Team events

Hands in the plaster, heads off the screen

Casting workshops for teams and companies in Berlin — for team building, offsites, client events and celebrations. Everyone casts, everyone takes an object home.

Plan a team event

The studio table prepared for a group workshop with buckets of alginate and plaster
Why it works

A few hours of real material: cool alginate, warm plaster, the moment a mould comes off. Teams talk differently when their hands are busy.

An artist-led, experimental format instead of another escape room. Brooke Meenan explains every step, the group works side by side at the studio table, and at the end there is an object for everyone — a cast hand, a foot, a leaf or a small sculpture.

Questions

About team events

What kind of team event does Life Casting Berlin offer?

Hands-on casting workshops led by sculptor Brooke Meenan: the team casts hands or feet in skin-safe alginate and plaster, frees the casts from the mould and refines them. Resin and gold leaf can be added. Everyone takes home what they made.

Can the workshop take place at our office or venue?

Yes, by arrangement. Water-based materials make it possible to work outside the studio; the space needs tables and access to water.

How big can the group be?

At the studio the workshops run in small groups so everyone can work hands-on. Larger teams are split into rounds or the workshop comes to your venue. Tell us your group size and we suggest a format.

Do participants need any experience?

No. The workshop is an introduction to casting, from the first mould to the finished object — suitable for everyone.
