Art Career Workshop
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.
This two-day intensive is aimed at artists ready to move from a hobbyist position to a professional artistic practice — developing a distinctive voice, a clear artistic mission, a market-aware presence, and a sustainable monetisation strategy through Jenia Yanes’ proprietary hybrid method.
## 21.02.2026 Strategic Foundations
* Strategic positioning
* Visual language
* Artistic identity & mission
## 28.02.2026 Growth & Sustainability
* Monetisation models for artists
* Institutional and independent growth strategies
During the workshops, participants will:
* Articulate their artistic position, mission, and core audience
* Develop a contextual strategy that bridges inner vision and the external art system
* Learn how to integrate galleries, personal branding, merchandise, and digital channels into one coherent strategy
* Navigate the post-AI art landscape of 2026, where authorship, narrative, and positioning outweigh technical craft
* Gain a clear understanding of how the contemporary art market functions — and their place within it
* Formulate an individual development strategy, including open calls, residencies, independent projects, and sustainable monetisation pathways
**Booking Details**
*Important Note: Please register directly with Jenia Yanes at [www.jeniayanes.com ](https://jeniayanes.com/products/artist-career-workshop)*

Agentic AI Engineering Lab (Tech Event, Sprint #2) - Make Agents Talk(A2A)
What if your AI agent could talk to other agents… without you in the middle? 👀
Welcome to **Sprint #2 of the Agentic AI Engineering Lab** — a hands-on playground for developers, tinkerers, and curious minds.
This time, we’re diving into the **[A2A (Agent-to-Agent) Protocol](https://a2a-protocol.org/)**, an emerging open standard designed to enable seamless communication and collaboration between autonomous AI agents.
We won’t just talk about it....We’ll build, experiment and break it. Join us to see what happens.
***
### 🧪 What We’ll Do
**10:00** — Quick round of introductions
**10:10** — Intro session: Understanding the A2A Protocol

***
Whenever you attend a meetup, the most common as well as first question you get is: "Where are you from?"
You probably heard this question a million times. Well, at least I did.
From my own experience of attending over 200 international meetups in various countries such as Germany, Japan, Australia and Thailand, I can tell you that asking for the name is a better approach.
“A person’s name is to that person, the sweetest, most important sound in any language.” - Dale Carnegie
If you really want to connect with like-minded people you should remember their name, but you don't have to remember every persons name you've talked you. Be picky about that, don't be me who can somehow remember everyones name easily. Don't tell yourself sth. like "I'm bad at remembering names." It's all about developing the habit of asking for a name and keep the conversation going on. Furthermore, you want to learn German or any other language. Learning the local language is crucial to connect with the locals and developing a true friendship. This can be accomplished with immersion. My goal is to inspire you to go out of your comfort zone and improve yourself each time you join this meetup.

IGNORANT DRAWING #3
Galerie Linger – Art, Books & Press
https://www.instagram.com/p/DU7i_JqDCD1/
Saturday, 21 February · 6-7:30 pm
Boppstraße 2, Souterrain links · Kreuzberg
sliding scale €10-20 · 1.5h · materials included
galerielinger@gmail.com
We’re looking for people interested in drawing as
a contemporary practice.
The sessions combine life drawing with discussion,
focusing on drawing beyond academic technique and classical representation.
After drawing from the model, we look at the works collectively and discuss how drawing functions today
– between representation, notation, performance,
and contemporary image culture.
The aim is to form a small group that returns regularly and develops a shared discourse around new ways of drawing.
////////////////////////////////////////////
Taking a cue from Ranciere’s “Ignorant Schoolamster”,
IGNORANT DRAWING begins from the suspension of the doxa: on what is a good drawing, or how to draw.
It’s not necessary to apply skill, memory, anatomy, expression, or composition in advance. Here, each line is taken as a proposal whose consequences may be accepted.
\# drawing what you do not yet understand
\# not correcting a line; continuing it
\# when a form appears\, it’s an accidental evidence
\# avoiding style; repeating procedures instead
\# writing beside the drawing when drawing stops
\# drawing the drawing
\# a drawing may become a score for another drawing
Exhibition of the drawings is part of the method.
Publication of the fragments is a drawing stretched wider.
FLOW meditation - a fun and expansive auditory experience
😌 **a FLOW Meditation is an active, fun & expansive shared auditory experience.**
💥 This month we have 2 dates
**Sat 21 Feb schedule**

