Creative Business

\*This is a free event, but please [donate through Eventbrite](https://www.eventbrite.de/e/read-editing-monthly-writers-meetup-tickets-1981513291596?aff=oddtdtcreator) to support our collective if you are able! Please join us on the 2nd Monday of every month for this event, built for all of your “in between works“ by the [Read Wedding](https://www.instagram.com/readwedding/) collective. Most events for writers are focused around ***creation or performance***. Much comes between this, yet we do not always hold each other through that phase. It is perhaps expected that all of those self-questioning, unsure, multi-path moments between lightbulb idea and snap-inducing performances are to be personal and private--but they do not always have to be. We therefore offer you a space for everything unfinished. Needing bouncing around. Ready for a test run. We will meet in the back room of Cafe Cralle, ***which is a cash only***, collective-run staple of the Berlin writing and queer scene, for a more traditional meetup format than our open mic. The evening will be without any set structure of facilitation, but rather an approach determined based on who's arrived and what their goals are. You may expect some combination of solitary writing time, sharing and feedback, and guided exercises. We'd love for you to show up however you are, and with some writing materials (including your phone, if you prefer). However you arrive, so long as you are feeling curious and open, we will have something for you and your work. See you there! Brooks, Bubamarrë, Maggie & Johanna Re(a)d VVedding Kollektiv \-\-\- **NOTE: Excluding select, small workshops, Read Wedding has hosted entirely free events since we started. If you have the means and would like to support us, it goes a long way.

Kommt am 2. Montagabend im Monat ins Offene Wohnzimmer zum Open Draw! Raucht Euch auch manchmal der Kopf von zu viel PC-Arbeit? Der Asphalt der Stadt ist heute wieder viel zu grau? Ihr würdet am liebsten mal wieder wild auf einem Blatt Papier rumklecksen oder gedankenverlorene Linien zeichnen? Höchste Zeit zur Tat zu schreiten! Wir wollen in entspannter Atmosphäre die kreativen Zellen auf Volldampf fahren und uns der Inspiration überlassen. Mit Musik im Hintergrund sowie Wein, Tee und Snacks im Repertoire wird dann gekleckst, gemalt, gezeichnet, geklebt, geredet und gelacht.

Sujet kann alles sein: Der/die Tischnächste, der letzte Traum, oder der Feldhase Dürers. Technik auch: Von (Selbst)portrait über Stilleben bis zur Comiczeichnung soll alles abgedeckt werden. Wir bieten jeden 2. Montag im Monat offene Treffen zum kreativen Arbeiten sowie gelegentlich technik- und themenbasierte Workshops an. Wie immer wird um eine Spende für Raummiete/Material von 5-10€ gebeten. Anmeldung: Katharinav.runnen@gmx.de

**\*\*\*Look for us in the second-gloor bar & lounge! Just past the "fireplace" seating area.\*\*\*** Writing can feel like a solitary experience, but it doesn't have to be! Writing in the company of others can be surprisingly inspiring, productive, and comforting. Writers of all types and levels are welcome. Whether you're writing a novel, a memoir, poetry, journaling, working on your thesis, or even catching up on emails, all are welcome. We do things a little differently on Monday evenings. We start with an introduction round, then we will do 45 minutes of writing, break and share how it went, and then dive into the next 45-minute session. **For space reasons, we are limited to a certain number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come**. In between sessions, we have a Telegram chat: [https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw](https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw) For more information, visit [https://shutupwrite.com](https://shutupwrite.com/).

## **Melodic Masterpieces** ### **an open Music Creation Session for Producers, Singers & Songwriters** ‍ This program is structured into a repeating 4-week cycle, with each week focusing on a key stage of the music creation process—from initial inspiration to a fully mixed production. At the end of each month, the cycle resets back to Module 1. This allows for continuous repetition, progressive skill-building, and flexible entry at any stage of the cycle. The workshop is led by **experienced producers who have worked with major artists, record labels, management teams, and global brands**, bringing real-world industry insight into the creative process. This workshop is designed for **beginners / intermediate-level participants.** ‍ > Connect with fellow Musicians, develop & turn Your ideas into finished tracks. ‍ ‍ ##### **Module 1: Music Theory, Sample Selection & Sound Design** This module covers the core foundations of music creation. Participants learn essential music theory concepts, how to choose effective samples & how to design original sounds. The focus is on building a strong sonic and musical foundation for ideas & tracks. ##### **Module 2: Beat & Groove Programming** Development of rhythm, drum patterns, and groove-based elements. This module focuses on timing, swing, layering, and creating dynamic, modern beats that support vocals, songwriting & production ideas. ##### **Module 3: Vision, Songwriting & Recording** This module focuses on artistic direction and expression.

