### **Fantastic Anatomy** In this unique workshop, we will explore and celebrate the human body in all its beautiful complexity — and then let our imagination transform it. What does a sacrum look like? Could it become a butterfly? How do hands truly connect? Can we paint the magic of a gentle touch? What lives in our hearts? Together, we will observe the body with curiosity and appreciation, and then reimagine it through colour and fantasy. This workshop is an invitation to experience the body not only as anatomy, but as a living, poetic vessel that carries us through life. Over four classes, we will explore bones, muscles, and organs in a fresh and expressive way. Using watercolour techniques that embrace fluidity and transparency, we’ll experiment with water, stains, textures, and layering to create our own artistic vision of the body. Join me in this colourful tribute to the extraordinary vessel we inhabit — where science meets imagination, and anatomy becomes art! ✨ No previous painting experience needed. Gentle guidance provided throughout. The workshop includes **four classes**, but you’re also welcome to join individual sessions (when available).

Raus aus der Sprachlosigkeit und rein ins Gespräch – das soll die neue Reihe „Sprechen und Zuhören“ den Menschen im Stadtteil ermöglichen. Das Thema des Abends ist Zivilcourage im Alltag: Zwischen Wegschauen und Hinschauen im Kiez. Wie geht es mir damit? Manchmal werden im Alltag Situationen erlebt, die einen nicht mehr loslassen und nach Handeln fragen. Ob im Bus, auf der Straße oder im Hausflur: Was löst das Handeln des Gegenübers aus? Was hätte man tun können? Wie hätte man sich sonst verhalten können? Diese Veranstaltung lädt dazu ein, in kleiner Runde über Erlebtes, Gehörtes, zum Thema als solches ins Gespräch zu kommen – ehrlich, offen und ohne Bewertung. Anmeldung: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/xG5ju2PuHq Wir freuen uns auf Euch! *** Die Veranstaltung findet in Kooperation mit dem Stadtteilzentrum Schöneberg und der Bezirksstelle für Koordination und Beteiligung statt. Das Dialogformat „Sprechen und Zuhören“ wurde von Mehr Demokratie e.V. entwickelt und wird inzwischen deutschlandweit durchgeführt. English version below *** Breaking the silence and getting the conversation started – that is what the new ‘Speaking and Listening’ series aims to enable for people in the neighbourhood. The theme of the evening is moral courage – looking away or looking on? Sometimes, in everyday life, we encounter situations that stay with us and call for action. Whether on the bus, in the street or in the hallway: what does the other person’s behaviour trigger? What could one have done? How else might one have behaved? This event invites participants to engage in small-group discussions about experiences and things heard, and to talk about the topic itself – honestly, openly and without judgement. Registration: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/xG5ju2PuHq We look forward to seeing you there! *** The event is taking place in cooperation with the Schöneberg Stadtteilzentrum and the District Office for Coordination and Participation. The ‘Speaking and Listening’ dialogue format was developed by Mehr Demokratie e.V. and is now being run across Germany.
