Landart in Tennenlohe: When the Forest Becomes a Print Workshop

On October 10, 2026, the Forest Experience Center Tennenlohe transforms into a creative nature workshop. Children aged 6 to 12 will discover together with course leader Julia Griebel how to create their own artworks from bark, cones, leaves, and moss. The focus is on the direct connection between forest education, aesthetic experience, and practical work observation.

Nature Materials as Artistic Finds

The Landart event begins with a careful observation of the surroundings. Different surfaces, lines, and structures are collected and then used as natural printing forms. Imprints in clay and mud make the characteristic shapes of the forest visible and translate them into a tactile, independent visual language.

The Mysterious Traces of Bark Beetles and Copper Beetles

A particular emphasis is placed on two well-known forest pests: bark beetles and copper beetles. The children investigate the traces left by the tiny beetles and learn about the ecological connections in the forest. From the feeding channels in spruce bark, fascinating templates for their own designs emerge.

Art Education with All Senses

The artistic experience combines observation, material experience, and creative action. The exhibition atmosphere of the Forest Experience Center expands into an open workshop under the sign of Landart. Forms are touched, natural materials examined, and transformed into a personal composition. Thus, cultural education becomes directly experienced.

A Forest Program for Curious Explorers

The Forest Experience Center Tennenlohe conveys knowledge about forests, forestry, flora, and fauna. The event directs this educational work towards an artistic direction and shows how closely nature observation and design are connected. Children experience the forest not only as a habitat but also as a source of shapes, colors, and stories.

Conclusion: Creative Traces from the Forest

Landart – Nature Prints with the Art of Bark Beetles & Copper Beetles promises a vibrant artistic experience between nature experience and workshop work. Children create their own works, discover ecological connections, and develop a new perspective on the traces of the forest. An inspiring morning for young art and nature lovers that should definitely be experienced live.
