A Women’s Circle & Watercolour Workshop
## **What Does Equality Look Like?** *A Women’s Circle & Watercolour Workshop*
In this intimate two-hour women’s circle, we will gather to create, reflect, and connect through watercolour painting inspired by vintage feminist posters and historic movements such as the Women's March and International Women's Day.
We’ll begin by exploring powerful imagery and messages from past feminist struggles. Together, we’ll reflect on the fights that came before us, the freedoms we’ve inherited, and the work that still remains.
Through guided prompts and open conversation, you’ll be invited to share:
* Your personal relationship with feminism
* The women and movements that shaped you
* What equality means in your life today
* Your hopes for the future
Then, using watercolours, you’ll create your own vision of *Future Feminism* — whether that’s a symbolic poster, a soft imagined landscape of equality, powerful words layered in colour, or an abstract expression of freedom.
This workshop is not about artistic perfection. It is about expression, connection, memory, and possibility.
Let's meet and create together! Meaningful conversation and art as a way to resist, fight and create!

Let's get creative in Berlin! Intuitiv malend seinen Farbimpulsen folgen.
## "Ich kann nicht malen! Du möchtest malen, aber traust dich nicht?
Freude an Farben, an einer kreativen Auszeit, mehr braucht es nicht zum Malen. Es ist wie einzutauchen in die eigene Farbwelt, denn es ist alles da!
Da bei mir nicht gegenständlich gemalt wird, fällt es super leicht zu starten und sich den Farben und dir anzuvertrauen. Es entstehen wunderbare, farbenfrohe Bilder.
Intuarts Malkurse (fast) immer Freitags ab 17.30 bis 20.00 Uhr oder
Samstags ab 10.30 bis 13.00 Uhr
Lights Up! A fully improvised musical comedy.

**Event Info:**
Bring along your **current book to read** (or something **creative** to work on ) and join us for this mix of a shared focus time + discussion.
\- 19:00\-19:30 \- Meet & greet
\- 19:30\-20:30 \- Silent focus time
\- 20:30 \- Discussion of books/ projects over coffee
**Drinks & snacks are included** ☕️

* **Attendance here doesn’t show all sign-ups from other platforms.**
***FAQ: Why does it cost money if I bring my own project?***
Because we rent a beautiful, central space for every event. Ever thought your monthly apartment rent was too high? Well, multiply that – that’s what commercial spaces in big cities like Berlin cost *per hour*.
Of course, if all you want is just some quiet time, your home or a library is perfect. But if you’d like to focus & connect with others in an inspiring space – with drinks, snacks included – that’s what your ticket helps to cover.

