RSVP on Luma: [https://luma.com/oz1a88ms](https://luma.com/oz1a88ms) Silent Reading / Creating Club is a gathering for people who enjoy focusing together in public. Bring a book, a notebook, a sketchpad, knitting needles, whatever you’d like to spend a quiet hour doing. All projects and all participants are welcome. We’re building a community of readers and creators who value depth, presence, and shared silence. The reading and creating isn't the real highlight, though, it’s in the people who return and make it feel like a familiar room. (Please RSVP “yes” only if you can make it, so we can save a seat for you and others on the waitlist.) Our Meeting Point is the **W66 Café**. There’s no entrance fee, but please order at least one item from the café and don’t bring outside food or drinks 🙂 No assignments, expectations, or pressure. Just a shared hour of intentional silence, followed by the opportunity for good conversation. 🕰 Our Agenda **10:30 – 11:00** Arrivals, ordering drinks/food, light social time **11:00 – 12:00** The Great Quiet Hour (Read. Write. Sketch. Code. Think. Sit.) **12:00 – 12:30** Optional socializing: share what you were reading or creating, or simply continue in quiet focus. ## 🏡 House Guidelines To keep this space calm and welcoming for everyone: • Silence during the focus hour (no calls or conversations) • Put cellphones on silent mode • If using technology, please avoid meetings or audio (headphones please!) • Arrive before 11:00 if possible to minimize disruptions

Join us for our Celebration with food, fire, and real conversation. A living lab, shared stories, and big questions about Culture and Nature We'd love to invite you to the first of our **Summer Celebrations**, a new rhythm we're adding to KulturNest life, alongside our end-of-year gathering. These gatherings have a simple purpose: to connect, to share what we're each working on, and to think together about what we're building. We believe the wisdom in this community belongs to all of us. **27th June, 12:00 – 16:00 Freienwalder Str. (entrance beside La Pica, Freienwalder Str. 14a, 13055 Berlin)** **Flow:** 12:00 Come as you are. The afternoon opens with food, fire, and unhurried conversation. Simple pleasure of being in the same place at the same time. Bring your appetite and something for the barbecue. 13:30 Step into the Warm Data Lab. An open invitation to a living lab, where information moves between stories. Come curious. No preparation needed, maybe your story is already there? The lab is hosted by a certified host. 14:40 What is, and might be, KulturNest to you? Short, spontaneous sharing. Then a brief look at our projects and funding, with space for questions. 15:10 Think with us. Rotating conversations. One question at the centre: How might we place Nature at the centre of Culture? Come with a thought, a question, or something you haven't quite figured out yet. The World Café method works best when ideas are still a little unfinished. 15:50 A gentle closing. We'll come together to close the afternoon with a warm invitation to find out more about KulturNest membership, for those who feel drawn to go deeper. Ask us any questions!

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. The usual agenda: - Arrival and introduction (~20 minutes) - ⁠Silent reading (~1 hour) - ⁠Discussion (~30-40 minutes) - ⁠Join us for a bite at a local restaurant afterwards, if you like! 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. All funds support the Offenes Wohnzimmer.

Each session opens with a Soulbits oracle image setting the tone for the gathering we will move through. We will come together to honor the natural rhythms of rooting, rising, releasing, and receiving; the cycles that shape the soul’s journey. Through the four pillars of being: mindset, movement, connection & nourishment, we will create a space where imagery, sensation, and community weave together. Where the body becomes the guide, images act as mirrors, and the soul speaks. This circle is about noticing what rises, honoring what’s true, and reconnecting with the parts of yourself ready to be seen. This is a space to gather your scattered pieces, soften your body, and return to your truth with community by your side. Soulbits Circle is a reminder that every fragment of your story, every soulbit, belongs. Together we weave them into the blooming wholeness that you are. *Energy Exchange: 1-group $20-40 or 6-group $115* *Payment Options: Venmo or Cash* **Please RSVP to [Caitlynn](https://kalikwellnesswithin.org/) via** **email @ [kalik.wellnesswithin@gmail.com](mailto:kalik.wellnesswithin@gmail.com)** **text @ ‪(614) 407-4021‬** 💫
