Welcome to get creative in our educational workshop!

In Madicken’s time, black-and-white photography was the norm. But if you wanted colour photographs, you could always ask the photographer to hand-colour them, adding colour by hand after the picture had been developed.

Today, you can try this traditional technique yourself by hand-colouring old-fashioned Christmas photographs. A perfect craft activity for creating unique Christmas cards to send to family and friends!

  • Welcome to our educational workshop in The Allmoge hall.

  • An education officer is always present, but please note that accompanying adults are responsible for supervising their children during the activities.

  • We recommend visiting the Madicken play exhibition before the craft activity, so children can gather inspiration for their artworks.
