About us
ATELIER zwo.7 is located in an old barn in the small village of Krebsow. The university town of Greifswald, 16 km to the west, can be reached by bike to the nearest trainstation Züssow and train in 20 minutes.
We are a colourful mix of professions, experiences and personalities: artists, gardener, landscape architect, potter, etc. Together, we run the open workshops for children and adults. In the large studio and the ceramic workplace, we invite people for bookbinding, sewing, printing, painting, theatre and modelling.
There are regular afternoon activities for children (during the week), and workshops on specific topics held on weekends for everyone.
The Atelier organisation also wants to develop the vegetable and herb garden as a learning field for children. In the future, we would like to expand the community work with children as a project. Even now, growing in permaculture, harvesting vegetables and herbs for the farm is part of it.
We are concerned with creative work and lifelong learning that is made possible by one's own interest and needs.
