Off the grid, on purpose

Dworek Saraswati sits in the woods near Świeradów-Zdrój, 5 km from Stacja Wolimierz — the region behind one of Poland’s most respected experimental music festivals. No city noise, no commute, no distractions. Just studio time, good food, and a small group of people making music for a week.

Studio & nature

Classrooms and studio space inside a historic manor house, surrounded by forest and open grounds — including a Steinway on site.

A live performance, every night

One faculty member plays each evening, in the garden or indoors depending on weather — six nights, six sets.

Ayurvedic full board

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included, prepared on-site — no grocery runs, no cooking, no distance from the group.

How the week runs

Arrival Monday evening, departure Sunday afternoon. Classes run Tuesday through Saturday.

Daytime — studio & workshops

10:00–13:00 and 16:00–19:00, Tuesday to Saturday. Small groups, direct access to faculty, hands-on the whole way through.

Evenings — live sets

One faculty performance every night, Monday to Saturday, in the garden or indoors. Free time to swim, walk to Czarna Kopa viewpoint, or just sit by the fire.

Faculty

Seven artists on site for the full week, teaching and performing — one new set every night.
