Step into the hands-on world of natural soap making and unlock an ancient, earth-centered craft. In this workshop, you’ll learn to create eco-friendly soaps using natural ingredients — each bar infused with nourishing herbs, spices, essential oils, and enchanting resins like amber, bringing the healing power of nature into your daily life.

Gabrielė will guide you through the time-honored techniques of cold-process soap making, using ingredients that are gentle on your skin and kind to the planet. But this workshop is about more than just soap — it’s about creating magic. You’ll explore colors, fragrances, and botanicals, blending them into one-of-a-kind creations.

As oils and lye combine in the beautiful chemical dance of saponification, you’ll witness the transformation and become part of a shared creative process. Every bar is a little surprise, a unique reflection of nature, intention, and your hands at work.

By the end, you’ll leave with a handmade soap imbued with the magic of the earth — a playful, mindful, and truly creative experience.

Through a sequence of prompts, participants will write their way through a confrontation with mortality and meaning, using the page to strip away what doesn't matter and name what does. The session moves between solitary writing and shared reflection in pairs or small groups. This is a hands-on writing practice, so participants are asked to bring their own pen and notebook. No prior writing experience is required - only a willingness to be honest.

RopeLab is an introduction to rope access techniques - the methods used to ascend and move safely on ropes in environments such as trees, mountains, industrial structures, caves, and many other places where ropes become your pathway.

During the workshop, participants will learn the basics of rope access, including knot tying, carabiner use, and essential safety principles. Those who feel adventurous can put on a climbing harness and experience a supervised ascent up to 12 metres high using a top-rope belay system.

Expect a playful mix of learning and challenge: slacklines, tree swings, team-building activities, knot-tying and carabiner installation competitions, and engaging talks about ropes, climbing, and life above the ground.

Whether you're curious about climbing, looking to learn a new skill, or simply want to try something different, RopeLab is a chance to get off the ground and discover what ropes can do.

Mauricijus Prapiestis has been climbing since 2014 and has spent years ascending all kinds of structures and natural formations - from rocks and trees to offshore oil rigs and wind turbines. Through RopeLab, he shares the skills, techniques, and unique experience of moving on ropes, inviting participants to discover the excitement of climbing and the perspective that comes from seeing the world from above.

Get your hands on a playful, hands-on project that’s good for you and the planet! In this workshop, we’ll turn leftover cherry pits into cozy, little pillows — simple, soothing tools you can make yourself.

This activity is part of the Dovanok Vyšnią project, a community initiative that transforms cherry pits into meaningful, therapeutic tools while promoting care, sustainability, and connection.

It’s all about creativity, connection, and care: sew, fill, and shape your pillow while sitting together, sharing ideas, and enjoying the simple magic of making something with your own hands. Give new life to cherry pits, be part of an eco-conscious community, and leave with a little piece of comfort you made yourself. Fun, mindful, and good for the earth — don’t miss it!

Join three friends for a fun and creative festival styling workshop designed to help you get ready for Yaga. Two of the hosts specialize in face painting and festival makeup, while the third shares simple and beautiful braiding techniques. You will learn how to create your own festival look through face art, braids, or a combination of both.

The workshop is beginner-friendly and focuses on easy techniques that can be recreated throughout the festival. Those who would like to practice face painting are encouraged to bring a friend to paint on, or a mirror if they prefer to work on themselves. All skill levels are welcome.

""Rave elf"" As the sun goes down and the dancefloor comes alive, a rave elf will be waiting near the stage to add a touch of magic to festival faces. Using UV-reactive paints that glow under blacklight, participants can receive unique face art designed to shine throughout the night. Whether they missed the daytime styling workshops or simply feel inspired in the moment, everyone is welcome to stop by and transform their look for the evening while dancing.

Nick is a visual artist and creative facilitator with over 12 years of experience in the arts. In recent years, his work has shifted toward exploring the emotional and symbolic side of creativity — where image becomes reflection, and artistic expression becomes a way to connect with the inner world. His workshop, Talismans of Consciousness, offers a space for self-reflection through intuitive painting. Participants are invited to paint two sides of a symbolic wooden object — one guided by intuition, the other shaped by intention. What begins as spontaneous color and form often takes on deeper personal meaning. The process helps participants slow down, notice what’s present, and express themselves in a quiet, symbolic way. By the end of the session, they leave with a unique object — and often, a clearer sense of where they are and what they wish to carry with them. No art skills are needed — just an open mind and a willingness to explore. This is a space for reflection, expression, and quiet transformation.

