The annual Art Afternoon, now a tradition, returns once again to the program of “Design Week 2026.”
This year, it invites the creative, art, and design communities to gather at events taking place in Alytus and Kaunas.

Organized by the Arts and Design Education Center, the Art Afternoon brings together creators from various fields,

students, artists, and the city community every year for a shared creative experience.

This year’s event theme is “Bubbles,” inviting participants to explore the world of forms, colors, lightness, and creative
improvisation. During the Art Afternoon, visitors will be able to participate in educational activities, observe creative
processes, try out various art and design techniques, and learn about the work of artisans and creators.

Activities at the event
• Demonstration of three-dimensional weaving
• Workshop on weaving bubbles from unpeeled willow
• Making and decorating ceramic bubbles
• Making earrings from brass bubbles
• Creative workshop “Bubble Greetings” – creating postcards and bookmarks
• Collage workshop “My Room’s Vision”
• Badge-making workshop “A Detail That Speaks”

The annual Art Afternoon, whose 2026 theme is “Bubbles,” is an open creative space
where design, art, crafts, and community come together. The event is for everyone—both young people
and adults—seeking inspiration, new experiences, and the opportunity to create together.
