The Language Café is primarily aimed at people who are struggling with their mental health which can make it hard to go to regular courses. We want to create a safe space for everyone to learn and practise without pressure. Everyone is welcome! Please try to be on time so we can all get started together :) We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German. The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life.

Every wine has a story. Tonight, you create yours. **Paint the Label** is the first edition of the **Cozy Winter Sessions**, an intimate winter gathering where creativity becomes a way to connect with others. A label is more than an image. It’s a story, an identity, a first impression. It speaks before words do, on a bottle and sometimes in life. You’ll be welcomed with a glass of wine, thoughtfully selected and introduced by our Sommelier, with the chance to choose your preferred variety with non-alcoholic options and all materials provided. It’s a relaxed and open invitation to paint, enjoy a glass of wine and discover new stories among new faces. As the evening unfolds, each label becomes a conversation. The space opens to share what inspired each creation and the story behind it. At the end of the evening, you’ll take your label with you, a small piece of the night that can later live on a bottle or simply remain as a memory. A warm winter evening shaped by expression, conversation and presence. Additional drinks and tapas: available for purchase at the venue (including non-alcoholic options).

Erlebe einen Workshop, in dem Zirkuskunst und Fotografie auf neue Weise zusammenfinden: In einem vollständig abdunkelbaren Tanzstudio schaffen wir die ideale Umgebung, um die Magie von Lichtmalerei mit der Dynamik von verschiedenen Zirkusdisziplinen zu verbinden. Zu Beginn erhältst du eine Einführung in die Grundlagen der Langzeitbelichtung. Perfekt für alle, die bisher wenig oder keine Erfahrung damit haben. Schritt für Schritt steigern wir den Anspruch: Von ersten Experimenten mit Licht und Bewegung bis hin zu gemeinsamen Bildideen, in denen Artist:innen und das Requisit Licht kreativ miteinander verschmelzen. Dieser Workshop lädt dazu ein, Neues auszuprobieren, Techniken zu verfeinern und Bilder zu schaffen, die weit über klassische Zirkus- oder Fotomomente hinausgehen. Was dich erwartet: Bei diesem Workshop habt ihr die Gelegenheit, das Gelernte direkt auszuprobieren, Fotos zu machen und Feedback zu bekommen. Inhalte, auf die wir uns konzentrieren, sind: * Grundlagen und Feinheiten verschiedener Zirkusdisziplinen – verständlich erklärt und aus fotografischer Perspektive gedacht * Akrobatik, Jonglage oder Tricks auf dem Einrad? Wie bei einer echten Zirkus-Show bekommst du hier das volle Programm * Lichtmalerei mal anders: Ob Keulen, Bälle, Lichtstäbe oder Poi - die Bewegungen und Lichtprogramme eröffnen ganz neue kreative Möglichkeiten, die es gemeinsam zu entdecken gilt. Was sonst noch wichtig ist: * Dauer: 3 Stunden * Ort: Ufer Studios Berlin, Uferstraße 23, 13357 Berlin * Treffpunkt: Wir treffen uns pünktlich am Eingangstor * Datum und Uhrzeit: Tag 24\.01\.2026 \| 11\-14 Uhr * Models: Paula + Jonas * Preis: 87,50€ * Max. Anzahl Teilnehmer:innen: 10 *Aktuell sind noch 2 Tickets verfügbar.* Was du mitbringen solltest: * Kamera + Objektiv * Optional Stativ * Eigenes Blitz-Equipment kann mitgebracht werden, ist aber nur eingeschränkt nutzbar, da wir uns gegenseitig nicht beeinträchtigen wollen.

Die Vermittlung von Blitzfotografie ist kein Teil des Workshops. Ideal für Fotograf:innen mit Interesse an Bewegung, Show und Kunst. Vorkenntnisse sind kein Muss.

If you’ve ever wondered how to paint with watercolours but didn’t quite dare to start, this class is for you. **Begin the year with a relaxed and creative introduction to watercolour, specifically designed for beginners and curious creatives.** In this workshop, we’ll explore the essentials of watercolour painting: how water and pigment interact, how transparency works, and how to control (and enjoy) the unexpected effects that water can create. **We’ll practice wet-on-wet techniques, layering washes, creating soft textures, and playful effects using salt, splashes, and lifting colour**. Most importantly, we’ll focus on letting go, experimenting, and building confidence with the medium. No previous experience needed—just curiosity and a willingness to explore. This class is about learning the basics while enjoying the process and discovering your own creative flow. ### **Fridays 16 - 23 January** from 6:00 to 7:30 PM **In Friedrichshain**, Berlin (exact address by e-mail) Join us for one or both classes, as you prefer. They are independent but complementary. **Price:** * 27€ x class / 50€ x 2 classes Payment via PayPal / Bank transfer **Material:** Material for watercolours is very specific.