Cuddling as Collective Care – all genders
**Cuddling as Collective Care – all genders**
for **LGBTQIA+**
**[Book a Ticket](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/regenerative-touch/w11-2026)**
**Member: 15 €**
**Regular: 30 €**
This Cuddle Puddle offers a safe, consent-based space for people of all genders within the LGBTQIA+ community to experience non-sexual touch, communal connection and rest. Guided exercises support emotional wellbeing, boundaries, and self-awareness.
**Cuddle Puddles** are structured, guided spaces where people can experience the benefits of non-sexual touch — such as reduced stress, nervous system regulation, and a deeper sense of belonging. Touch, when consensual and caring, can support emotional resilience and mental health.
This **Cuddle Puddle** is open to all genders within the LGBTQIA+ community, creating a space where diverse identities can meet beyond gendered expectations. A non-gender-restricted setting allows for broader empathy, mutual understanding, and connection, while honoring individual boundaries, choice, and safety at all times.
**General Information**
• This format is for all queer people (LGBTQIA+) interested in experiencing touch in a safe(r) setting.
• This is a clothes-on format.
• Bring a sheet and towel to cover cushions, mats, or massage tables.
• This event will be in English
• This event is also available at a reduced member price – but not part of the three-free-monthly-events benefit.
• Concession tickets upon written request to **[events@wearevillage.org](mailto:events@wearevillage.org)**
**Kuscheln als kollektive Fürsorge – Alle Geschlechter**
für **LGBTQIA+**
**[Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/regenerative-touch/w11-2026)**
**Mitglied: 15 €**
**Regulärer Preis: 30 €**
Dieser Cuddle Puddle bietet einen sicheren, einvernehmlichen Raum für Menschen aller Geschlechter aus der LGBTQIA+ Community, um nicht-sexuelle Nähe, gemeinschaftliche Verbindung und Entspannung zu erleben. Die angeleitete Erfahrung stärkt emotionales Wohlbefinden, Körperwahrnehmung und klare Grenzen.
**Cuddle Puddles** sind angeleitete Räume für bewusste, nicht-sexuelle Berührung, die Stress reduzieren, das Nervensystem regulieren und das Gefühl von Zugehörigkeit stärken können. Konsensuelle Nähe unterstützt emotionale Stabilität und psychische Gesundheit.
Diese Cuddle Puddle ist für alle Geschlechter innerhalb der LGBTQIA+ Community geöffnet. Ein nicht-geschlechtergetrennter Raum ermöglicht vielfältige Begegnungen jenseits von Rollenbildern und Erwartungen. So entsteht ein Feld für mehr Empathie, gegenseitiges Verständnis und authentische Verbindung, immer auf Basis von Wahlfreiheit, klaren Grenzen und gegenseitigem Respekt
**Was ist Regenerative Berührung?**
Regenerative Touch ist ein monatlicher Workshop für Queer People, bei dem wir uns gegenseitig helfen, langsamer zu werden, in unseren Körper zu kommen und in einer unterstützenden und nährenden Umgebung die wohltuende Wirkung von regenerativer Berührung erkunden. Berührung, die im täglichen Leben oft übersehen wird, ist ein grundlegendes menschliches Bedürfnis.
In diesen Workshops schaffen wir einen Raum, der ausschließlich ihrer regenerativen und heilenden Kraft gewidmet ist, frei von romantischen oder sexuellen Konnotationen.
Berührung kommuniziert direkt und erreicht Orte, die Worte nicht erreichen können. Hast du jemals die beruhigende Wirkung einer warmen Umarmung oder einer tröstenden Hand auf deiner Schulter erlebt? Selbst ein kurzes 15-minütiges Handhalten kann zu einer signifikanten Senkung der Herzfrequenz und des Blutdrucks führen und eine starke Entspannungsreaktion signalisieren. Eine einfache 20-sekündige Umarmung kann zu höheren Oxytocinspiegeln führen, dem Hormon, das mit Bindung und Vertrauen verbunden ist.
Jeden Monat wird unser trauma-sensitiver Moderator den Abend um Themen wie Präsenz, Regulierung des Nervensystems und emotionale Sicherheit gestalten und sich auf praktisches Erleben anstatt auf zu viele Worte oder Techniken konzentrieren. Es sind keine Vorkenntnisse in Körperarbeit erforderlich – bring einfach deine Neugier mit.
**Vorteile**
– Erfahre eine Verringerung von Angstzuständen und Depressionen sowie eine erhöhte emotionale Widerstandsfähigkeit durch beruhigende, achtsame Berührung.
– Kultiviere wertschätzende Anwesenheit und tiefere Verbindungen zu dir selbst und anderen.
– Unterstütze die Heilung von Traumata und setze in einer sicheren, nährenden Umgebung Emotionen frei.
– Verbessere deine Stimmung und deine Immunfunktion, indem du Stress reduzierst und Endorphine freisetzt.
– Fördere ein Gefühl von Gemeinschaft und Zugehörigkeit durch gemeinsame, nonverbale Erfahrungen.
– Ermutige tieferes Mitgefühl und Akzeptanz durch sanften, unterstützenden Kontakt.
Gentle Flow & Sound Bath
This nourishing 60-minute session blends a gentle, feel-good yoga flow with immersive sound healing to help you move, breathe, and soften back into yourself.
We begin with a slow, intuitive flow designed to release tension, awaken the body, and create a sense of ease and fluidity. Movements are accessible and adaptable, focusing on grounding, opening the heart, and reconnecting to natural rhythm rather than pushing or striving. Breath awareness guides each transition, allowing the practice to feel both energizing and calming.
As the body settles, the session gradually transitions into a deeply restful sound journey. Using instruments such as singing bowls, chimes and voice gently wash through the nervous system, supporting relaxation, emotional release, and creative flow. You're invited to rest, receive, and simply be.
This class is ideal if you're seeking:
* A gentle yet uplifting movement practice
* Stress relief and nervous system reset
* A sense of grounding, creativity, and embodied calm
* A mindful experience that blends movement, sound, and presence
No prior yoga or sound healing experience is needed. Come as you are - curious, tired, inspired, or simply in need of a pause.
✨ Move. Feel. Rest. Reset. ✨
Bring your own mat or use one of ours.
Breathe Free - Consious Breathwork Session in Berlin
\#\#\# Was ist Breathwork?
Conscious Breathwork bedeutet bewusstes atmen. Und das ist es letztendlich auch, was wir etwa 70 Minuten lang machen werden. In einer Breathwork Session geht es vor allem darum, dass Du loslassen, Dich entspannen und mit Dir selbst und Deinem Unterbewusstsein verbinden kannst. Das geht am besten, in dem Du gar nichts erwartest und nicht so viel dadrüber nachdenkst. ✨
\#\#\# Das erwartet Dich
Nach einem kurzen Check-In beginnen wir mit der Session. Die Atmung kann im Liegen oder Sitzen statt finden, ganz nach Deiner Wahl. Du wirst durch ein bewegendes Musikset geführt, wodurch Du in eine Trance-Atemmeditation gelangst. Hier kannst Du unter anderem diese Erfahrungen machen:
Stress abbauen, herausfinden, was da noch in Dir steckt, Dein Potential entfalten, innere Anspannungen lösen oder unterdrückte Emotionen freilassen, in Dich hinein horchen und Lösungen finden, Kreative Ideen und Visionen erhalten oder einfach eine berührende Zeit haben.
\#\#\# Über Nina

