Wecandoo geeft iedereen de kans om een workshop te ervaren in het atelier van een lokale ambachtsman of -vrouw, om samen een eigen unieke creatie te maken. Een bijzondere ervaring waar je een vaardigheid kan ontdekken met gepassioneerde vakmensen en je eigen creativiteit kunt laten spreken.

Absolutely loved it! Niamh was amazing, we had such a fun afternoon getting to know her and she did a great job of teaching us what to do then making us feel independent on the wheel. We love our pieces too.
