Following your own direction, your inner compass, feeling a connection to the world around you and at the same time offering resistance – without burning out – can be particularly difficult for marginalized people in our society. We are often too busy being allowed to exist and defending our right to exist. This is exhausting and can leave us feeling disoriented.
What else might it be like? Using methods from Somatic Art Practice and nature connection, we go on a search together.

Sliding Scale: 460 – 600 – 820€
Be creative and lean back – come to F*Art Week! Paint, draw, make pottery, print, carve, write, collage, move… try out different techniques, learn new things in a summery, appreciative atmosphere. The joy of doing and creating together takes centre stage, no previous artistic knowledge is required. Let perfectionist demands go with a breeze!
We (Carolina, Mika and Leno) provide the framework and give a few creative inputs, but above all there is plenty of space and time to immerse yourself in the creative process and explore the arising topics.
F*art week takes place in a self-managed community space. Delicious food is provided and we help set up, cover up, wash up and tidy up together. At the end, we clean the space together so that the next ones staying at GemSe can enjoy themselves!
The costs are on a sliding scale between €510 and €630 according to your own estimate (the costs include accommodation, meals, fees for the workshop leaders and the materials we will be working with). Participants are responsible for their own travelling expenses. You will receive a guide to the price scale by email after you have expressed your interest. If you can’t afford it, let us know – we’re sure to find a solution!

As the construction is very expensive, please support us on Startnext or share the link to the campaign:
NOTE: During this time, it cannot be used by larger groups. Individuals and smaller groups can still use our rooms depending on the construction phases. Just get in touch at gemse_buchen[at]riseup[dot]net
