Pencils & Chords - Wanderlust String Quartet - Drawing with Music
Where music meets the sketch pad.
Step into a world where classical melodies inspire live drawing. At Pencils and Chords, you’ll sketch in real time to evocative melodies, pin your finished pieces to the Art Wall, and compete for a special award.
Wanderlust is an international string quartet formed by four musicians whose artistic paths cross borders and cultures. Bringing together performers from Venezuela, South Korea, Italy, and Germany, the ensemble is united by a shared curiosity for sound, form, and expressive freedom.
For this special evening, Wanderlust presents a program dedicated to French chamber music, exploring contrast, color, and transformation through three distinctive voices:
* Jean Françaix – String Quartet (1938), playful, transparent, and full of wit.
* Darius Milhaud – String Quartet No. 12, driven by rhythm, clarity, and modern energy.
* César Franck – String Quartet in D major, expansive and luminous, built on cyclical form and deep lyricism.
From sparkling elegance to bold modernism and late-Romantic intensity, the program unfolds as a continuous journey — inviting the audience into a space of close listening and shared presence, where music becomes texture, movement, and dialogue.
**What's Happening?**
There will be live music with classical instruments playing.
During the performance the attendees are encouraged to create drawings of the performers or anything related to the sounds.
Drawing is optional. Attendees may just enjoy the music.
**What about the art materials?**
\- Bring your own art materials\. We allow pencils\, pens\,markers\, pastels or watercolors\.
OR
\- Grab a sketch kit at the venue for just **€3**

**Do I need to draw?**

**I can't draw. Can I still come?**
Yes, it is beginner's friendly.

Calm and Clear - Buddhist Meditation in English
Meet like-minded people, get authentic meditation instructions and hang out in our beautiful Buddhist meditation center in the west of Berlin!
The practice of meditation is a simple, yet profound practice that helps us to connect with ourselves and gives us tools to release experiences of distraction, agitation, and stress. In the Buddhist tradition, meditation is more than just a way to end the mind´s distraction - it is what helps us to bring our mind home to its true nature.
What better way to experience the colourful facets of meditation than with a group of like-minded people? Hence our open meditation sessions always have a social element as well - we like to have a tea and share about our meditation experiences, or whatever else we want to explore. There is also always the chance to ask questions to our experienced meditation instructors.
These sessions are held in English and open to everyone - complete beginners as well as those with more experience.
The sessions are every week on Friday at 17:00-18:30.
Introduction to Watercolours - Fridays Workshop
If you’ve ever wondered how to paint with watercolours but didn’t quite dare to start, this class is for you. **Begin the year with a relaxed and creative introduction to watercolour, specifically designed for beginners and curious creatives.**
In this workshop, we’ll explore the essentials of watercolour painting: how water and pigment interact, how transparency works, and how to control (and enjoy) the unexpected effects that water can create. **We’ll practice wet-on-wet techniques, layering washes, creating soft textures, and playful effects using salt, splashes, and lifting colour**. Most importantly, we’ll focus on letting go, experimenting, and building confidence with the medium.
No previous experience needed—just curiosity and a willingness to explore. This class is about learning the basics while enjoying the process and discovering your own creative flow.
###
**Fridays 16 - 23 January** from 6:00 to 7:30 PM