🔥 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 over the last 13 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
€10 -30€ after the session ---> Pay for the value of your experience

Shamanic Breathwork 2 h Conscious Connected Breathwork (Psychedelic)
**Shamanic Conscious Connected Breathwork by** [STUDIO B](https://www.studio-bewusstseinserfahrungen.de/)
This group is dedicated to **Conscious Connected Breathwork**, a powerful somatic practice for deep emotional release (nervous system release). Intense states of awareness are possible.
Through **conscious, connected breathing**, rhythmic music, and guided facilitation, participants are invited to access deeper layers of awareness, release stored stress and emotions, and reconnect with their inner resources.
There are **no substances involved**. The work is grounded, body-based, and trauma-aware.
Price is only for the room.
### This group is for you if you want to:
* release stress, tension, and emotional blockages
* explore non-ordinary states of consciousness through breath
* experience clarity, emotional relief, and deep relaxation
### Each session typically includes:
* introduction and intention setting
* guided conscious connected breathwork
* music-supported journey
* integration and grounding

Beginners are welcome. Sessions are guided with care, structure, and clear boundaries.
This is a **safe, respectful space** for self-exploration, presence, and embodied awareness.
Sessions are held in English & German. German participants are very welcome.[ABOUT US STUDIO B](https://www.studio-bewusstseinserfahrungen.de/)
Sunday Tech Coffee Meetup
Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin.
We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.
Productive Sunday Morning - Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all work welcome)
Hey everyone!
I’m organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂
To ensure that we have both **socialising** AND **working**, we will be using the so called “Pomodoro” technique:
**50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks.
It’s an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).
Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background.
I (the host) speak English and German, so either is fine :-)
——————————————————-
AGENDA:
* **15min Intro**
* Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today
* **Pomodoro Session** (3x) - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...*
* ...**50min** of uninterrupted “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, no phones)
* ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc.
* Repeat
* Conclude and celebrate your progress
Share your progress, socialise and get to know others 😊
————
We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). The structured part will end at 2:30pm, but you're welcome to stay longer, go for lunch together, or leave earlier. See you there 🩵
**\*\*We'll reserve the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***
Chitta Walks - Awareness in Motion
Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease.
This walk is a simple reset.
We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment.
No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening.
If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk.
✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):**
* A short arrival and orientation
* A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation)
* One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress
* Optional reflection in pairs or small groups
* A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life
🚶**Who this is for:**
* Professionals, creatives, and people in transition.
* People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance.
* Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical.
* Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation.
🔔 **Practical notes:**
* Duration: 60-90 minutes
* Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing
* No prior experience needed
* Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused
🧭 **Facilitator:**
My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction.
🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?**
Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense.
Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world.
The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it.
🌿 **Possible effects:**
A calmer nervous system.
Clearer attention.
A felt sense of being more present in your body.
Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions.
A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city.
**Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**

Built Wrong, Shipped Abroad -An English stand-up solo by Ayush Kulshrestha
Stand-up — sharp, personal, and honest — about figuring yourself out when nothing around you feels stable either.
**(please click on the link to book seats meetup registerations dont count)**
For the past few years, Ayush has been joking about ADHD, mental health, cultural confusion, and the strange logic of trying to build a stable life with an unstable brain.
In Built Wrong, Shipped Abroad, he brings those threads together into his first full English solo hour.
This show dives into diagnosis, therapy, navigating the German system, dating in Berlin, career misfits, and trying to stay functional while Europe itself seems to move from one crisis to another.
If you enjoy comedy that goes beyond surface punchlines and isn’t afraid of uncomfortable truths, this one’s for you.
About the Comic
Ayush Kulshrestha has been performing stand-up since 2019 and runs Berlin’s ADHD-themed comedy night. After performing in Hindi and English across different cities, Built Wrong, Shipped Abroad marks his first full-length English solo in Berlin.

📅 Date: 22 February
🕖 Time: 7:00 PM (Doors 6:30 PM)

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.
