On Sunday, 14th December, from 14.00 to 16.30, the Jewellery workshop inspired by ethnography will be held in the NART, led by PIRET PUPPART, head of the fashion design department at the Estonian Academy of Arts and curator of the exhibition “Threads of Kinship”, and internationally recognized Sámi fashion designer Ramona Salo.
During the workshop, Ramona will introduce the creation of earrings inspired by Sámi traditions, and Piret will demonstrate how to make Christmas decorations using symbols originating from the Ingrian, Votian, and Izhorian regions. Participants may focus on just one direction or explore both. The final result will surely bring joy—either to keep for yourself or to place in a gift bag.
The workshop accommodates 10 participants, lasts 2.5 hours, and communication will take place in Estonian, Russian, and English. All materials are provided free of charge.
