Events in the public space

MEHR-SPRACH-ICH explores a new map of Berlin Pankow from a diverse perspective. In this event we will present for the first time the format “AUDIOTHEKA” and we will perform a POP-UP screen printing action.

AUDIOTHEKA is a digital audio archive in which the residents of Pankow experiment with different ways of storytelling and discovering sounds of the city. Artists and residents of Buch and Karow explore the urban environment and the personal stories associated with it.

There will be a POP-UP screen printing workshop where we invite people of all ages to experiment with this technique. If you come with enough time we invite you to create your own design. 

Bring your favourite clothes or textile where you want to print!

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday 23.05. from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Bucher Bürgerhaus (Franz-Schmidt-Straße 8 – 10, 13125 Berlin) The event is free of charge and registration is not required.

For All Children – Play, Move, Be Creative.

In collaboration with our local partners BENN Buch, we are once again presenting our mobile screen printing workshop. No prior experience is required. Just bring along clothes you’d like to print on!

MEHR-SPRACH-ICH explores fresh perspectives and stories about life in Pankow. Through workshops and events, the project puts the diversity of Pankow’s people at the center of public interest.
