Workshops
FLACC boasts professionally equipped workshops for metal- and woodworking, a digital studio, a kiln workshop for ceramics, small- format bronze and glass applications, and a multifunctional space. Moreover, the organization is aware of production facilities available externally and collaborates with workshops, schools and companies in the neighbourhood to give artists the best possible support. FLACC also has a large working space that caters for the various needs of contemporary artists and the many different forms their creativity takes. On request, external experts can be brought in to provide technical or artistic assistance and advice. Click here for a full list of facilities.
Artists can also use the facilities to produce their own work. A small charge is made for this. See Services (at the top of your screen) for further information.
