Library festival in Forchheim: Creative Cork boats to participate!

Forchheim, Deutschland - A unique event inspired visitors on July 23, 2025 in the culture.sommer.quartier in Forchheim. As part of the traditional library festival, which is organized in close cooperation between the BUND (BN) and the city library, children and adults were able to immerse themselves in the world of books and creative craft ideas. The day was a complete success, with numerous offers that were both informative and entertaining.

A highlight of the festival was the offer of the BUND for the Forchheim local group. There was not only information about various natural topics, but also an exciting tree quiz. It was important to correctly assign the bark from different tree species. The quiz was very popular, but the craft stations magically attracted most of the little visitors.

handicraft fun with corken boats

A particularly popular handicraft offer was the construction of sailing and pirate boats from wine corks. This versatile handicraft, which can be transformed into all kinds of skill, from simple rafts to impressive steamships, hit the nerve of the children. Many of them were able to put their self -made boats on the test and test their suitability for water in the neighboring stream. So the festival not only gave space for creativity, but also for exciting competition!

The mothers among the visitors also enjoyed their joy: they like to grab pasture rods and wooden residues to make pretty flower lights. An alternative offered the tinkering of stick people from branches and wool remnants, which required patience and skill. For the cork boats, the hobbyists should use a waterproof glue and the popular hot glue guns could provide additional stability if you were careful.

a joint mandate

The entire handicraft fun could only be made possible by the active support of volunteers, employees of the municipal building yard and the city library. They all contributed to the fact that the event became not only a place of learning, but also of the community.

In summary, it can be said that this year's library festival in culture.sommer.quartier was once again a complete success. It was a place in which nature, art and reading pleasure came together - and all of this in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. For all small and big creative people, a nice day came to an end, with many new experiences and memories that will encourage you to the next festival.
