SATURDAY WORKSHOP

In order to stir the creative spirit in children and their parents, Design Drive designers hosted open Saturday Workshops at Martas iela 1 during February 2009. The Saturday Workshop is a new place in Riga where parents can come with their children to participate in creative activities with Latvian designers. Saturday Workshop visitors are invited to express their creativity and develop their imaginations with toys made by the designers, as well as to create their own toys. The key is for children to work together with their parents; the designer is the medium providing families with the materials they need. The high count to the Saturday Workshop and responsiveness of the visitors has inspired the designers to work on a similar approach to design services in Riga.
