The chimeric workshop is a workshop of engraving, art and artistic expressions, come discover it freely.

Equipped with an old print press (1900) entirely in cast iron that belonged to the Parisian printer, Mr Cappelle and on which many artists worked with him, the chimeric workshop is located in the historic heart of Metz, in the village Taison. Thanks to its window overlooking the street, the workshop encourages a lively relationship between artists and passers-by messins or tourists, even profane. The chimeric workshop wants to be a guarantor in the practice and the transmission of an ancient know-how, the engraving in soft cut (etching, aquatint, black way, dry point, monotype etc...) but which also reconciles a more contemporary approach in current printing techniques. The workshop is open all week from Tuesday to Saturday, from 3pm to 6pm and also allows other artists practicing engraving or other artistic techniques such as painting, watercolor, sculpture... to promote their work. Poetry holds a special place in the chimeric workshop: it is the common thread between all the disciplines practiced and the look of the other. It is the source of inspiration that reflects the inner and outer reality of all.