Es folgten viele Weiterbildungen in den Bereichen Chakren, Meditation, Yoga und Trauma. 2018 habe ich mich zudem auf die Heldenreise begeben. Seit 2023 bin ich Atemtherapeutin Conscious Breathwork nach der [Lichtatmung®](https://naou.de/lichtatmung/) und freue mich sehr, Dich bei Deiner Reise begleiten zu dürfen. In meine Sessions fließen meine unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen ein. Was mich jedoch am meisten bewegt:
Mich begeistert alles, was Dich mehr bei Dir selbst ankommen lässt, Dich mit Deiner Lebendigkeit und vor allem Deinem Herzen verbindet!
\#\#\# Bitte mitbringen:
– Yogamatte oder andere Unterlage (z.B Isomatte), damit Du es schön gemütlich hast
– Lockere, angenehme Kleidung
– Alles andere, was Dich noch wohlfühlen lässt.

This event is simple, we meet and sketch each other doing portraits. Most of the participants use pencils or watercolors. Main aim is to socialize while we draw.

Kreative Schreibwerkstatt in Charlottenburg (14:30 Uhr!)
Für Mitglieder von Text Collective Berlin ist die Teilnahme an dieser Veranstaltung kostenlos.
Nicht-Mitglieder werden um eine Spende von zehn Euro gebeten.
[https://textcollective.de/ticket](https://textcollective.de/ticket)
Es handelt sich um einen moderierten Workshop.
Kreative Schreibübung mit anschließender Diskussion zum Erfahrungsaustausch, Inspiration und Motivation zu sammeln. Ein Raum für alle, die kreativ schreiben möchten – egal ob du gerade erst anfängst oder schon länger schreibst.
**Jeden zweiten Samstag des Monats von 14:30 Uhr bis 16:30 Uhr in Charlottenburg (Haus am Mierendorffplatz).**
**Was dich erwartet:**
In unseren Treffen arbeiten wir mit abwechslungsreichen Schreibimpulsen, die neue Perspektiven eröffnen und spielerisches Experimentieren ermöglichen. Du schreibst direkt vor Ort, teilst deine Texte mit der Gruppe (freiwillig!) und erhältst konstruktives Feedback.
Die Atmosphäre ist offen und unterstützend. Hier darf ein Text noch unfertig sein, eine Idee noch roh, ein Gedanke noch unausgereift. In dieser Atmosphäre gegenseitiger Wertschätzung entsteht der Mut, sich auszuprobieren und die eigene Stimme zu entdecken. Wir lesen einander vor, geben Rückmeldung, ermutigen uns gegenseitig und praktizieren das Zuhören.
**Über Text Collective Berlin:**
Wir sind eine kreative Schreibcommunity, die regelmäßige Workshops und Lesungen organisiert. 2025 erschien unsere erste Anthologie "Begegnung zwischen Welten" mit Texten aus der Schreibwerkstatt.

