The non-profit organisation, Bunte Kuh e.V. offered an interactive event over the duration of 4 weeks.

Children and teenagers were invited to create their own walk-in constructions and sculptures – up to 4 meters in height using 80 tons of clay and their own ideas and designs. Now they can be admired.

With a little assistance, these architects, big and small, applied their hands and their imagination to create a fascinating new city beneath the tent ceiling - a city full of domes, caves and monsters.

After the farewell party with live-music, the children can climb the giant sculptures during an exhibition week, and also take their smaller models home with them. The larger structures are then broken down and the clay recycled for future building adventures. The interactive event comes with a free invitation to all visitors: old and young, disabled and non-disabled, people from each and every nation.

The project takes place in the summer and is set up at the same locations for several years in a row.

The building material clay with its ‚social and cultural adhesive force' brang together 7.5000 children, their teachers, families and neighbours, joined in their activities at a public ‚pride production site'.

During these creative and communicative building sessions, the participants did more than just compose imaginative pieces of architecture in the middle of urban neighbourhoods. They created new spaces for people to meet.
