The days are getting colder and shorter and the colourful autumn is passing. But, the best time of the year is just starting. Who does not love the Christmas excitement of December? ISOW wants to get together with you and embrace the warm feeling of home and togetherness. Therefore, we prepare an afternoon of traditional warm drinks, creative Christmas crafting and cozy chit-chat in our candlelit ISOW building.
To show you what Christmas tastes like, we prepare delicioius spiced Glühwein (hot wine) and traditional Christmas sweets for you. If you prefer a wine without alcohol, we also have Christmas Punsch available (hot fruit juice). While comforting yourself with warm drinks, you can join us for two creative Christmas workshops:
* card crafting and gift-wrapping woChristmasrkshop *
The materials will be provided and you can craft as many cards as you like. If you have already done your Christmas shopping, feel free to bring your presents and learn how to artistically wrap them up. If you do not have any presents yet, then you can practice on dummies.

Christmas is right around the corner, so ISOW has geared up for yet another amazing trip. This time we will be visiting the Christmas market of Aachen, a tranquil city situated in the south of Germany. The city, popularly known as the “SPA CAPITOL” of Germany, houses a thermal bath (Optional- not included in the price) to give you the right amount of warm and cosy experience during the chilly German winters. It also hosts a hip and happening Christmas market right in the heart of the city. On our way to Aachen we would also make a stop at the triple country point where you can experience being in three countries at the same time!

Diwali- The festival of lights
It is symbolic of the victory of good over evil linked to the ancient tales of Hindu literature. People today draw the idea from there and celebrate this joyous occasion with family and friends, distributing sweets, decorating home and more importantly with lights, in the form of Diyas, the traditional lamps. Come join us and we will tell you about all the modern interpretations of this ancient concept.
The event will be held in ISOW on 11th November from 6-9pm.
First we will tell you all about Diwali as you enjoy Indian snacks, then you will experience the rich Indian culture in the form of cultural performances. You light up diyas and play some traditional games with us after which you can dance your heart out to Indian music.
Entry is free!
Food charge- 4 for non members, 3 for members.
Jump on the Art Express and unleash your creativity 🚂
Our artists invite you to join them for a fun afternoon of sharing knowledge, ideas and curiosity about different fields of art. Here you can get a better idea of what you can expect:
Poetry performance
By Donatella Gasparro
Have you always loved writing verses but never dared standing in front of a crowd? The mic, who’s this stranger? Do you want to explore the performative possibilities of your texts? Come join us for this performative poetry workshop: we’ll break the ice and build up confidence in sharing our deepest poetic thoughts.
Collage art
By Marcel Reulen
In this workshop, we will explore the magic and possibilities of the art of paper collage under the guidance of Wageningen based urban collage artist Perishable Rush. If you have collage material, such as magazines at home, please bring them to the workshop.
Brushless painting
By Sarah Haimes
Miss that childlike feeling of touching everything and getting your hands dirty? This workshop will take you back to those days when painting had nothing to do with technique but whimsical feelings of enjoyment and glee. We will each paint a canvas with our naked fingers, feel the cool paint on your tips and the rugged canvas beneath. You can paint whatever comes to your mind or heart as long as you are smiling through it. No artistic skills necessary just some nude fingertips and your enthusiasm! (Warning: Save your favourite clothes, do not wear them to this workshop!)
Improv Comedy
By Emma Holmes
Need to clear out those mind cobwebs? Then improv is for you! Use your body and voice to be as silly, and therefore as funny, as humanly possible. Through games and scenes learn to be spontaneously funny with your team mates in this beginner's introduction to improv and the performing arts. No experience needed, just an ability to laugh!
Creative Writing
By Tina Hauptfeld
Writer's workout: Writing a good story takes a lot of things - great, relatable characters, a nice plot and most of all: training. Exercises for writing different perspectives, locations, tips for overcoming writer's block, and building engaging characters await you in this workshop. Instructions will be in English, but you can write in whatever language you want. And do not worry: there will be no reading aloud of the created texts.
Get ready for Halloween!
Begin Period 2 with the right amount of spooks and scares with your friends! Carve your very own Jack-o-Lantern, and enjoy a delicious soup made out of the insides of the pumpkin. Make your own gooey radioactive material in our Make your Slime workshop. Shiver with fear at the spooky stories get-together. Enjoy a slasher-scary movie playing in the movie room! Prepare your own costume and paint your face or your friend’s to bring out the fright! Dare to venture into the basement where fear lurks in every corner? There is all this and so much more! Join in the fun with ISOW for a spooky spirited night, and top it off with IxESN’s Halloween Party!
