Creative in the W1: Discover the free space for upcycling and art!
The “FreiRaum” in W1 Regensburg offers creative uses for everyone who is looking for space and materials to create.
Creative in the W1: Discover the free space for upcycling and art!
The creative format “FreiRaum” was launched in Regensburg, which inspires art lovers and craft enthusiasts alike. It invites you to use the wonderful rooms of the W1 on your own responsibility on selected dates. Whether painting, drawing or upcycling – everyone will find their hobby here. If you don't have the necessary options at home, you can let off steam in the studio and let your creativity run wild. Regensburg.de reports that the facility not only offers a wealth of materials, but also an inspiring atmosphere.
A variety of tools and materials are available in the studio. From acrylic paints and professional easels to lino printing tools and scraps of fabric and leather - you'll find what you're looking for here. Even upcycled products such as corks, tetra packs or egg boxes are waiting to be creatively recycled. If you would like to bring your own projects, you are welcome to bring them with you or start on site. The use of these materials is possible with almost no restrictions, and a voluntary contribution of €3-5 ensures that everything stays in good condition.
Creative-looking dates and options
The “FreiRaum” project takes place two to four times a month, and spontaneous visitors are warmly welcome. The special thing about it: There are no fixed costs or contract signings required. If you feel like just stopping by, all you have to do is check in with the W1 team. A short introduction ensures that everyone is familiar with the tools and materials provided and can get started straight away.
One aspect that is currently very popular is upcycling. This creative recycling of materials produces new, high quality products without violating the integrity of the original materials. climate change-info.com describes that on average each of us produces around 31 kilograms of textile waste annually - a sign that upcycling is not only trendy, but also necessary. The market for upcycling products will be worth over 350 billion euros by 2028. This shows that this is much more than just a passing trend.
Inspiration for your own projects
The range of upcycling ideas is almost endless. You can spruce up old furniture, convert old jeans into shorts, or turn t-shirts into tote bags. Jewelry made from old buttons, vases made from glass bottles or newly designed picture frames are just a few of the many options that inspire creative minds. It's worth sharing your own projects on social media and inspiring others. Bottleneck-project.org offers a platform that compiles important information and ideas for creative design.
The “FreiRaum” project is recommended to everyone who wants to express themselves creatively and at the same time make a positive contribution to the environment. Whether individually or in exchange with like-minded people - this is where you bring your ideas and materials together and let your creativity run wild.
