The Krampus: A Blacklight Reactive Cut Paper Monster Lab Workshop

Difficulty Rating = 8 out of 10 (It's pretty darn challenging)

There is no required level of artistic talent or training needed, but you must have a very delicate touch and a complex puzzle-solving level of patience.

The Krampus: A Blacklight Reactive Cut Paper Monster Lab Workshop is a wildly entertaining, hands-on art experience that blends folklore, immersive theater, and guided paper crafting into one unforgettable event. Led by the hilariously unhinged Professor Doctor Von Weirdo and his long-suffering assistant Brian, participants create a richly layered blacklight reactive cut-paper Krampus artwork step by step—no prior art experience required.

In this 1.5-hour interactive workshop, guests learn about the dark Alpine legend of Krampus while assembling a striking blacklight reactive mixed-media paper monster using precision-cut pieces, glue techniques, and design layering. Expect humor, theatrical storytelling, sound effects, and plenty of festive mischief, as you layer horns, hooves, snowflakes, skulls, and monstrous eyes into a finished piece you’ll be proud to display.

Perfect for art lovers, folklore fans, creative workshops lovers, and unique seasonal activities enthusiasts, this Krampus art class is equal parts craft lab, performance, and monster-making celebration. Leave with a completed artwork and a deeper love of weird traditions!

You will be working with Elmer's glue and card stock for this experience. Everything is nontoxic, and all materials will be provided.

Some of the pieces are delicate, and you will be operating with tweezers on some small, intricate pieces, so a light touch with dexterious, nimble fingers is recommended.

Because of the fragile nature of some of the pieces and steps of this workshop, it is not recommended for children under 15.

ATTN: This workshop experience will have some loud noises, flashing lights, blacklights, lazer lights, campy cheeseball humor, and weirdos. If you have issues with any of these things, you may want to skip this one.
