Koza Dereza master classes

Master classes

Visiting a living workshop

We invite children and adults to the Koza Dereza workshop in Ternopil — the place where Ukrainian handmade toys, souvenirs and décor are born every day.

The living Koza Dereza workshop in Ternopil

During the master class participants see the production from the inside, get to know the process of creating the pieces and paint a toy or souvenir with their own hands to take home.

  • For whom: schools, kindergartens, summer camps, tourist groups, birthdays, corporate events.
  • Duration: approximately 1.5 hours.
  • Location: Koza Dereza workshop, Ternopil.
  • Format: tour + master class + finished piece to take home.

For whom

We offer activities for different groups

Schools & kindergartens

For classes and children's groups who want not just a tour but a living, creative experience. Children will see how the workshop works, try themselves as young artists and take home a toy painted with their own hands.

Summer camps

For camps whose programme leaves room not only for movement and adventure, but also for quiet creative joy. Children slow down for a moment, imagine, paint toys and take a piece of their summer with them.

Corporate events

For teams who want to spend time together not on work tasks but in an atmosphere of creativity and real connection. It's a team-building activity that needs no long preparation. The team comes together — and leaves with a souvenir they made themselves. Not just another corporate party, but an experience that will decorate the home for a long time.

Tourists

A local Ternopil workshop where souvenirs are born every day. You can watch it happen — and take home what you made with your own hands.

What the master class includes: an organised activity, all the necessary materials, guidance from a craftsperson and a finished souvenir made by hand.

How a master class goes at Koza Dereza

How the master class goes

1
We welcome the guests. We choose a convenient date, format and location: you come to us or we come to you. Everything is ready: materials, workstations, an artist.
2
Tour of the production. Participants see how toys are really born: from the blank to the finished souvenir. A living workshop, all the processes and techniques, and real artists.
3
Master class with an artist. Everyone paints their own toy — with tips and support from our craftsperson.
4
Tea and a toy to take home. Once the toys are painted, we invite you to a short tea break. It's time to rest, share emotions and take your finished souvenir home.

Duration: 1.5 hours. An unhurried creative format with everything you need: from materials and a craftsperson's guidance to a finished toy at the end.

Guests who have already visited our workshop

“I haven't seen children so engaged in a long time. Even those who usually lose interest quickly stayed until the end and finished their work. And after the master class the parents wrote that at home the children were still showing their toys and telling how they made them))”

— a 4th-grade teacher

“We wanted to do something for the team more interesting than yet another quest or dinner. And we are simply delighted! We got a lot of emotions, group photos and even a little contest for the best toy.”

— company HR manager

“I was very worried about the organisation, but everything went smoothly. Everything was organised, the materials were prepared and the children got involved in the process right away.”

— summer camp organiser