The goal is to transform creative concepts into tangible recordings. ##### **Module 4: Arrangement & Mixing** The final stage of the process. This module focuses on arranging the full track into a coherent structure and applying mixing techniques such as EQ, compression, spatial processing & balance to create a polished, release-ready sound. ##### **Feedback & Review Session** At the end of each cycle, there is a dedicated feedback round where participants receive constructive critique on their work or ask questions.

Weil es bei den letzten Malen so schön war, treffen wir uns diesmal wieder im **CI Space auf der Bugenhagenstraße 9, 10551 Berlin** (https://maps.app.goo.gl/dXaYKm8fkhBsxk42A). Vielen Dank an Iztok Petek, den Inhaber vom CI Space (www.facebook.com/cispaceberlin), der das wieder kostenlos für uns möglich macht - bitte dankt es ihm nach Möglichkeit mit dem Kauf von 1, 2 Getränken vor Ort. **Bitte seid spätestens 5min vor 9 Uhr da, da wir pünktlich starten werden.** Die ersten sind i. d. R. bereits ab 8:30 Uhr da, um vorab schonmal ein bisschen durchzustarten mit dem Netzwerken. Denkt daran **genügend Visitenkarten,** bitte mindestens eine, mitzubringen für die moderierte Netzwerkrunde - nur wenn man euch kontaktieren kann, kann man euch im Nachgang auch empfehlen! ;) **Veranstaltungsort:** CI Space (Berlin-Moabit) Bugenhagenstraße 9 10551 Berlin Nächste **U-Bahn-Station**: U9 Turmstraße oder U9 Birkenstraße (jeweils ca. 5 Gehminuten). **Start:** pünktlich 9 Uhr (ab 08:30 Uhr sind die ersten meist schon da) Zum nun bereits 10. Mal verschlägt es uns nach Moabit! Unser Moderator [Der Gottwald (siehe hier)](www.der-gottwald.de) lädt erneut ein und führt euch durch den Morgen. Wie immer bieten wir eine moderierte Netzwerkrunde für euch an, um neue Kontakte zu knüpfen und das eigene Business voran zu treiben, außerdem ist Zeit für etliche weitere Gespräche!

Die Teilnahme ist generell kostenlos und **nicht** an eine Mitgliedschaft gebunden. **Bitte beachten:** Unternehmer mit Multi-Level Marketing-Geschäftsmodellen schließen wir von unseren Veranstaltungen komplett aus, da wir hier die Erfahrung machen mussten, dass es dabei oft nur ums Verkaufen geht, und meistens kein echtes Interesse am Netzwerken und am Gegenüber existiert. **Weiterhin** stehen wir deshalb auch allen Arten des Provisionsgeschäfts (Finanzoptimierer, Immobilienmakler, Versicherungsvertreter, etc.) extrem kritisch gegenüber und gestatten diesen keine Teilnahme an unseren Events. Solltet ihr der Meinung sein, ihr fallt nicht in diese Kategorie, obwohl ihr in einer der genannten Branchen arbeitet, so sprecht uns bitte im Vorfeld an. Wir freuen uns darauf, auch **dich** persönlich kennenzulernen und dir bei der Entwicklung deines Geschäfts weiterzuhelfen!