Radical Empathy – Queer Storytelling for Connection
**Radical Empathy**
host by Neo Seefried
guest: Merten Legatz
event for **LGBTQIA+**
**[Free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/radical-empathy/w04-2026)**
This workshop series invites participants to explore how queer storytelling can hold, transform, and reimagine conflict – both personal and collective. In an intimate closed group of up to 30, we will create a space where differences are not erased but lived, opening up new ways of being connected.
Queer lives are shaped by contradictions – between belonging and exclusion, visibility and erasure, intimacy and alienation. Instead of suppressing them, this series invites us to hold, quarrel with, and even find joy in their friction.
**We will ask questions such as:**
• How can we live conflicts differently?
• What can we learn from one another about responding to tension with more than silence or aggression?
• What does queer experience teach us about the joy of irritation, the art of quarreling, the utopias of disagreement?
**Practices we’ll explore together:**
• Fishbowl-inspired storytelling: one story opens, others weave in.
• Embodied listening: holding difference through the body.
• Mindfulness & circle practices: slowing down, making space for complexity.
• Generative visioning: imagining queer futures shaped not by consensus but by shared vulnerability and empathy.
**Event Overview: Upcoming Guests and Dates:**
• Sunday, September 21, 2025: Mark Pertuis – Queer Mama
• Sunday, October 19, 2025: Mati Klitgard – gayconsentlab
• Sunday, November 30, 2025: TBC
• Friday, January 23, 2026: Merten Legatz – Lecturer at TU, specializing in queer worldmaking.
• Friday, February 13, 2026: Olympia Bukkakis – Drag performers and activists
**General information**
**Participant**: this workshop series is open to LGBTQIA+ people, with particular encouragement for those holding multiple marginalizations.
**Language**: Depending on the group’s needs, sessions will be held in German and/or English.
**Cost**: Free of charge, registration required.
🔵
In dieser Workshop-Reihe erforschen die Teilnehmenden, wie queeres Storytelling Konflikte halten, transformieren und neu imaginieren kann – persönlich wie kollektiv. Die Gruppe (max. 30 Personen) schafft einen intimen Raum, in dem Unterschiede nicht geglättet, sondern gelebt werden, und in dem neue Formen von Verbindung erprobt werden.
Queere Lebensrealitäten sind von Spannungen geprägt: zwischen Zugehörigkeit und Ausschluss, Sichtbarkeit und Auslöschung, Intimität und Fremdheit. Anstatt diese Widersprüche zu verdrängen, lädt diese Reihe dazu ein, sie zu halten, mit ihnen zu ringen – und Freude an ihrer Reibung zu finden.
**Im Fokus stehen Fragen wie:**
• Wie können wir Konflikte anders leben?
• Was können wir voneinander lernen, um Spannungen mit mehr als Schweigen oder Aggression zu begegnen?
• Welche queeren Perspektiven eröffnen Freude am Streit, die Kunst des Aneinanders und Utopien des Nicht-Einigseins?
**Praktiken, die wir gemeinsam erproben:**
• Storytelling im Fishbowl-Format: eine Geschichte entfaltet sich, andere Stimmen verweben sich.
• Verkörpertes Zuhören: Differenz durch den Körper halten.
• Achtsamkeits- und Kreispraktiken: Verlangsamung, Raum für Komplexität.
• Generative Visionen: queere Zukünfte denken – getragen von Verletzlichkeit und Empathie statt Konsens.
**Veranstaltungsübersicht: Kommende Gäste und Termine**
• Sonntag, 21. September 2025: Mark Pertuis – Queer Mama
• Sonntag, 19. Oktober 2025: Mati Klitgård – gayconsentlab
• Sonntag, 30. November 2025: Pansy – Let’s talk about sex and drugs
• Freitag, 23. Januar 2026: Olympia Bukkakis – Drag-Performer\*Innen und Aktivist\*Innen
• Freitag, 13. Februar 2026: Merten Legatz – Dozent an der TU, spezialisiert auf queer worldmaking.
**Hinweise**
**Teilnehmende:** Die Reihe richtet sich an queere Menschen (LGBTQIA+). Wir empfehlen insbesondere die Teilnahme von Menschen mit mehrfachen Marginalisierungen.
**Sprache:** Je nach Bedürfnissen der Gruppe auf Deutsch und/oder Englisch\*\*.\*\*
**Kosten:** kostenlos mit Anmeldung.
**Mit Unterstützung der Senatsverwaltung für Inneres und Sport – Landeskommission Berlin gegen Gewalt**

