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.

This week we are discussing **Christopher Isherwood:** The Berlin Stories. Update 13.6.26: Please note that at today's meeting, we decided to focus only on the first novel from *Berlin Stories*, *Mr. Norris Changes Trains*. The second part will be back on the voting list and can be discussed in the near future. Update 24.06.26: I don't think we've ever had to update a meeting invitation before, and now here we are with the second update for the same one! Because of the intense heat, we're exceptionally meeting in the lounge of the Motel One on Prinzenstraße (right by the Moritzplatz U-Bahn station). They have air conditioning there! We look forward to seeing you! If you have book suggestions, would like to vote on our next reads, or join us for additional activities, please ask someone at the meeting to add you to our WhatsApp group. Just a heads up: **The cafe only accepts card payments for amounts over €10**, so you may want to bring some cash for smaller orders. **Also, if you're unable to attend, please update your RSVP so that someone from the waiting list can take your spot.**

This workshop offers more than a class—it is a hands-on cultural experience rooted in patience, precision, and ancestral knowledge. Learn the fundamentals of Cherokee double-wall basket construction, a technique known for its strength, balance, and visual depth. This style creates two walls woven simultaneously, resulting in a seamless, durable basket that holds both function and story. Each kit thoughtfully includes pre-soaked and hand-dyed reed, core weaving materials, and guidance through every step of the process. You’ll learn proper starts, shaping, tension control, and how the inner and outer walls work together as one structure. Designed to be accessible for beginners and deeply satisfying for experienced weavers, this workshop emphasizes respect for materials, intentional making, and the rhythm of the hands. With proper supervision, older children and teens may participate, making this an excellent intergenerational learning experience. ***PLEASE NOTE: There are two sessions. A morning session from 9 a.m.—1 p.m. & 2—6 p.m. Click the registration link and select one class.** * A**ddress:** Octagon Earthworks, 125 N. 33rd St., Newark, OH 43055 - UNESCO World Heritage Site * **Hours:** * **Morning Session: 9 a.m.—1 p.m.;** * **Afternoon Session: 2—6 p.m.** * A**dmission :** Ohio History Connection Members - $130, Nonmembers - $140 * Click here to register and pay https://www.ohiohistory.org/events/double-wall-basket-weaving-workshop-2/ At this workshop: • Learn an authentic Cherokee double-wall weaving technique • Encourages mindfulness, focus, and problem-solving • A meaningful alternative to mass-produced crafts • Each basket is completely one-of-a-kind • Ideal for cultural education, art practice, and heirloom making Whether you’re reconnecting with tradition, learning a new skill, or creating something meant to last, this workshop is an invitation to slow down, weave with intention, and carry knowledge forward—one row at a time. This workshop is led by Renata Cauthon, a Cherokee artist and enrolled citizen of the Cherokee Nation, and one of the few IACB-listed Cherokee artists in Ohio. Beginning her professional art career in 2023, Renata has participated in several exhibitions across the country, including juried art shows. Her work is featured in her tribe’s official gift shop as well as several museum shops, blending traditional Cherokee design with contemporary storytelling to explore identity, resilience, and cultural continuity. The 2025 Reach Indigenous Advocacy Indigenous Advocate of the Year has worked tirelessly to provide access to Cherokee culture in Ohio through partnerships like her work with Fort Ancient Earthworks & Nature Preserve — part of the UNESCO-listed Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks. Since 2024, Renata has led hands-on workshops at Fort Ancient, giving visitors the opportunity to experience Cherokee traditions as living, evolving practices. She is honored to share Cherokee cultural knowledge, inspire understanding of Ohio’s Indigenous history, and invite visitors to explore and engage with her art.
