In less than three years from now, the Jefferson Lab upgrade will be completed, allowing to deliver energies up to 12 GeV. During the same time span, several new detectors will be installed in Hall B, transforming the existing CLAS spectrometer into a new apparatus, CLAS12. The workshop will offer the opportunity to learn about the CLAS12 spectrometer, its baseline equipment and additional detectors that will extend its capabilities. The current physics program as well as new possible directions will be presented and discussed. The goal of the workshop is also to strengthen existing ties and to foster new relationships between Jefferson Lab and European physicists interested in the 12 GeV physics program. Parallel to the 12 GeV equipment and physics, highlights from the current physics program at 6 GeV will be presented, as well as some intersections of the current and future program with experiments conducted or planned at other facilities.
