Inspired by Art Basel Miami, Ludmila Christeseva welcomed young individuals aged 13–22 to explore artistic methods and techniques together in preparation for the art fair 2024. Participation was free of charge and 8 teenagers could join the program.
Materials and fika were included. The creative sessions took place from December 27 to January 7, every day from 14:00 to 17:00. Together, the teenagers formed and art collective and created unique artworks. The results of the 10 Days Art Marathon were featured on social media.
