About us

Fundacja Sztuka Szczęścia was founded out of a need to create a haven where everyone can reconnect with their inner harmony and catch a breath from the noise and rush of daily life.

The name translates to The Art of Happiness – and that's what we’re all about: helping people discover the art of living in alignment with themselves, their emotions and their values.

The Foundation was established by a Mother and Daughter – two women united by a shared mission: to inspire, to support personal growth, and to remind others that we all carry within us the strength to spread our wings and live authentically. In a world overflowing with haste and sensory overload, we support those who feel overwhelmed, experience social isolation, or seek balance after going through difficult times.

In our work, we combine the creative process of art therapy with mindfulness practices and soothing contact with nature. Through visual expression, crafts, upcycling, or simply taking time to pause, we help release emotions, rebuild self-worth, and reconnect with one's inner self.

We believe that harmony starts both within and around us. That’s why we care not only about emotional wellbeing, but also the world we live in.

We promote forest bathing, natural materials, and low-waste creative strategies that support sustainable living and responsible art-making.



Art is happiness. Let’s create it together.

Workshops

Our sessions are not like typical art workshops where you’re expected to create something “pretty” – here, no one judges you. What truly matters to us is the creative process, your emotions, and the atmosphere we create together. Each workshop combines artistic expression with mindfulness and gentle reflection, allowing for personal development in a pleasant and accessible way.

You’ll learn to see yourself and the world from a different perspective – regaining a sense of calm and emotional balance.

Generation ART

“Generation ART – Intergenerational Academy of Art and Craft” is our new initiative to combat social isolation and its impact on mental health.

Despite being digitally connected, children and teenagers increasingly experience loneliness, struggle with communication and forming relationships. Meanwhile, older adults face health or technological barriers.

Our project brings generations together in a creative environment, helping to build meaningful connections and strengthen a sense of community.

Volunteering

We actively promote the idea of volunteering and offer participants opportunities for growth through training in communication, event planning, and working with different age groups.

We believe that sharing knowledge empowers others – enriching their social and organisational skills, and increasing their chances of becoming long-term changemakers in their communities.

Bio Art

We believe that nature is the best source of inspiration and materials. We teach how to create in tune with the rhythm of the natural world.

We dry plants for collages and herbariums, make handmade paper from plant leftovers, create ceramics with crushed eggshells, and experiment with natural dyes.

We also introduce forest bathing as a way to experience mindful presence and creative stillness. This is more than just craft – it’s a return to simplicity, a connection with the natural world, and a celebration of conscious, intentional living.
