About us
Experience Workshop – Movement for the Experience-Oriented Education of Mathematics and Arts
Experience Workshop has been started in 2008 as a collaborative effort of mathematicians, artists, toy-makers, craftsmen, teachers, parents and children. Over the years, we have grown into an open STEAM community, a professional network of educators, researchers and artists, and a creative art&science agency in the field of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) education and learning.
Experience Workshop develops educational approaches to offer opportunities for children to learn mathematics through the arts, and to create art through mathematics.
We have established International Traveling Exhibitions of Mathematical Art in Hungary and in Finland, which travel with our events. The collection includes artworks, scientific modeling tools, math-art puzzles, and other spectacular objects, which have key-role at our programs.
Experience Workshop events have been successfully organized all over in Europe, North-America and Asia. More than 30,000 people participated in our STEAM education programs.
Event Organization
STEAM education events, festivals, interactive exhibitions, workshops, conferences and seminars in Europe, Asia and America.