Soundground: free improvised music workshop
**A place to meet sound, without maps**
Facilitated by **Vesti Gium (they/them)**
Everyone enters as they are.
No score. No threshold of skill.
We follow the room, moment by moment—
listening, nudging, letting the music find itself.
A breath, a shoelace, a laugh, a footstep—
each carries weight.
Silence is welcomed; noise is celebrated.
There are no wrong directions here.
We practise a listening that reaches outward and inward:
to ourselves, to one another, to the space we shape together.
That is where the music begins.
* 🌀 Bring a voice, an object, an instrument, a movement—or nothing at all.
* ✨ **Priority given to FLINTA folks and people with migration background.**
* 🎧 No experience needed. Curiosity is enough.
* 📍 Berlin – \[theodorstraße 5,12099]
* 🗓 Every Saturday 12:00
* 📬 DM or email **[vestigium.impro@gmail.com](mailto:vestigium.impro@gmail.com)** to join
Come make sound—come be heard.
Mental Health Discussion Circle
Life gets heavy sometimes — and we believe no one should carry that weight alone.
This discussion circle is a supportive space where we gather to speak openly about our struggles, mental health journeys, and personal challenges — without fear of judgment. Whether you’re facing anxiety, burnout, grief, or just feeling lost, this is a time for real talk, real people, and real healing.
We’re not therapists or professionals — we’re humans navigating life, just like you. What we offer is empathy and understanding.
What to expect:
• Respectful conversations
• Listening without pressure to fix
• Optional prompts to get things flowing
• A calm, welcoming environment
Come as you are. You don’t need to have it all figured out.
The event takes place every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month and is donation based :)
2026 Kickoff - Discover MBTI @ Castle Mitte
Hi everyone, join us on Sunday, January 25th, at Castle Mitte for a fun afternoon to connect and discuss MBTI personality, psychology and other interesting topics. Looking forward to seeing you there!
Take a test to learn your type:
https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test
https://sakinorva.net/functions
Some basic info on functions and type:
https://www.verywellmind.com/the-myers-briggs-type-indicator-2795583
https://www.truity.com/blog/beginners-guide-understanding-mbti-cognitive-functions
Our group aims to bring together people who are interested in self-development and self-improvement using MBTI and cognitive functions, in order to learn more about the theory and share our experiences with it. Another reason for this meetup is to meet people with whom you might potentially get along really well based on your type. This can lead to meaningful connections :)
Although the meetup is geared towards people who are interested in learning about MBTI theory and using it to improve their lives, our conversations aren’t only about that! We talk about anything and everything. So it's more like a regular social meetup with the aim of avoiding small talk :)

Flow is a state of being… an experience when you allow yourself to be 100% fully engaged in the present moment in a feedback loop between clarity and satisfaction. It is an undeniable sensation where things seem to be more effortless, pleasurable, in sync, and you can easily sense a connection with something greater than yourself; this is what we will create…:
• a connected and mindful meditation where it is possible to blissfully surf the cutting edge of the present moment together…
• a game where it’s possible to feel excited and calm in the same moment, and everyone can win as much as they like…
Scott Bolden, founder of Das Baumhaus Berlin will share some very easy, practical and effective methods developed during the last 12 years of facilitating these sessions. Within 20 minutes participants learn to use the common sound space to create resonance in the form of improvisational music where it is quite common to experience some real flow moments… All of the session is done with eyes closed to avoid visual distractions and keep focus on the co-created sound space.
• no experience with meditation or music is needed to participate and enjoy
Entrance at the door: €20