Berlin-based art curator and educator Jenia Yanes invites emerging and mid-career artists to two transformative workshops designed for the realities of the 2026 art world. Kunstraum Heartspace is pleased to invite you to the next pair of workshops with curator Jenia Yanes. This new series is dedicated to the external architecture of an artistic practice: the first workshop (on June 14) focuses on collector circles and long-term relationships, the second (on June 21) on image, reputation, audience, and public communication. ## 14.06.2026 Building Your Collector Circle A practical workshop on collector psychology, identifying and approaching your potential collectors, and building a long-term collector circle around your work using professional strategies adapted from galleries and dealers, so you can hold far more control over your career and sales. **Most artists have no real understanding of who their collector could be, how to recognise that person, where to find them, how to approach them, or how long-term relationships around an artwork are actually built.** Sales happen randomly, through acquaintances, occasional commissions, or vague luck, while the artist remains dependent on accident and has very little real control over the professional and financial side of the practice. We will speak about different types of collectors, how to understand who your work is actually for, how to stop treating “the collector” as an abstract fantasy, how to begin forming a real circle of people around your work, how artists can use open studios, personal invitations, conversation, follow-up, and targeted relationship-building more intelligently, and how sales at a higher level are built through trust, context, and long-term human contact. **This workshop is for artists who:** * want to understand how collector relationships are actually built instead of relying on random sales or chance encounters; * want to have more control over the commercial side of their practice instead of depending entirely on intermediaries; * feel that their work could resonate with the right people, but have no clear system for identifying, approaching, and building relationships with them; * want a more concrete and professional understanding of how sales happen around serious artistic work. **[Please book your tickets here with Jenia Yanes.](https://jeniayanes.com/products/the-artist-collector-circle-public-image-reputation-and-audience-intensive?pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=9adabe939&pr_rec_pid=15608479187292&pr_ref_pid=15413290369372&pr_seq=uniform)** **You can attend in person or online.**

An official satellite event of the [New European Bauhaus Festival](https://new-european-bauhaus.europa.eu/events/festival_en) program – Saturday June 13, 2026 cover art by [Isaac Abrams](https://isaacabrams.com/) Immersive Resonance is a 7-hour participatory satellite event hosted by Das Baumhaus Berlin that combines dialogue, artistic experience, collective reflection, and embodied practice to explore how New European Bauhaus (NEB) values can be sensed, shared, and lived together. Positioned at the intersection of FORUM and FEST, the event creates an open and welcoming environment where intellectual exchange, emotional connection, physical engagement, and reflective practices coexist. Through a carefully curated sequence of activities—ranging from discussions and workshops to immersive meditation and celebratory gathering—participants are invited to explore new frameworks for solidarity, balance, and collective responsibility. Program 16:00 – **Open Greeting Zone (OGZ)** The event begins by transforming the entire venue into an Open Greeting Zone, where informal introductions and spontaneous encounters are encouraged. This format lowers barriers to participation, supports inclusion, and creates a welcoming environment for diverse audiences. Drinks and snacks are provided to support convivial exchange. 17:00 – **Opening Remarks by Scott Bolden (Baumhaus founder)**: Exploring New Frameworks for Solidarity Introductory reflections situate the event within the New European Bauhaus values and outline the relevance of solidarity, balance, and collective responsibility in addressing current social and ecological challenges. 17:15 – **Short Film Screening** Screening of Re:Balance – The Basis for a Social Evolution (6 minutes, English with subtitles), offering a concise artistic and conceptual input on systemic imbalance and societal transformation. Re:Balance serves as a catalyst for dialogue during the moderated discussion. 17:20 – **Moderated Q&A and Discussion** An open discussion invites participants to reflect on the film and connect its themes to their own lived experiences, professional practices, and community contexts. 17:45 – **Short Break** (food, drinks and snacks will be available all day) 18:00 – **Participatory Workshop: “Transforming Imbalance” (60 minutes)** A facilitated, interactive workshop where participants identify imbalances in personal, professional, and community contexts and co-develop realistic, actionable responses for the present, alongside longer-term aspirations. The workshop emphasizes collective intelligence, co-creation, and agency. 19:00 – **Workshop Feedback and Open Discussion** Participants share insights, observations, and proposed actions, supporting mutual learning and collective reflection. 19:45 – **“News You Can Use”** Short one-minute peer-to-peer contributions where participants share offers, needs, initiatives, or upcoming events, strengthening networks and encouraging continued engagement beyond the event. 20:00 – **Evening Soirée** An informal, festive networking moment with music, drinks, and snacks, reinforcing the FEST dimension and social cohesion. 20:30 – **FLOW Meditation (60 minutes)** An active, guided, immersive meditation that fosters awareness, resonance, and embodied reflection, offering a sensory experience aligned with well being and sustainability values. 23:30 – **Closing at Das Baumhaus Berlin** Optional continuation of the evening at a local cultural venue, reinforcing community connection and cultural exchange. Immersive Resonance aims to cultivate a shared consciousness and inspire continued participation and action beyond the event itself. By blending dialogue, creativity, and celebration, the event makes NEB values tangible and experiential—fostering beauty through meaningful encounters, sustainability through awareness and balance, and togetherness through inclusive, participatory formats.
