This unique workshop reveals the true value of personalised gifts. While giving to someone else we contribute towards our own wellbeing. We grow creatively and collectively, become closer to our friends & family when we have to pull resources together to create something special. Meaningful gifts enrich our lives and create new memories.

“A wonderful gift may not be wrapped as you expect.” ― Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Being an events organiser and entertainer, as a part of the workshop, Yana invites you to explore a new way of giving. Your present can look like a surprise party, a joke turned into an adventure, personalised city treasure hunt, short film, flashmob or a music video made with your family or friends.
