This was a real highlight of our time in Hoi An. Both parents and kids (so from 7 to 55 years old!) got completely absorbed in doing the woodwork. Just enough help from the experts. Highly recommended.
We had a family day here on a very rainy day in hoi an. What an amazing sanctuary of a place. We painted some wooden pieces and my kid absolutely loved it tho she did spoil mine which broke me ;)
A wonderful calming experience. We very much enjoyed the painting workshop. My 3 year old loved painting her wooden butterfly. You have the opportunity to pick a beautifully carved wooden sculpture, paint it and take it home. The little village is full of studios and people making and carving. Great to watch and you can purchase if you wish. You can also buy a juice. A very enjoyable morning especially for children. You can just turn up and don’t need to do a tour for this. You are very welcomed by the people working here

This place is amazing! Firstly the staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive. My two sons signed up for a workshop and it was sensational! The level of support they received during the workshop was just the best (my boys are 12 and 9 years old). The level of challenge in the session was so well pitched and the boys learned so much. The woodwork available to view and purchase was so good and being able to observe the staff making and creating was also very cool. The facility is located in a very beautiful location, surrounded by rice fields and bike tracks. Overall a fantastic experience and highly recommended for children who like to make things and enjoy hands on experiences.

I am grateful to the owner here for creating a wonderful space for the family. For those who love outdoor space, a spacious space for children, and fresh air, this is the number 1 address in Hoi An.

Very unique experience working with local carpenters to create wooden art and painting courses. Excellent time working together as a family and learning new skill. Beautiful property filled with recycled wooden art. Worth a visit for workshop or just tour of art galleries.

The wood carving workshop is so much fun, we would love to do it again! We can very much recommend it

Our visit to the carving workshop was amazing! My 13 year old daughter and I love artistic activities and have always wanted to try carving wood so when we found out there was a traditional workshop in Hoi An we were delighted to sign up

Highly recommended for Sunday funday, interactive workshop, many activities for kids. Family with toddlers friendly. Better to make a reservation in advance

Beautiful space with beautiful artworks! As an artist I can personally vouch for this place. It's a refreshing getaway from the hustle of the Old Town... The staff are very friendly and attentive. Great place for family gathers, visitors who are interested in cultural activities off the beaten path.
A large exhibition of wood sculptures in different form of Vietnamese culture, specifically Quang Nam culture in the middle of paddy field.
Highly recommend if you want to understand how to add value and preserve the cultural values along with environment.
