🔮The Witch‘s Cabinet of Curiosities Authentic ritual objects, hear their story, touch their energy **22nd of April at 8pm** An interactive witchy show & tell with Marc Wilke 🧙🏻‍♂️ You’ve seen them on altars, behind glass, in books and movies. But when was the last time you really held a magickal object in your hands and felt something? If you’ve ever wondered whether you're just “making it up”… if you've struggled to sense or trust the energy of your tools… or if you're simply curious about the kinds of objects real practitioners use…you’ll love this night. In this hands-on occult “show and tell,” Marc opens up his personal collection of spiritual objects and artefacts. Each one has a story, a presence and a pulse. These include: \- charged talismans \- enlivened statues \- Christian Relics \- haunted objects \- séance artefacts \- rare and energized ritual tools \- unassuming objects found him\! Most of these are objects you’d never get to touch. Only see: behind museum glass or locked in someone’s temple. But this evening, you’ll (safely!) hold them. Sense them. Pass them around. Feel what’s possible. And maybe… spark new questions about what calls to you and what wants to work with you. Join Marc Wilke, Europe‘s youngest séance medium and a spirit worker with over a decade of experience for a fascinating exploration of energies and physically manifested magick. Doors open at 7:30PM. After the event you’ll have the chance to purchase short 1:1 Tarot consultations with Marc to ask him your personal questions and get inspiring new insights. (Until 10 pm) Reserve your spot now! Spontaneous attendance is possible but reservations will be prioritised. **Donation-based sliding scale: 10-25 €** Location: Suspiria Bar Bergmannstr. 104, PLZ 10961

A playful creative workshop where we turn everyday materials and old clothes into something new. Each week we explore a different idea: cutting, painting, experimenting with colours, or transforming old garments into fun new creations. Using simple materials and a lot of imagination, we discover how small changes can make something ordinary become something special again. No big experience is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to try. Some workshops only need scissors, others invite you to paint, experiment or invent your own designs. Bring something old that you would like to transform, wear clothes that can get messy, and come create with us! Every workshop is a little different — but creativity, playfulness and surprises are always included. Check every Wednesday which workshop is going on! donation based all ages are wellcome ! \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* Ein spielerischer Kreativ-Workshop, in dem wir Alltagsmaterialien und alte Kleidung in etwas Neues verwandeln. Jede Woche entdecken wir eine andere Idee: schneiden, malen, mit Farben experimentieren oder alte Kleidung in neue Lieblingsstücke verwandeln. Mit einfachen Materialien und viel Fantasie wird aus etwas Gewöhnlichem wieder etwas Besonderes. Vorkenntnisse sind nicht nötig — nur Neugier und Lust, etwas auszuprobieren. Manche Workshops brauchen nur eine Schere, andere laden zum Malen und Experimentieren ein. Bring etwas Altes mit, das du verwandeln möchtest, zieh Kleidung an, die auch mal schmutzig werden darf, und komm zum Kreativsein vorbei! Jede Woche ist anders — schau mittwochs vorbei und entdecke den aktuellen Workshop. auf Spendenbasis, ohne Anmeldung Alle Altersgruppen sind willkommen