Portrait Drawing on Sunday Afternoon
This group is for everyone who is interested in drawing portraits!
For me, drawing has been a wonderful way to gain a new perspective on the world and the people within it.
Whether you are just starting out or have been drawing for ages — all levels are welcome :)
How it works:
1\. We meet at The Castle pub in Mitte and do short sittings of 15 minutes for each other\. The first sitting is divided into 3 warm\-up sketches\, 5 minutes each\.
2\. Before we start\, everybody writes their name on a blank card \(provided by the organizer\); these cards are then used to randomly pick the model every 15 minutes\.
3\. Usually we do 8 sittings\, with a 15\-minute break in the middle \(so after 4 sittings\, or 1 hour\)\.
-> The participation is free, but it is expected that everybody orders something from the bar to support the lovely location.
Get out your pencils and let's start!
Please bring your own art supplies!

Pitch and Planning Session # 56 - FREE EVENT
**\*\*\* Please note the new time! This will take place at 15:30 instead of the usual 19:00.\*\*\***
The next **Pitch and Planning Session** will be on **Sun. Mar. 15th at 15:30.** We are super looking forward to hearing your pitches and watching you meet people ready to help you make your films a reality in the really real world!
📍The event is located at **House of Music** in RAW Gelande, Revalerstr 99, 10245 Berlin . The event is on the ground floor, by the bar. This is a very large and amazing space that we are now calling home.
Please note that this is **a free event**. In order to support the work we do, our community, and the lovely space that is gracious enough to let us hold events there, **All we ask is that that you have 2 drinks** of some kind.
For those who are new, our Pitch and Planning Session is a monthly English language event held here in Berlin for people who have an idea for a film and would like to pitch it, as well as those people who are eager to work on films. It's all about getting films made.
If you have a film idea that is burning a hole in your brain, tell the people in the audience your story idea and hopefully you will meet people who can help you make your idea into a reality!
This event is also for people who want to help out in all aspects of filmmaking to help make these pitches happen. So if your passion is camera, sound, hair and makeup, writing, lighting, fighting, or anything that could help, you are always welcome. Whether you're new to filmmaking or experienced and want to work on something cool and creative, no matter what your area of expertise/interest is, this is for you!
Be sure to show up to either pitch your idea or be ready to listen to some interesting pitches from excited people and potentially help someone make their film. Let's make some cool shit!
If you still want more information you can head on over to our website:
*https://berlinfilmcommunity.com/pitch_and_planning/*
I have been a part of making some of these pitched projects into real world movies and I have always had a blast.

See you there!
Sewists Unite: Sewing Meetup in Potomac (Potomac Library)
All. I'd like to experiment with a weekend morning to see if this is more or less convenient and preferred compared to a weeknight. I plan to book a room at the Potomac Library, though I'm also keeping my eyes peeled for another venue that might be fun and hospitable.
Journaling and Scrapbooking at a Bakery ☕️🥐
Let’s hang out and journal together, trade stationary and stickers, and have a good time! Please note, we do not have a reservation, so we will do our best to find some good spots when we get there.
The Arts & Community: Creativity as a Catalyst for Connection
What role do the arts play in building strong, vibrant communities? How can creativity bring people together across differences, spark dialogue, and strengthen our shared sense of belonging?
Join us for an open, engaging discussion on how visual art, music, theater, literature, film, and public art contribute to community life.
Whether you’re an artist, arts supporter, educator, organizer, or simply someone who values culture, this conversation is for you.
We’ll explore questions such as:
* How do the arts create connection across cultural, generational, and social divides?
* Can creative expression help communities heal after conflict or crisis?
This is a dialogue — not a lecture — designed to surface diverse perspectives and lived experiences. Expect thoughtful conversation and opportunities to imagine new possibilities together.
**All are welcome.**
Queer Circle
Specifically catering to those in the LGBTQIA+ community (though Allies are welcome), Queer Circle is a place to gather safely where space is held for everyone. Led by Ginny, the circle focuses on empowerment, individuality, and how our practices entwine with it all. Prepare to work with queer/androgynous deities and beings, and our queer/trans-cestors!
HATE HAS NO HOME HERE. Please be conscious of shared experiences and how it may impact fellow circle members.
🏳️🌈 fee is $25 🏳️⚧️