Experience Connection beyond surface level - Authentic Relating Event Berlin
### Experience Connection beyond surface level - Authentic Relating Event Berlin
🕓 **Date & Time**: Saturdays, 16:00-18:00
📍 **Location**: near Tierpark or Betriebsbahnhof Rummelsburg
🎟 **Cost**: Donation based
👤 **Participants:** 4-12
***
### **Event Description:**
**Surface-level-conversation, anonymity and the feeling of being separated.**
We live in the age of digital connection, but surveys show that **people feel more lonely than ever.**
I think what we need is a regular practice that doesn't need us to be on the same side, to feel connected. A practice where we can be ourselves and experience the healing effects of co-regulation and belonging, through true presence and vulnerability.
A practice like **Authentic Relating.**
Every Saturday (with some exceptions) I host Authentic Relating and Connection Circles in our space for people to experience this practice.
It involves:
* Listening with presence (instead of fixing or judging)
* Speaking from your truth (without over-explaining or apologizing)
* Feeling seen — and allowing that to be enough
You'll be guided through a smooth entry meditation, gentle relational games and reflection exercises which encourage you drop the armor as much as you feel safe with, slow down, and connect on a deeper level — with yourself and others.
***
### ✨ The Agreements:
* **Honor and respect yourself** \- that means stay true to what you want and need and care for yourself\. Only go as deep as you want and feel safe with\. you don’t have to open up to everyone\. You might be unified consciousness infinitely connected to everything\, but that doesn’t mean you’re not a self too\.
* **Lean into the edge** \- Don’t go all in\. But don’t cotton\-coat either\. Growth in connection happens at the edge\. And that can be a little uncomfortable sometimes\. Try to explore what fits for you\.
* **Honor and respect others as much as yourself** \- accept and respect boundaries\, practice giving a loving no and commit to connection\.
* **Check your assumptions** \- We all naturally build categories and throw our experiences into these\. Be aware of that and don't let prejudice influence the chance of connection\.
* **Confidentiality by request** \- Nothing can be taken for granted\, unless you ask for it\. You want things to stay confidential? Ask for it\.
* **Keep it slow and be present** \- You don’t need to rush and push through\. It's never to slow\, so better breathe one more time\, than one too less\. Stay with how you feel in the moment and keep it safe and slow\.
* **Stay curious** \- You’ve ever seen a child curiously exploring it’s environment? Children have this innate sense of awe and curiosity\, because they don’t have categories\. Try to tap into the "not\-knowing" curiosity and watch your relational practice transform\.
***
**Disclaimer:**
* **This is no place to perform**. You don't need to be someone to deserve connection.
* **This is not a place for dating or making friends**. The connection, intimacy and trust you'll experience, might seem more real than everything you know and you are invited to connect afterwards. But this space is for the experience of deep connection. So no hard feelings if someone just wants that.
* **This isn't therapy and it doesn't substitute it either**. If you have serious mental health issues you are welcome, and this experienc might also be helpful and feel healing, but it can't substitute the safe and professional environment of therapy. Although the host is trained in holding spaces and dealing with difficult states and stories, the participants aren't. Just keep that in mind.

In-Person Buddhist Meditation and Psychology Group
This group is for anyone who wants to explore Buddhist meditation in a relaxed and supportive setting. Each session includes a short meditation, a simple teaching from Buddhist psychology, and an open discussion about how these ideas show up in everyday life. While our foundation is Buddhist practice, we love weaving in wisdom from other traditions whenever it helps us grow, find peace, and support each other. Members of our community come from many different backgrounds, and you do not need to consider yourself a Buddhist to attend. All are welcome.
The session runs from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m., with doors open from 6:30 to 9:00. Come early or stay after if you’d like to enjoy some quiet reflection or casual conversation with the community.
On the first Wednesday of each month, we share a potluck meal. Bring a dish if you’d like, but the most important thing you can bring is yourself. We look forward to seeing you!

Join us for another optional writing session! Feel free to bring a project you're already working on or start something new with us.
If anything interesting comes up while you're writing, you can share it with the group, but no pressure!
Energizing Walk for Busy People!
Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy the weather! We meet Saturdays at 10am, halfway between the Reston *Container Store* and *Not Your Average Joes* (by the metal benches), leaving no later than 10:05.
Every week, rain or shine, we start by walking along the Green Trail to reach Lake Anne Community Center. Once there, we pause for water/bio (often staying a few minutes extra from April-November, due to the local Farmer's Market), and then we circle Lake Anne and head back to our starting point. It's roughly 3-4 miles and takes about an hour and a half.
Afterwards, some members will often head to *Not Your Average Joes* or another local restaurant for a quick drink/meal before tackling the day.
This event is open to all ages and fitness levels. Dogs are welcome, and we recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll walk rain or shine. Also, feel free to bring a friend!
By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.
