Tracing a better life

We are a holistic wellbeing centre.

Handcraft facilities for different kinds of creativity

Make your own gemstone, modify recycled materials to be new works, take a photo with a pinhole carema and develop the picture in our darkroom, make up your friend or print a camp T-shirt or shopping bag. You can make your creativities become true in Piispala’s handcraft workrooms, which can be used by big groups too.

Our instructed handcraft activities can be arranged for both small and big groups, which workroom to be used depending on the group size. See descriptions of our handcraft activities and book a creative moment for your group. Check from here more descriptions about handcraft programmes.
