We believe that discovering design should start young. COLLECTIBLE runs kids’ workshops to convey the passion of design to children, while enabling parents to enjoy the fair safe in the knowledge that their kids are in good hands.

2024 Edition

In collaboration 
with artecetera

In 2024, the Kids' Corner at COLLECTIBLE featured an engaging workshop titled "Flowers of the Future" by artecetera. Open to adult-child duos (aged 8+), it provided a unique opportunity to craft surreal botanical pieces from colourful plastic waste. This initiative, supported by Showtex, Kringwinkel, and Atelier Lachaert Dhanis, underscored environmental consciousness through creativity. It was part of artecetera's mission to blend art, design, and craftsmanship while promoting community engagement and ecological responsibility.
