Itinerary

Experience a three-hour immersive journey where sound, creativity and human connection come together around the agave — the pita — one of the most iconic silhouettes of the Almerían landscape. Through music, creation and active participation, you will discover alongside the “artisan of the desert” Tim Bernhardt the surprising possibilities of this extraordinary plant, known as the “plant of a thousand wonders”. This is not simply a place to observe or attend a conventional workshop. Entire families, travelers, musicians, artists, children and older people participate together in intuitive and accessible processes that awaken curiosity, conversation and genuine connection between generations. A shared space that gradually becomes a deeply human and creative experience, where agave wood reveals a warm sound and a different way of creating with your hands. Among natural aromas, musical instruments and collective creation, children lose track of time while many adults discover new ways of looking at the world around them. And the question most often heard at the end is always the same: “When are we coming back?”.