Enter a laboratory where people transform one another. Here everyone becomes both a researcher and a test subject: creating unexpected looks, shapes, and colors while experimenting without rules. Will you dare to take the creative risk and embrace an outcome no one can predict? This is a 360° experiment where courage to try is all that matters. The experiment might end with a burst of color — a paint-splash moment sparked by a creative lab accident. Be prepared: you may need a plastic cover, a poncho, or clothes you don’t mind sacrificing. And who knows — maybe you will be the one to draw the BOMB card and trigger the color reaction for everyone.

Step into the world of playful creativity and let nature be your guide. In this workshop, you’ll gather plants and other treasures from the land that inspire you, and transform them into prints on paper or textiles.

Explore magical, light-based techniques like cyanotype and turmeric printing, or dive into simpler, hands-on methods such as pressing plants and studying shapes and textures. A gentle invitation to see, touch, and create with the gifts of the earth, letting your imagination flow freely.

Step into the quiet wisdom of the meadow and meet the plants that have supported humans for generations.

In this workshop you’ll smell, taste, and experience the gentle medicine of local herbs, discovering how they nourish both body and spirit. We’ll explore how to harvest wisely in changing environments and how to honour the land through mindful, sustainable practices. A soft invitation to reconnect with nature’s rhythms—and to give back to the earth that gives so much.

Step into a playful ritual of color and transformation. Body marbling is a form of temporary body art where flowing patterns are created on the surface of water and then gently transferred onto the skin using non-toxic, skin-safe paints.

Each design begins as a living composition on water — pigments swirling, expanding, and meeting one another in unexpected ways. You choose your color palette, set an intention if you wish, and watch as your unique pattern takes shape. When a hand, arm, or other chosen body part is slowly dipped beneath the surface, the design instantly embraces the skin — vivid, organic, and entirely one of a kind.

No two prints are ever the same. The process carries a sense of surprise and surrender, inviting creativity, presence, and a little bit of magic. It’s a moment of co-creation between you, the elements, and chance.

Kavatūta invites you into the fragrant, grounding world of coffee alchemy — where nothing is wasted, and everything can be transformed. Every day, countless cups of coffee are brewed and their grounds forgotten. Here, we give them a second life. Blending minimalism, ecology, and art, we shape coffee into tactile, earthy amulets that carry both intention and beauty.

In this workshop, you’ll create your own coffee-ceramic talisman infused with Baltic symbols — the ancient encoded language of our ancestors. These signs speak of nature, harmony, cycles, and connection; they hold the quiet wisdom of forests, fields, and the living world. Working with them invites you to slow down, reconnect, and remember where we come from.

Expect a gentle, sensory experience: the warmth of the material in your hands, the grounding scent of roasted earth, the soft massage of shaping and smoothing. It’s a meditative flow, a little ritual of care, and a chance to meet your inner creator.

The session is guided by Gabija Medeinė, founder of the ecological design studio Kavatūta — an artist, maker, and keeper of coffee’s hidden magic.

This is not a beauty workshop.

This is an experiment in identity, form, and surrender.
“Mutation” is a live transformation lab where you become the subject of the experiment. You arrive as you are – and leave as an unexpected version of yourself. The final result is unknown, even to the creators.
Asymmetry. Chaos. Structure. Organic forms.
Minimal or excessive.
A face as a map. Hair as a signal.
This is not about looking “beautiful” –
it’s about experience, state, and transformation.

In this hands-on session, you’ll learn how to decorate your skin — or a friend’s — in a way that feels authentic, playful, and connected to the moment. A relaxed space to get creative, experiment, and carry a bit of artistry with you into the festival.

As the sun goes down and the dancefloor comes alive, a rave elf will be waiting near the stage to add a touch of magic to festival faces.

Location: Duskwood

Create something both practical and personal. In this workshop, you’ll learn traditional cord‑weaving techniques and create survival bracelets that are as useful as they are beautiful.

With simple knots and natural cord, each bracelet becomes a small piece of craftsmanship, a keepsake, or a reminder of your time in the woods. The process is meditative, hands-on, and open to all - no experience needed.

Join in, weave alongside others, and let your fingers follow the rhythm of the forest as you create, connect, and carry a piece of Yaga home with you.

There is something ancient and meditative in the meeting of wax, fabric, and flowing colour. In this batik workshop, Raminta - the artist behind Spalvota Saulė - invites you into a slow, tactile creative process where patience and play move side by side.

Batik is a traditional textile art in which patterns are formed through layers of wax and dye. The wax resists the colour, the pigment travels where it can, and the unexpected becomes part of the design. Nothing is rushed. Each layer asks for presence. Each piece carries the trace of your hands, your mood, your moment at Yaga.

Raminta’s teaching style is warm and encouraging, rooted in years of working with colour and community. You’ll be gently introduced to the basics of batik technique and guided through creating your own small textile artwork. No previous experience is needed - only curiosity and a willingness to experiment.

This workshop is a space to slow down, to work with your hands, and to let colour speak in its own language.
