A cup of hot chocolate and a stunning multi-layered postcard in hand... This is what Valentine's morning might have looked like in the 19th century...
We invite you to experience together the lost beauty and magic of this holiday... Travel back in time to see real vintage Valentine's cards - the most delicate and ornate of all... Truly filigree! Take a trip to a 19th-century sweet shop somewhere - even in Vilnius! - and... maybe pick out some sweets for Valentine's Day... Talk about... CHOCOLATE! After all, next to delicate greeting cards, it was one of the most frequent gifts. Taste hot chocolate from a real vintage chocolate maker! And vintage bonbons and other Valentine's Day treats from the history of 19th century confectionery. Learn and discover many other wonders and surprises of this holiday...
And during the workshop we will do something we have never done before - BUILD multilayered dimensional Valentine's cards! We will use real parts still made according to 19th century designs: Dresden cardboard details, cut-outs, paintings, old technology...
Did you know that in the 19th century, Valentine's Day was for EVERYONE and EVERYONE - from children to old people, not just "lovers"? It was a celebration of love and affection. So don't just invite your other half... Bring your grandparents, grandchildren, uncles, aunts or just your dear friends... Together, let's discover the true meaning of Valentine's Day - in the 19th century! After all, cards or chocolate are just an expression of what matters most - an expression of LOVE.
