Sculpting
A few years ago I met an artist Peggy Eras who was looking for a new location for her “student” sculptor at the end of 2018. We were very honored to receive the first group in May 2019 and it was great. So much inspiration, so many beautiful things and such fantastic people. Several groups have already been housed on the Blagour and we hope to be able to do this for years to come.
Peggy Eras has her studio and exhibition garden KEIGAAF in Hilversum. She works with various types of stone, but serpentine has her preference because it produces surprising color shades every time. She also participates in various art events and there is many of her experimental art scattered throughout the Netherlands.
Finally, I have to report that the “students” themselves are also great artists. The images and woodwork that I have seen are beautiful.

Ceramic
I have been working with clay since my childhood. Once in France I joined an art foundation and we exhibit a few times a year. There is also a room here where oeuvres are sold. Upon request, I give our guests the opportunity to work creatively in the morning or afternoon. Materials and oven are available here.
