Welcome to a creative afternoon with Mia Kolmodin and guests! 
This will be a fun, informative, and interactive session. We will start with Andrea sharing her approach to writing and illustrating children’s picture books, developing a character and a story, and turning it into a finished book. She will share her characters and the story from her popular book “Regina is NOT a little dinosaur”.
Then everyone who would like to can participate in activities where we will all get a chance to draw and release the inner creative genius that is inside every one of us. You can participate regardless of your skill level.
In the hands-on part of this session, we will explore what it really means to create art by doing it, and how to free your mind so you can draw without fear. Many people who have tried these simple techniques have learned to capture their ideas, moods, and thoughts in simple line drawings and sketches.
During the hands-on drawing activities we participate in easy exercises and learn how to:
– Make simple yet expressive drawings
– Get ideas and find new ways of thinking
– Reduce or eliminate the fear of failure
Target group: This workshop for both children and adults (including software folks) and many have found these easy and fun exercises and techniques to be a big help in going from “I wish I could” to “wow, I can!” You ARE good enough, you CAN draw.

After FUN: 16.30 – 18.00 for those who wants to hang out and chat

Dandy People’s creative space
Our central workshop and training facilities that inspires to creativity and growth.
In the center of Stockholm you find our creative space of 100 sqm designed for Agile workshops, trainings, seminars, meetups and other activities to support fun and energizing growth. We offer our consultants, customers and partners to use our facilities and we also use it for our own activities within Dandy People.
The space is named Las Vegas, because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas 😉
The Las Vegas space is divided in two big rooms with a wall, but no doors in between. That is why both areas are always used by the same group at all times. One part, the SOCIAL SPACE, of about 50 sqm is designed with comfy sofas and chairs for about 20 people. And on the other side of the wall is the WORKSHOP SPACE. This space is dedicated for workshops, trainings and seminars and it is an open space about 50 sqm with flexible furniture to fit any purpose.
