Mamison invites you to a new workshop on creating a handmade book.

On Saturday, February 14, the resort will host a workshop on creating a zine—a hand-made publication featuring personal impressions of a mountain vacation. Enrollment is currently open.

The workshop will be led by Polina Likhacheva, editor of the resort's channel and organizer of blog tours, an art festival, and other creative events at Mamison.

"A zine is a personalized mini-magazine. Participants will experience the entire process from scratch: from the idea and text to images, layout, and hand-assembly, printing their favorite photos, assembling collages, trying linocuts, and making their own stamps," explains the author.

The "Slow Life Workshop" project launched on February 7. It is a series of intimate events at various locations throughout the resort, designed to immerse participants in creativity, new skills, and a slower pace in the beautiful Mamison Gorge.

Registration for the first meeting with photographer Rada Sadygova closed within the first few hours. The conceptual photography workshop attracted 20 participants from Vladikavkaz, Nalchik, Pyatigorsk, Grozny, Makhachkala, and even St. Petersburg. Tatyana from St. Petersburg came for her birthday, looking for a new experience. Gulshat came with her husband: he to go skiing, and she to relax.

Among the participants were both professional photographers and those who only shoot with their phones. They shared one common thread: the desire to see and feel more.

"Rebooting, slowing down, and a creative boost—it all happened. When you take pictures, you feel like you're outside of time," the participants shared.

The project organizers—the Kavkaz.RF communications team—are planning a culinary meeting with Mercada chef Marina Kozonova, a bookshelf opening from the "Po Slogam" project by Anna Yanchevskaya and Victoria Malakhova (Kim), and musical and creative experiments.
