WerkStadtMuseum: Water, Urban Life and Creative Work Observation in Duisburg

On May 23, 2026, the Culture and City History Museum Duisburg invites you to a family-friendly edition of WerkStadtMuseum. Under the title Polluted yet Alive – Water as a Habitat of Our City, this format combines museum education, aesthetic experience, and nature-related cultural education into a vivid art experience.

A Museum Appointment Between Research and Imagination

The WerkStadtMuseum series is aimed at both large and small visitors who want to think with their hands and discover with their eyes. Between painting, drawing, building, and crafting, an open exhibition atmosphere emerges, where art education and playful research intertwine. The focus on water, shore zones, and urban living spaces provides a sensitive access to ecology and urban history.

Material, Color, and Observation

What is particularly appealing is the educational approach: Different materials and techniques invite participants to make forms of nature and city visible. From observing water bodies, lines, structures, and surfaces emerge; from observation comes design. This unfolds a low-threshold access to art, environment, and urban memory culture.

For Families, the Curious, and Young Explorers

The event is part of the museum's creative family offerings. No prior knowledge is required, and participation is included in the museum admission fee. This makes WerkStadtMuseum an ideal destination for anyone who wants to combine an inspiring exhibition visit with practical museum work.

Conclusion

Anyone wanting to experience Duisburg from a new perspective will find a vibrant interplay of exhibition, workshop, and urban observation here. The WerkStadtMuseum promises an enlightening afternoon with cultural depth and immediate practice. A visit is highly recommended.
