The annual Art Afternoon, now a tradition, returns once again to the program of “Design Week 2026.”
This year, it invites the creative, art, and design communities to gather at events taking place in Alytus and Kaunas.

Organized by the Arts and Design Education Center, the Art Afternoon brings together creators from various fields,

students, artists, and the city community every year for a shared creative experience.

This year’s event theme is “Bubbles,” inviting participants to explore the world of forms, colors, lightness, and creative
improvisation. During the Art Afternoon, visitors will be able to participate in educational workshops, observe creative
processes, try out various art and design techniques, and learn about the work of artisans and creators.

Activities at the event
• Workshop on creating the enameled pendant “Gaubtas”
• Making earrings from brass bubbles
• Ceramics workshop “Bubble Blowing”
• Collage workshop “The Vision of My Room”
• Making cyanotype postcards using UV light
• Badge-making workshop “A Detail That Speaks”

The annual Art Afternoon, whose 2026 theme is “Bubbles,” is an open creative space
where design, art, crafts, and community come together. The event is for everyone—both young people
and adults—looking for inspiration, new experiences, and the chance to create together.
