Over three days, a daily workshop on the poet James Krüss takes place from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

James Krüss, who would have turned 100 on 31 May 2026, created a classic of children’s literature together with illustrator Lisl Stich: the picture book Henriette Bimmelbahn.

Accompanied by LesArt educators Götz Drope and Lorenzo Pennacchietti, children set off with Henriette on a journey into a day full of adventures. Ringing and rattling, clattering and chugging, steaming and hissing, jolting and rolling — off we go!

For school classes only, registration is required: info@lesart.org
Recommended for ages 6 and up.

A joint event by LesArt and Haus für Poesie.
