Discover the beauty of Switzerland and unleash your creativity through an Art Workation, a unique and immersive art-making experience of digital nomading, wall painting, hiking in beautiful nature, and amazing community.
About Our Art Workation
Inspired by the idea of turning the Coliving Adrenaline, an old-fashioned building nestled in the breathtaking Swiss mountains, into a collaborative work of art, we've created a unique playground. This mountain retreat offers an opportunity for people to come together and collaborate on a large-scale project in a stunning location.
Our 6-week art workation program is tailored to boost the artistic abilities of digital nomads and volunteers of all skill levels. You'll have the chance to explore new mediums and techniques and connect with like-minded individuals in the scenic Braunwald, which is conveniently located just 1.5 hours away from Zurich by train.
