Description

Together with young people from the city, you will build wooden market stands, which can be used for Christmas markets or food/vegetable markets. You will receive professional guidance.

Your creativity will be challenged while organizing and conducting a multicultural event of the city Bad Bibra. According to your personal interests, you will work out and present a music-theatre project. Furthermore, you can participate in a drum workshop which will be hold by a famous musician from the republic of Congo, who is usually playing in well known world music bands. In the recording studio next door, you might be able to record some songs.

Bad Bibra is situated in Saxony-Anhalt; 70 km from Weimar and 80 km from Leipzig. This city is close to the natural park Saale-Unstrut-Triasland and therefore you will have many free time activities to your disposal: gymnasium and open air pool, do some cannoeing, bowling, football or visit the medieval monastery nearby.
