**From Portfolio to Practice – Queer Bridges** with ***Hassandra*** for **LGBTQIA+ Queer Migrants** **[Free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w16-2026)** 🔵 This workshop offers queer migrant freelance individuals essential tools for professional development. Led by multidisciplinary artist Hassandra, participants will learn how to craft compelling CVs, navigate open call applications, build effective portfolios, and strengthen their social media presence. Through guided exercises, they will develop a clear language to articulate their vision and practice while gaining confidence to explore their creative and professional potential. **Queer Bridges: Forging connections and providing resources for LGBTQIA+ people with experiences of migration and/or displacement.** Queer people with experiences of migration and/or displacement in Berlin often face unique challenges in their daily lives that can limit their access to supportive communities and inclusive environments. With the support of the **Deutsche Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, we have developed the Queer Bridges program to overcome these barriers. We provide resources, networking and support in a welcoming environment for queer immigrants and refugees through our special program. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging to the local LGBTQIA+ community, enabling smooth integration and an improved quality of life for queer folks with experiences of migration and/or displacement. ✅ Our **Queer Bridges** program will continue to evolve and we are always happy to hear about your needs. If you are interested, you can send us an e-mail to stay informed about further updates. **General Information** **Participants**: This workshop is for all who identify as LGBTQ+ and have experienced migration and/or displacement. If you don’t share these experiences but are interested in joining please reach out to us first to see if space is available. We ask that all participants respect the program’s core focus and contribute to fostering an open respectful space. **Registration**: This event has limited spots available. Registration through our website is therefore required. **Language**: English **Cost:** The event is free of charge. 🔵 **Vom Portfolio zur Praxis – Queer Bridges** ##### Kostenlos mit [Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w16-2026/) Dieser Workshop bietet queeren migrantischen freiberuflichen Personen Werkzeuge für ihre professionelle Entwicklung. Unter der Leitung der multidisziplinären Künstlerin Hassandra lernen die Teilnehmenden, Lebensläufe zu erstellen, Open-Call-Bewerbungen zu meistern, Portfolios aufzubauen und ihre Social-Media-Präsenz zu stärken. Durch angeleitete Übungen entwickeln sie eine klare Sprache, um ihre Vision und Praxis zu artikulieren, Selbstvertrauen zu gewinnen und ihre eigene Stimme im Feld zu finden. **Queer Bridges: Verbindungen schaffen und Ressourcen für LGBTQIA+ Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung bereitstellen.** Queere Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung in Berlin sehen sich in ihrem täglichen Leben oft mit besonderen Herausforderungen konfrontiert, die ihren Zugang zu unterstützenden Gemeinschaften und integrativen Umgebungen einschränken können. Mit Unterstützung der **Deutschen Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, haben wir das Programm Queer Bridges entwickelt, um diese Hürden zu überwinden. Wir bieten Ressourcen, Vernetzung und Unterstützung in einem einladenden Umfeld für queere Migrant\*innen und Geflüchtete durch unser spezielles Programm. Unser Ziel ist es, ein Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit zur lokalen LGBTQIA+ Community zu fördern und damit eine reibungslose Integration sowie eine verbesserte Lebensqualität für queere Menschen mit Migrations- und/oder Fluchterfahrung zu ermöglichen. ✅ Unser **Queer Bridges** Programm wird sich stetig weiter entwickeln und wir freuen uns auch jederzeit von Euren Bedarfen zu hören.

Importante: O grupo é ativo e o encontro acontece toda segunda (geralmente tem pelo menos 10 participantes, mesmo que não apareçam aqui no aplicativo). A gente se organiza mais por um grupo de WhatsApp do que pelo MeetUp. Entre em contato com Timur para ser adicionada/o ao grupo de WhatsApp. Hallo Leute / Oi, pessoal! Hallo an alle! Montag machen wir einen Sprachaustausch Portugiesisch-Deutsch. Wir treffen uns um 19:00 Uhr im Yorkschlösschen. Es ist egal, ob du bereits gut Portugiesisch sprichst oder erst dabei bist, die Sprache zu lernen, lass uns gemeinsam üben! Wir sehen uns dort :) \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Temos um evento bacaninha para quem quer praticar alemão e/ou português em Berlin. Vamos nos encontrar às 19:00h no Yorkschlösschen. Não importa se você já fala bem alemão ou se tá só aprendendo, vamos praticar!

\*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 a more traditional meetup format than our open mic -- without any set format of facilitation. We will determine the approach to each session 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.

