đž Photo Walk & Poetry in the Park đżđ â Social Butterfly Club đŠ
After a lovely first Poetry in the Park gathering in BĂŒrgerpark Pankow, weâre bringing the idea into a second round â this time with a photographic twist.
Join us for a spring afternoon around Schloss Charlottenburg where photography and poetry meet.
Bring a poem you love â or one you wrote â and weâll begin by reading a few poems together.
Then weâll set out for a gentle 30 minute photo walk through the park, capturing details that catch our attention: blossoms, reflections, statues, hidden corners, fleeting scenes.
Using the images we gather as inspiration, weâll meet again on picnic blankets to write short poems from guided prompts and share them in an informal circle.
No photography skills needed.
No poetry experience required.
Just curiosity, observation, and a bit of spring magic.
Bring:
* A poem to share (optional)
* A journal + pen
* Your phone or camera
* A picnic blanket
Duration: approx. 2 hours.

Das Spiel beginnt pĂŒnktlich um 11:30 Uhr.

Silent Reading Club
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)
- â Silent reading (~1 hour)
- â Discussion (~30-40 minutes)
- â 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 â the event is donation based. All funds support the Offenes Wohnzimmer.
Easy 5k with RCB
Sunday mornings are for easy 5k's! Join us on our regular Sunday runs. This run is for EVERYBODY.
We created RCB with the intention of connecting runners/people with each other. We know how hard it is to meet new friends in a city full of people. With RCB we want to make that easier. Every Sunday we will meet for a easy 5 kilometers (pace vary's according to people present), with a nice coffee and some socialising afterwards. We believe that running can be much more than performance or pace.
Meet-up is at Maxway Coffee, Katharina-Paulus-StraĂe 2 at 11am. Hopefully see you there :)
