Creative Code Stammtisch [NEW LOCATION @ Prachtsaal]
**⭐ NEW LOCATION! ⭐ PLEASE ARRIVE BEFORE 8PM! ⭐**
The Creative Code Stammtisch is a casual show-and-tell for artists, makers, designers, coders, performers, learners and anyone interested in the use of computing skills for artistic expression.
The event is free and open to all, regardless of age, origin, gender or experience. Beginners and first-timers should feel especially welcome! You don't have to be a coder yourself 😃
HOW TO FIND US?
Find Prachtsaal Studio by crossing the courtyard next to Cafe Augusta on Jonasstr. 22, 12053 Berlin. **NOTE: NEW LOCATION!**
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT?
We start with quick introductions, then open the floor to anyone who wants to present something. There are usually around six 10-minute slots available, plus time for questions from the audience. First-timers are encouraged to share their work.
Topics range from net art to computational design and interactive installations all the way to wearable electronics or generative poetry. If you’re wondering whether your own project might fit, take a look at the [Stammtisch archive](https://creativecodeberlin.github.io/Stammtisch/) to see what others have shared in the past.
This event is *not* just for coders! New-media artists and anyone working with technology in their art are very welcome to share. If you enjoy art and/or technology, you’ll likely have a great time, and maybe even learn something new!

The Epic Comedy Club Showcase: Stand up Comedy in Berlin (English-Speaking)
Book a ticket [HERE](https://www.epiccomedyberlin.com/weekly-shows?utm_source=meetup&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=epic-comedy-showcase-meetup-berlin-sales&utm_content=listing-main-v1&target=weekly-shows&show=epic-comedy-showcase&city=berlin)
A comedy extravaganza that showcases the very best veteran and up-and-coming comedic talent in Berlin.
DOORS 8:00 PM, SHOW STARTS 9:00 PM
BAR IS CASH ONLY
Join us for a night of Epic Comedy as we bring you the cream of the crop when it comes to Berlin's established and up-and-coming comedians. Our code is quality. That means no first-timers, no hobbyists, just tried and tested comedians bringing you tight sets of original comedy. We pick our comics based solely on their ability to take you from the sprawling plains of average humour and usher you through the gates of next-level hilarity.
This is a Pay-What-You Want show. This means you reserve a ticket and don't pay anything upfront. You pay what you think the show is worth at the end. We are confident in our ability to deliver a lineup and show that is worth at least 15-20 Euro and we are willing to put our money where our mouth is. Can we make it any fairer than that?
Still, if you'd rather pay upfront, we also have the option of purchasing a table seat which offers you somewhere to stack your drinks and is located farther back from the stage.
The call has gone out, the comics are gathering. The only question is, are you in the mood for something Epic?! Join us for the best Friday comedy live event in Berlin!

Silent Reading Club
**Silent Reading Book Club**
A new way to enjoy reading! Ditch the old book club, where everyone has to read the same book…this is better!
It works like this: Bring your own book. Come chat, have some tea or coffee, get to know your neighbors. Then we quietly read together, side by side, for about one hour, each one reading their own book, and afterwards we talk with each other about what we are reading.
You may read in any language, you may read any book. We are a group of international residents of Berlin from many different countries, of all ages, and we converse in English. We welcome you!
no registration needed- the event is donation based

**Choose one from Below:**
* 20 Orc Warriors
* 20 Empire Soldiers
* 20 Dwarf Warriors
* 20 Elf Spearmen
Step into a world where strategy meets artistry — and where every painted figure tells a story of battle, honor, and imagination. Join **Daclaud** at **The Arcane Foundry** for an evening that introduces newcomers and enthusiasts alike to the timeless craft of **tabletop wargaming** and **miniature painting**.
My own journey began with a fascination for fantasy — knights in armor, grim and hardened warriors, and monstrous creatures locked in epic battle. That passion led me to **Dungeons & Dragons**, where I painted my first **Basic Heroes set** and felt the spark that comes from bringing a character to life in miniature form. Not long after, I discovered **Warhammer Fantasy** and **Warhammer 40,000**, and I was hooked. The vision of vast armies clashing across the table — each unit meticulously painted, each story unfolding through dice and imagination — became my creative obsession.
During this event, we’ll explore the **origins of wargaming**, from its early military simulations to the richly detailed worlds of modern tabletop battle systems. You’ll learn how to **build and customize your own armies**, paint your first figures, and experience the joy of turning strategy and storytelling into a hands-on art form.
Whether you’re drawn by the lore, the hobby, or the thrill of commanding miniature legions, this introduction will open the gates to a world that has captivated hobbyists for generations.
**🎨 RSVP today and join us at The Arcane Foundry — where every brushstroke and battle tells a story.**