A monthly cello get-together for playing, hanging out, and sharing all things cello. We’ll sight-read ensemble music, swap warm-ups, snack and drink, ask questions, and enjoy making music together without pressure. Each meetup includes a short, informal mini-workshop on a rotating topic — come as you are, play what you can, stay as long as you like. 15€ cover fee (includes snacks & drinks). **Topic this month: Cello Posture and Positioning with Natasha Jaffe** Clean up your position to use your body optimally - a good basic technique is the key to being able to play fluidly, beautifully, or quickly, as well as being able to play for many many years of your life. We'll look at places where unnecessary tension builds, ways to use your body weight, gravity, and physics to optimize your motions and make cello playing more effortless. **You should be able to play the cello at least as a beginner (1st position) to participate.** *** Ein monatliches Cello-Get-together zum Spielen, Abhängen und Austauschen. Wir lesen locker Ensemble-Stücke vom Blatt, teilen Warm-ups, snacken, trinken, stellen Cello-Fragen und machen gemeinsam Musik – ganz ohne Druck. Jedes Treffen hat außerdem einen kurzen, entspannten Mini-Workshop zu einem wechselnden Thema. Komm wie du bist, spiel was geht, bleib so lange du willst. 15 € Beitrag (Snacks & Getränke inklusive). **Thema dieses Monat: Cello Posture and Positioning with Natasha Jaffe** Optimiere deine Haltung, um deinen Körper optimal einzusetzen – eine gute Grundtechnik ist der Schlüssel zu flüssigem, schönem und schnellem Spiel sowie zu einer langen, gesunden Spielkarriere. Wir werden uns ansehen, wo sich unnötige Verspannungen aufbauen, und wie du dein Körpergewicht, die Schwerkraft und physikalische Prinzipien nutzen kannst, um deine Bewegungen zu optimieren und das Cellospielen müheloser zu gestalten. **Du musst das Cello schon spielen, wenigstens in der 1e Lage, um mitzumachen.**

**Live men's circle** **April to June 2026, twice a month** After a long stretch without a space for regular, in-person circles, we're finally able to offer a **new, live men's circle in Berlin**. Many of you have asked for this over the past couple of years — a chance to meet face to face, sit together and talk in real time. The **Monday Men** circle offers a chance for that. From April through June we meet every two weeks, for two hours on a Monday evening. A closed group, with a maximum of eight participants, to encourage familiarity, trust and continuity. All the dates are: **April 13** & **27**, **May 11** & **25**, **June 8** & **22** There's a cost involved, which has been kept as low as possible, and it's only for the use of the room we'll have. A total **40 €** from each man covers all **six sessions** for all **three months**. You can attend as many sessions as you like. After the first three months, the group can choose what comes next. There could be a summer break, or the group may decide to continue. **This could be useful for you if you'd like to...** * Connect in person with other men in Berlin * Build real-life bonds, especially if you’re new to the city or to the Berlin Men’s Group * Explore ideas and challenges that matter to you * Look more closely at your experiences and how you express them * Experience a low-pressure introduction to men’s work **What we'll do...** For those who already know the online men’s circles, some parts of this format may feel familiar. As in the online format, the sessions always include: * **Welcome** – greeting and orientation from the host * **Opening round** – describing briefly what things are like for you * **Sharing round** – expanding on your thoughts, speaking freely * **Deepening round** – a chance to offer each other questions * **Open discussion** – explore what emerges together * **Closing round** – share what you take away from the session In addition, the live format allows for a few extra elements: * **Partnered conversation** * **A topic of the week**, chosen by the group * **A little movement**, such as stretching or short breaks to move around and reset attention As always - no prior experience neccessary, no preparation needed. Just walk in and grab a seat. **About me, the host...** I’m Hans. I've been co-organising the Berlin Men's Group with Peter and the others for five years now. In that time I've become a certified systemic counsellor, specialised in supporting men. For these circles my style will be practical and down-to-earth. I help hold the structure, keep things on track, and support the group so that each man can explore what matters to him in his own way. I'll be aiming for a space where men can speak honestly, listen to each other, and look at important things without it feeling heavy or complicated. If you’re curious but not sure if this feels right for you at the moment, you’re welcome to send me a message here on Meetup or email request@zigmal.org. You can ask me anything you like. *This group is being logistically supported by BMG partner project [Zigmal e.V.](www.zigmal.org), a volunteer association that focuses on strengthening men through social connection and free counselling.*

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.
