Craft with Heart: R. Kleebach at the Artist Workshop Mainz

On Sunday, December 13, 2026, the Artist Workshop in Fahnenkarree at Höfchen invites you to experience traditional crafts up close. R. Kleebach demonstrates how warm socks and gloves as well as lovingly crocheted animal figures are created.

When Yarn Becomes Wearable Art

The workshop makes the creation process visible: From textile materials, useful items with a personal touch are developed. Stitches, shapes, and colors combine craftsmanship precision with an immediate aesthetic experience. Visitors experience how enduring handwork produces textile surfaces, warming clothing, and small figures.

Textile Design Between Everyday Life and Fantasy

Socks and gloves represent the practical side of the craft. The crocheted animal figures add a playful, narrative dimension to this spectrum. In the work inspection, function, materiality, and imagination meet – key qualities of applied art and cultural education.

Exhibition Atmosphere in Mainz's Advent

The Artist Workshop is part of the Mainz Christmas Market and is located in the extension of the Honey House in Fahnenkarree at Höfchen. Between winter market atmosphere and focused handwork, a special art experience emerges: Visitors can look over the shoulders of the artisans and witness the textile production firsthand.
