SUMMARY:New Craft: Heritage or Personal Narrative?
DESCRIPTION:Contemporary craft practices are increasingly moving away from a singular understanding of cultural heritage\, while still remaining in dialogue with it. Tradition is no longer seen as a closed set of forms and techniques\, but rather as a point of reference and material for reinterpretation\, negotiation\, and personal storytelling. \nToday\, makers engage with craft as a tool for constructing meanings. Objects become carriers of intimate and emotional memory\, often extending beyond national narratives of “Polish design.” In this context\, craft reveals itself as a living practice\, rooted in the present\, capable of preserving what is fleeting. \nEveryday life gains particular significance: its rhythms\, landscapes\, and experiences subtly permeating the forms\, colors\, and textures of objects. It is within the tension between place\, memory\, and individual experience that a new language of contemporary craft emerges. \nWe invite you to join a conversation on what craft means today and what role tradition plays within it. \nMay 27th\, BWA Bydgoszcz\, st. Gdanska 20\, at 18:00\nGuests: Aliona Kryshtofik\, Beata Wietrzyńska\, Evelina Wójtowicz\nModerator: Monika Osinkowska\nFree admission.\nThe event is part of the “CoffeeTalk” series.\nThe project is carried out in partnership within the Craftwork 4.0 All program. \n\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				CoffeeTalk Beata Wietrzynska 1\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				CoffeeTalk Evelina Wojtowicz 1\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				CoffeeTalk Aliona Kryshtofik 1

The discussion will highlight the various opportunities that emerged from these practices\, including recorded works\, live performances\, national and international exhibitions\, public art projects\, and community engagement. Each of these outcomes has been deeply rooted in cultural resources\, demonstrating the value of heritage in contemporary craft. \nBy drawing on these experiences\, the presentation will illustrate how cultural identity and diversity can inspire new ideas\, foster collaborations\, and create fresh career opportunities.

SUMMARY:Craft Coffee Talk: NéoPaléo
DESCRIPTION:An online visit of the exhibition NéoPaléo\, curated by Studio BehaghelFoiny. This exhibition seeks to write a history of design between past\, present\, and future\, bringing together the creations of around fifteen designers. \nThe history of technology has been built on a gradual evolution from manual labor to the use of increasingly sophisticated tools and machines. Going against this trend\, the NéoPaléo exhibition presents a landscape of contemporary design practices that engage directly with materials and fully reintegrate the spontaneity of the hand into the way they are shaped\, while remaining in tune with today’s material and technological environment. The NeoPaleo time capsule thus brings together heterogeneous approaches\, where gestures mobilize both ancestral know-how and digital processes\, manufactured elements and elements derived from living organisms. \nSpeakers: Studio BehaghelFoiny (Antoine Behaghel & Alexis Foiny) \nPartner: Bureau du Design\, de la Mode et des Métiers d’Art – Ville de Paris \nRegistration link:\nhttps://www.helloasso.com/associations/villette-makerz/evenements/neopaleo-avec-studio-behaghelfoiny-coffee-talk

SUMMARY:Coffee Talk with Cas Holman: Radical Play
DESCRIPTION:Due to high demand\, we will have a livestream of the talk on location at Multipurpose room 2 on the 2nd Floor of Center Rog. For easier organization\, applications are required for the livestream as well. This coffee talk is organised in the scope of our Crafwork4.0All project\, supported by the Creative Europe programme. \nOver the last century\, play has continuously been relegated to the realms of children or the frivolous. Why for so long have social norms taught us to strive to be rational\, civilized\, and to control ourselves? What is it about play that is disconcerting? \nOn Tuesday\, April 22\, at 6:00 PM\, we invite you to a lecture by renowned American designer Cas Holman\, an expert in toy design and tools for intergenerational play. In the talk Cas Holman will use examples from her work to illustrate play as an act of rebellion—a joyous method for learning\, expressing oneself\, forming empathetic connections\, pushing boundaries\, and reshaping our world. \nThe lecture serves as a public introduction to the two-day masterclass\, taking place at Center Rog on April 23 and 24. \nAbout the speaker\nCas Holman is the founder and chief designer of the toy company Heroes Will Rise and a former Professor of Industrial Design at Rhode Island School of Design. Cas travels the globe speaking about early education\, the design process\, and the value of play in all aspects of life. She has shared her perspective in workshops and seminars with teams at Google\, Nike\, LEGO Foundation\, Disney Imagineering\, and more. \nSome of her designs include toys like Rigamajig and structures at the Highline in New York and the Liberty Science Center in Jersey City\, New Jersey. She lives in New York City and designs from her studio in Brooklyn. Her philosophy and approach to designing for play was recently featured in the award-winning documentary series Abstract: The Art of Design on Netflix. Cas’s book Playful: How Play Shifts Our Thinking\, Inspires Connection\, and Sparks Creativity will be released in October 2025\, published by Avery\, an imprint of Penguin Random House. \nMore info and registration here »
