With festive snacks, warm drinks and specialised paints to hand, you’ll learn how to turn humble baubles into sparkling mini-masterpieces – whether that’s swirly patterns, tiny winter scenes or a message designed to make someone grin. No experience needed – just show up, sip, paint and revel in the cosy chaos. You’ll head home with handmade ornaments perfect for your own tree or for gifting to that friend who swears they don’t want presents. *Use code “Gamma” at checkout to unwrap a jolly 10% off your workshop ticket.* [https://estonianworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/image.jpeg](https://estonianworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/image.jpeg) ### **[Terminal Short Film Screening](https://www.facebook.com/events/1149374903982636/?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22mechanism%22%3A%22discovery_custom_tab%22%2C%22surface%22%3A%22bookmark%22%7D]%2C%22ref_notif_type%22%3Anull%7D)** ![Location-Emoji-Symbol](https://omgsymbol.com/download/location/02/original/logo.jpg) Telliskivi 60/2, Tallinn ![calendario. vector de icono de calendario. icono de calendario signo ...](https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fstatic.vecteezy.com%2Fsystem%2Fresources%2Fpreviews%2F007%2F683%2F531%2Fnon_2x%2Fcalendar-calendar-icon-calendar-icon-simple-sign-calendar-symbol-free-vector.jpg&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=8a303de132784c01077af7cde6b0dfcee73eb925ede4c723cbb6343db65ad675) Thursday, 4 December, from 7 PM A short film screening hosted by Terminal Records & Bar and Maros Pulscak is on the horizon, featuring a lineup of independent shorts that pack far more punch than their runtimes suggest. Grab your friends, grab a seat and settle in for four memorable films – *Roots Unearthed*, *Eyes That Stare Too Long*, *Play Repeat* and *Christmas Day*. The filmmakers will be on hand for a brief Q&A, giving you the chance to peek behind the curtain and hear what really went into bringing these stories to life. It’s a relaxed, curious, story-filled evening that invites you to watch, wonder and maybe even spot your new favourite director.

The day kicks off with an overview of the country’s media landscape by Andres Jõesaar, followed by a coffee break (because even media discussions run on caffeine), and then a conversation between Jõesaar and journalist Neeme Raud about reporting both at home and abroad. Later, Katrin Sigijane leads an interactive workshop on how images, sound and storytelling can bend a message – and yes, you’ll even get to create your own TV news segment. The event is in English, open to all, but places are limited, so registration is required. Expect insight, hands-on learning and a behind-the-scenes peek at how the stories around us are built.

The Embassy of Ireland is opening its doors for a cosy, family-friendly festive gathering, complete with snacks, refreshments and that warm “Irish winter magic” vibe.
