We’ll guide you through stripping, padding, fabric selection, and finishing techniques. No experience necessary, we provide all materials! **Limited spots!** [Get your tickets directly from Studio Jojola. ](https://www.studiojojola.com/shop/p/introduction-to-upholstery-workshop-4gmpt) #### Here's some further info on what to expect: #### **Do I need any experience?** Not at all! This workshop is designed for complete beginners. You’ll learn everything step-by-step. #### **Do I need to bring anything?** Nope — we provide the chair, fabric, tools, and all materials. Just wear clothes you don’t mind getting dusty or messy. #### **What kind of chair will I be working on?** Each participant gets a pre-loved wooden chair with a padded seat. Designs may vary slightly, but all are beginner-friendly and great for learning. #### **Is the chair really mine to take home?** Yes — the chair is yours to keep at the end of the workshop. #### **Can I attend just one of the two days?** The workshop is designed as a complete two-day experience — on the first day, we take the chair apart and prepare it; on the second, we reassemble and upholster it with your chosen fabric. For this reason, attending both days is essential. #### **How many people will be in the class?** We keep it small (max 8 people) so everyone gets individual attention and space to work. #### **Is this accessible for people with limited mobility?** Please get in touch and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs and share access details for the venue. #### **What if I need to cancel?** We offer a full refund up to 14 days before the event. After that, we can’t guarantee a refund but may be able to transfer your spot to someone else. #### **Will there be food?** We provide tea, coffee, and light snacks. #### **Is there an age requirement?** Yes — this workshop is for adults 18 and over. Due to the tools and materials involved, it's not suitable for children or teens. Participation of minors under the supervision of an adult may be considered on an individual basis. Please get in touch for more details. #### **Can I choose my fabric?** Yes! We’ll have a curated selection of upholstery fabrics to choose from on the day. If you have something special you'd like to use, feel free to bring it — just let us know in advance so we can confirm it's suitable.

Join this Professional Communication session — to sharpen the skills for architectural pitches, elevator pitches, interviews. This time we meet in the Monbijou park. 💡 How it works The event is split into two parts: 1. **Communication (10 minute rounds)** – One participant answers a round of design and behavioral questions. Each other participant gets to ask him one question. 2. **Feedback Round** – The group provides feedback on communication, structure, and clarity. Constructive criticism is encouraged. 💡You will be asked: * **Light design problems** (high-level reasoning, not code) * **Behavioral questions** (“Tell me about yourself”, “Describe a challenge you faced...”) No need to prepare anything in advance — just bring curiosity and an open mind. 💡Note: location is the entrance to Monbijou park

Join us for coffee, good conversation, and a dose of “It girl” energy to kick-start your week strong! What we’ll do together: • Reflect on where we are in this moment of life. • Define what we want to achieve or work toward. • Create a mini plan for the next two weeks with goal setting, scheduling, and accountability pairing. ☕ Bring your favorite drink order and an open mindset!

We meet and sketch each other in Berlin. This is just an art gym that we also exercise our social skills. Afterwards usually we go for lunch as a group. **How Does It Work?** This event is simple, we meet and sketch each other doing portraits. Most of the participants use pencils or watercolors. Main aim is to socialize while we draw. There will be plenty of time to talk and get to know each other. We have to mention that this event is suitable for all levels. Many have started to draw in our event actually. **Structure** A. Warmup Phase: We pose to each other for 1 minute. B. Main Phase: We pose to each other for 10 minutes. C. Showcase Phase: We show some of the drawings we did to each other. **Who We Are** Creative Sessions is an art events group located in Berlin. **Is it Free?** The event is free of charge. It is advisable to get a drink though. This is a cafe, we need to have at least half of the people on each table with a drink. They accept only cash and most hot drinks cost from 2.50 to 3.50. **How to help or donate?** The event is provided for free but many people help this be a regular thing. We also need people to volunteer and help for minor tasks like the serving of the drinks or cleaning up. Just send us a message.

Bring a blanket, maybe a drink or snack, and 3–5 books you’d like to pass on, and spend a relaxed Sunday afternoon with fellow readers at the Gleisdreieck Park.

This is not a formal market or networking event — just a cozy little community gathering with books, conversations, and a bit of curiosity.
