and many other individuals. Now in operation are three kilns (raku,

regular classes will be open to visitors from May 1 to September 15,

ARTS and CRAFTS WORKSHOP, AALBORG, DENMARK
July 16 - 29, 1967.

Danish Design and Handicraft has won many friends abroad. Fora
number of years The Danish Institute has organized theoretical study
courses for teachers and instructors, interior and industrial designers,
in cooperation with the annual Scandinavian Design Cavaleade. Many of
the participants have suggested the establishment of a practical work-
shop giving them an opportunity to work with Danish colleagues in their
special field and share with them experience and new ideas. The
present project is an attempt to answer this appeal.

The workshop will include lectures on Danish arts and crafts traditions,
modern developments and the teaching of arts and crafts. Weaver
Franka Rasmussen, ceramist Jens Peter Regenberg and artists Ib
Thorap and Herrik Kjelds will lead panel discussions. There will be a

number of full-day workshops, Excursions to points of local interest
yall also be organized from time to time.
