Pretty Deadly Self Defense (Susie Kahlich, Founder)

“Sustainability Starts In You”

Sat 29.08.2020 // 3 - 4pm

Women and disadvantaged members of communities spend much of their time and energy strategizing how to stay safe and for basic survival. We'd like to show how learning to trust your body empowers you to refocus that energy into building stronger communities, realizing dreams, building a better world. 

I’m happy to do a demonstration/free open mini-workshop and show how learning self defense techniques can be joyful and fun! 

 

The Ambeessadors (Steve Rogenstein, Founder)

Educational Pollinators' Garden

Sat 29. Aug // 3 - 4 pm / 4 - 5 pm / 5 - 6 pm 
Sun 30. Aug // 3 - 4 pm / 4 - 5 pm / 5 - 6 pm 

Pollinators are directly responsible for 1/3 of every bite of food we eat. More importantly, they co-created and sustain the lush biodiversity that blankets our landscapes in velvety greens and vibrant colors. For millions of years they have helped trees and flowers and fruits and vegetables to reproduce, which in turn provide nourishment, medicine, shelter, and more for Earth's creatures big and small.

There are more than 200,000 pollinators on the planet: from bees and butterflies to birds and bats, and countless others. Of these, most people know about Apis mellifera, the European honey bee. But did you know that in Germany, we have more than 565 other bee species? Some of them live right here in this garden. 

Welcome to this Educational Pollinators' Garden, a sanctuary where they can feast, build homes, and be admired — and protected — by people like you.

We are happy to share our story, and to get inspired by other people and projects. 

Distinct Inside (Pawel Jankiewicz, Michael Hazell // Experts on the Moabit's Poetics)

Urban Moods

Sat., 29.08.2020 // 6 - 7 pm
Sun., 30.08.2020 // 6 - 7 pm

Moabit is also a breeding ground for moods. Moods that carry futural aspects, and which give us a sense of personal presence - of something that demands renewed articulations. This sci-fi sounding of Moabit is a task we undertook, and the zine-series "Distinct Inside" is our instrument to codify our findings.
