Events in Nottuln

For the third time in a row, a STEIN-BILDHAUEREI WORKSHOP will be held in the farm garden on the ALTER HOF SCHOPPMANN site in 48301 Nottuln-Darup. The instructor, TENDAI RUKODZI, is an artist and stone sculptor who comes to Münsterland from Zimbabwe. The TiRiPo African Art project was launched jointly by Berthold Ochtrup (Nottuln-Darup) and Tendai Rukdozi in 2019. The aim is to support local artists (sculptors, metalworkers and carvers) and their families. In the workshop, participants will learn more about the sculpting process in Zimbabwe from the internationally recognised Tendai Rukodzi (born 1973). The stone sculptures are created through communication with the serpentine stone to be worked, which only exists in Zimbabwe. This stone is considerably harder than our Baumberg sandstone. This stone also comes in different colours. The workshop offers: Springstone, Serpentine (green, brown), Dolomite, Leopard Rock and Opal.

Once a month between May and September, the inner courtyard of the town hall on Domherrengasse is transformed into a cosy place to get together and enjoy yourself. Mountain String Band will provide good music.

Workshop content:

With their drawings, urban sketchers try to show places and life as they perceive it with their eyes. Urban sketching also sees itself as a kind of counter-movement to fast consumption. A photo is taken quickly, a drawing slows things down. If we also try to put the feeling for a place/people into words, we realise our own deeper expression through the search for words.

Lecturer: Anke Maria Zandman. Freelance artist, art teacher and editor.

The idea behind the courtyard concerts is to organise music in unusual locations to create a special offering in the Nottuln districts.

This year, the farm concert will take place at the picturesque Schulze Hauling farm with its historic sandstone buildings (Heller 19, Nottuln).

Tickets are available in advance from Dettener Dorfladen (Roxeler Straße 10, 48301 Nottuln-Schapdetten), Buchhandlung Esplör (Stiftsplatz 10, 48301 Nottuln) and the municipality of Nottuln (Stiftsplatz 7/8, 48301 Nottuln).

It has been held annually since 2007 and is becoming increasingly popular not only in the village, but also in the region and beyond.
The "Daruper Landpartie" brings together various artists and their different works at numerous locations in the village of Darup on a weekend in August. This year it will take place on Saturday 17 August from 1 - 6 pm and on Sunday 18 August from 11 am - 6 pm.

Art, culture and culinary delights combine to form an attractive whole in the wonderful landscape of the Baumberge. An annually changing local history theme presents the history of the village of Darup.

The number of exhibiting artists has grown, as has the number of exhibition and event venues. Interesting supporting programmes were added with readings, singing and guided tours - and to everyone's delight, the number of visitors also grew.
