We meet and sketch each other in Berlin. This is just an art gym that we also exercise our social skills. Afterwards usually we go for lunch as a group. **How Does It Work?** This event is simple, we meet and sketch each other doing portraits. Most of the participants use pencils or watercolors. Main aim is to socialize while we draw. There will be plenty of time to talk and get to know each other. We have to mention that this event is suitable for all levels. Many have started to draw in our event actually. **Structure** A. Warmup Phase: We pose to each other for 1 minute. B. Main Phase: We pose to each other for 10 minutes. C. Showcase Phase: We show some of the drawings we did to each other. **Who We Are** Creative Sessions is an art events group located in Berlin. **Is it Free?** The event is free of charge. It is advisable to get a drink though. This is a cafe, we need to have at least half of the people on each table with a drink. They accept only cash and most hot drinks cost from 2.50 to 3.50. **How to help or donate?** The event is provided for free but many people help this be a regular thing. We also need people to volunteer and help for minor tasks like the serving of the drinks or cleaning up. Just send us a message. If you want to donate and keep this event from happening, via Paypal to the host (Miltos) : https://ko-fi.com/miltosthings/ **Art Materials?** Bring your own art materials. **Our Instagram Profile** Follow us on instagram @icreativesessions Use the hashtag #icreativesessions on your post description there to find out drawings from the event!

Kunstgewerbemuseum - A Visit to the Museum of Decorative Arts

Kunstgewerbemuseum - A Visit to the Museum of Decorative Arts

Sun, Sep 27, 12:00 PM
From Museum Sunday
4.8

This month, we'll be visiting the [Kunstgewerbemuseum](https://www.smb.museum/en/museums-institutions/kunstgewerbemuseum/collection-research/collection/) (Museum of Decorative Arts). "Decorative arts" is a broad term, encompassing furniture, objects, fashion, and interiors. The museum's collection is extremely diverse: from medieval sacred art to Baroque porcelain to twentieth-century fashion. As a person who is happy to stare at a beautifully designed cabinet for twenty minutes, I'm really excited for this one. (I promise I won't make you join me.) No pre-order needed, we'll get tickets at the venue.

**Open writing circle** For **LGBTQIA+** **Gast in diesem Monat:** **Manuel Irmey** **[Free with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/writing-circle/w38-2026)** **Multilingual Writing: Between Languages** In the writing workshop we will engage with different languages we have or have had contact with. Through a range of shorter exercises, we’ll get our writing flowing and try out approaches for how we can play with different languages, their particularities, and their commonalities. In the second part, each person will have time to work on their own longer text, building on the prompts from the first part. The workshop facilitation offers support on request with questions or blocks. To close, we will come together for a — of course voluntary — reading and feedback round. **About the Open Writing Circle** Our monthly Open Writing Circle invites people with all levels of writing experience to explore their creativity and imagination. In each session, one of Berlin’s many exceptional writers, poets, artists, or curators will create a vibrant and collective learning experience. Whether you’re interested in fiction, memoir, non-fiction, or poetry, this supportive space encourages you to uncover the words within you. We’ll draw upon techniques used in writing workshops to unleash your innate talent in a collaborative environment that will allow for a dynamic exchange of ideas and insights. This workshop aims to create an affirming, playful and empowering space for queer people to explore, express and celebrate their identities as well as to provide a platform for the stories of the LGBTQIA+ community to be shared, heard and valued. *\*\* This event is part of the we are village program ‘****[Belonging versus Lonelliness](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness)****‘, with the support of the* ***[LADS](https://www.berlin.de/sen/lads/en/)****.* *Learn more about the program [here](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness).* 🔵 **Open writing circle** Fur **LGTBQIA+** **Gast in diesem Monat: Manuel Irmey** **[Kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/writing-circle/w38-2026)** I**Mehrsprachig schreiben: Zwischen den Sprachen** Im Schreibworkshop werden wir uns mit verschiedenen Sprachen, mit denen wir Kontakt haben oder hatten, beschäftigen. Im Ersten Teil des Workshops machen wir verschiedene kürzere Übungen um unser Schreiben zum Flliessen zu bringen, und um verschiedene Ansätze auszuprobieren, wie wir mit verschiedenen Sprachen, ihren Eigenarten und ihren Gemeinsamkeiten spielen können. Im zweiten Teil des Workshops hat jede Person Zeit, aufbauend auf den Impulsen aus dem ersten Teil, an einem eigenen, längeren Text zu arbeiten. Die Workshopleitung unterstützt hierbei auf Wunsch bei Fragen oder Blockaden. Am Ende des Workshops kommen wir für eine – natürlich freiwillige – Vorlese- und Feedbackrunde zusammen. **Worte und Geschichten wohnen in uns allen und warten darauf, entdeckt zu werden.** Unser monatlicher offener Schreibkreis lädt Menschen mit allen Erfahrungsstufen im Schreiben ein, ihre Kreativität und Fantasie zu erforschen.In jeder Sitzung wird eine der vielen außergewöhnlichen schreibenden, dichtenden oder künstlerisch tätigen Personen Berlins ein lebendiges und kollektives Lernerlebnis gestalten. Ob du dich für Fiktion, Memoiren, Sachbücher oder Poesie interessierst, dieser unterstützende Raum ermutigt dich, die Worte in deinem Inneren zu entdecken. Wir werden Techniken aus Schreibworkshops nutzen, um dein angeborenes Talent in einer kollaborativen Umgebung zu entfesseln, die einen dynamischen Austausch von Ideen und Einsichten ermöglicht. Dieser Workshop zielt darauf ab, einen bestärkenden, spielerischen und ermächtigenden Raum für queere Menschen zu schaffen, um ihre Identitäten zu erforschen, auszudrücken und zu feiern, sowie eine Plattform zu bieten, auf der die Geschichten der LGBTQIA+-Gemeinschaft geteilt, gehört und wertgeschätzt werden können. *\*\* Diese Veranstaltung ist Teil unseres Programms ‘****[Gemeinsam statt einsam](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness)****‘, unterstützt von der* ***[LADS](https://www.berlin.de/sen/lads/en/)****.* *Erfahre mehr über das Programm [hier](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness).*
