Learn to turn your own vase

Join this three and a half hour workshop to learn the art of woodturning and create your very own vase.

During this workshop, you'll learn how to use a turning wheel or woodturning lathe to transform a piece of local wood from the Kempen into a beautiful wooden vase. You'll have the chance to work with both a small and large woodturning lathe, and Max will be there to guide you every step of the way.

Max has carefully selected only the finest local wood for you to choose from, so you can be sure that your piece will be truly special. Once your creation is complete, it will be oiled and dried for 24 hours, he'll explain how to care for it properly. But don't worry, Max will provide you with a plastic bag to protect it so you can take it home with you.

Throughout the workshop, you'll have access to water and tea to keep you refreshed and energised. This is an immersive, hands-on experience that you won't want to miss.

So come join us for a day of creativity, learning, and fun with Max. Discover the art of woodworking and leave with a unique vase that you can be proud of!

Meet Max, the artist whose passion for design and creativity has led him to create unique pieces of art that showcase the natural beauty of local wood species.

Max's workshops are a testament to his commitment to sustainability and ecology. Each piece he creates is made from trees in the province of Antwerp that were either blown down or removed for other reasons, giving them a second life.

Through his creations, Max offers a small oasis of tranquillity in our hectic society, inviting us to contemplate and enjoy the little things in life.

But that's not all. Max also offers workshops in wood turning, where you can create your very own vase, bowl, or candle holder. These workshops take place in an outdoor workspace, featuring two woodturning machines. And to keep you refreshed during the workshops, tea and water are readily available.

In the winter, the workshop can get chilly, but don't worry - Max has got you covered. He's installed a small fire pit to keep you warm and cosy while you work on your project.

Join Max and discover the beauty and creativity of woodworking.
