"Take part in our creative project": in September, the Salzgitter girls' work group invited girls to take part in three activities at the children's and youth clubs (KJTs) Thiede, Hamberg, Graffiti and the Forellenhof youth culture workshop (JKW). The creativity of the participating girls was diverse: portraits and abstract works as well as landscapes and still lifes.

The Dürerring elementary school also took part with girls from a fourth grade class. Under the title "From the shadows into the light", 16 portraits were created.

A work of art was also created during a girls' afternoon at Klunkau secondary school.

The girls are presenting the creative results in two exhibitions and would be delighted to welcome many guests.
