About Zeichenfabrik
A Space for Art, Community, and the Courage to Make Your Mark.
More than Just an Art School
Since 2009, Zeichenfabrik has been a welcoming place, a creative free space where people come together to learn, create, and connect. We firmly believe that creativity is a universal skill that lies within each of us. Our mission is to ignite this spark, foster artistic development, and make creative processes accessible to all—in an environment defined by appreciation and the joy of making.


Against the Cult of Genius!
We stand for the democratization of creativity. The notion that originality and artistic expression are the privilege of a select few "geniuses" has no place here. Creativity is not a mysterious myth, but a skill that can be cultivated. It not only enriches our own lives but also gives us the tools to face challenges with new perspectives.
