. Choose a template or create your own design and experiment with colors. Decoding (0.5 - 1 hr) In this popular technique, you decorate objects with a creamy paste and cute decorative elements. For example, cases, mirrors, or small boxes. The finished piece needs to dry overnight in the studio and can be picked up the next day. (max 3) Punch Needle (1 - 2 hr) Using yarn and a special needle, you create textured patterns and small textile artworks. This technique is easy to learn and especially fun. Crochet Tote Bag (1 hr) Using simple crochet techniques, you can make a small bag or accessory from yarn. Design Jewelry & Keychains (0.5 - 1 hr) Create your own bracelets, pendants, or small gifts. Hand Lettering & Greeting Card Design (1 - 1.5 hr) Learn beautiful lettering and design personalized cards – perfect for birthdays or short messages. Nail Design (1 hr) You can also get creative with your nails. For hygiene reasons, please bring your own nail file and nail polish. Just like with "All You Can Eat," there's only one important rule at All You Can Create: 👉 You must complete your project. If a project appears incomplete, an additional fee of 10 CHF will be charged. This rule helps ensure that the creative space is used fairly for everyone and motivates participants to consciously complete their projects.

We live in an age of unprecedented progress. Advances in medicine, technology, education, and human rights have given us opportunities and freedoms that previous generations could not even imagine. Yet, despite these achievements, many of us feel increasingly anxious, restless, exhausted, and overwhelmed. How can a society that has gained so much leave so many feeling depleted and always lonhing for more? The philosopher Byung-Chul Han argues that this is not a contradiction, but a defining **feature** of our time. In his book *The Burnout Society*, he suggests that the crisis of modern life stems not from **oppression**, prohibition, or negativity, but from an **excess of positivity**—the constant pressure to achieve, optimize, perform, and become more. Han captures this paradox in one of his most famous observations: *"The complaint of the depressive individual, 'Nothing is possible,' can only occur in a society that thinks, 'Nothing is impossible.'"* In a world where limitless possibility has become an expectation, failure, exhaustion, and inadequacy are increasingly experienced as personal shortcomings rather than social problems. Today, we will explore Han's diagnosis of the modern condition, why burnout has become so widespread, and what his philosophy reveals about a possible way out. **Preparation:** You can get a good introduction of the topic by watchin one of the below videos: [Why We're All Burning Out: Byung-Chul](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlRlWuEyt8E) [Achievment Society - Byung-Chul Han | Philosophize This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm56nQ31kBk) **For Philosophical Minds Zurich theme events in general:** At our theme events, we begin with a brief topic introduction, followed by engaging discussions in small groups. It’s all about conversation, not just listening. Also, please note, we keep the atmosphere relaxed and informal—**there’s** **no pressure to speak in front of anyone**. **Important:** When you register for the event, please commit to it and don't be a NO SHOW. Presumably, when the ancient philosophers decided to go to an event, they kept to it.
 We look forward to seeing you. **Payment:** You can pay at the venue (Twint/Revolut/Cash). Thus, if you want to register at Meetup just click attend - no more needed ;). We look forward to seeing you.

In this creative workshop for children and teenagers, we'll create an adorable kawaii octopus together using acrylic paints on canvas. Whether you choose big glittery eyes, funny expressions, or vibrant colors – the possibilities are endless! The workshop lasts approximately two hours and is suitable for beginners as well as creative children with some experience. Step by step, I'll show you how to build your octopus, combine colors, and achieve a fantastic result using simple techniques. It's not about perfection, but above all about fun, creativity, and being proud of your own artwork 😊 All materials will be provided. So you don't need to bring anything except a good mood and a desire to paint! At the end, everyone takes their own painting home. Important note: We'll be working with acrylic paint. Unfortunately, this cannot be washed out of clothing. Please wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. Aprons will be provided, but I still recommend wearing older clothes just in case. The workshop offers a relaxed and creative atmosphere where children and teenagers can try out new techniques, be creative, and spend a wonderful afternoon together. Whether alone, with friends, or siblings – everyone is welcome! 💖🎨

Unwind after work, clear your mind, and immerse yourself in a world of color – that's what this 1.5-hour acrylic painting workshop is all about. "After Work Flow" is a creative space where you can find peace, leave everyday life behind, and fully embrace the moment. No prior experience is necessary – just the desire to try something new and engage with color and movement. On a 30 x 30 cm canvas, you'll discover the freedom of abstract painting. There's no right or wrong, no perfect or imperfect – only your personal expression. You'll learn how colors interact, how they mix, overlap, and create new moods. It's not just about the result, but above all about the process: feeling, observing, and letting go. A special focus is placed on getting to know colors intuitively. You'll be surprised how individual hues change when combined and how much emotion can be contained in a single area of ​​color. Step by step, you'll develop your own abstract painting and learn to let go of preconceived notions. Brushstrokes also play a crucial role. You'll discover different ways to apply paint – calmly, boldly, softly, or with texture. Each brushstroke becomes a movement that lends depth and character to your painting. You're encouraged to experiment, try things out, and find new forms of expression without pressure or expectations. The workshop invites you to enter a state of flow – a place where time ceases to matter and you become completely immersed in the creative process. This is precisely where relaxation arises: when you detach yourself from your thoughts and simply allow yourself to drift. All materials are provided, including a 30 x 30 cm canvas, high-quality acrylic paints, and all necessary tools. At the end, you'll take your own abstract artwork home – a memento of a short creative break just for you. "After Work Flow" is more than just a painting course. It's a break from everyday life, a moment for yourself, and an invitation to experience color anew.
