...

Together, we would like to celebrate the end of our stay in the Rheingau with a big community picnic!

Please bring a picnic blanket and something to eat. It is especially nice if your dish comes with a personal story – perhaps a favourite meal, a family recipe, or something that reminds you of home and that you would enjoy sharing with others.

The Constructlab team will also invite everyone to taste some of the treats created during the residency. Fresh baked goods from Bäckerei Dries, non-alcoholic drinks and coffee by Etappe Roasters will be provided as well.

If you would like, you are welcome to join us in the morning and help with the preparations. Together with the Kräuterwirte Assmannshausen, we will make herbal salt, and you can also watch the bakers at work and lend a hand.

Supporting programme:

10:00 am – 1:00 pm
Workshop: Make Your Own Herbal Salt
with the Kräuterwirte Assmannshausen

12:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Workshop: Bake Crispy Bread Rolls
with Stefan Dries, Bäckerei Dries

We are looking forward to seeing you. Feel free to bring friends, family, and neighbours along!
