Potsdam painted with fingers: Creative holiday workshop at the Old Market

Discover Potsdam creatively: Dive into the cityscape with your fingers

The holiday workshop Potsdam painted with fingers brings children from the age of 10 right into the colorful world of Christopher Lehmpfuhl. At the Potsdam Museum at the Old Market, participants will experience an exhibition that sharpens the view of the city, light, and movement before they become creative themselves with easels and colors. The event takes place on August 11, 2026, at 11:00 AM at the Potsdam Museum - Forum for Art and History. ([potsdamtourismus.de](https://www.potsdamtourismus.de/event/potsdam-mit-den-fingern-gemalt))

Color, structure, and direct encounter with art

Lehmpfuhl's works are characterized by intense color application, direct working, and vibrant city views. This very handwriting makes the workshop exciting: First, the eyes are guided through the exhibition, then it goes out to the Old Market, where the children translate their own impressions into a personal Potsdam. This creates a genuine event experience between museum, urban space, and creative practice. ([potsdamtourismus.de](https://www.potsdamtourismus.de/event/potsdam-mit-den-fingern-gemalt))

Creative holiday program with museum character

The workshop combines cultural education with playful experimentation. This format is particularly attractive for families because it brings together art mediation, event atmosphere, and hands-on participation. The event is designed as a holiday workshop for children aged 10 and above, targeting young explorers who have a passion for color, shapes, and creating their own images.
