Breaths and words: a writing workshop
Writing begins with the breath
The breath flows into the lungs
Blood carries the breath
From the lungs to the heart
The heart holds the pen
In your direction
You begin to write.
How can we resist with our imagination and translate the movements inside our heads in the company of breaths and words? In this writing workshop, we will accompany you through a restful journey of breathing and the wonders that can happen with our collective inhalation and exhalation.

Sex-Gender Dissidences for the defense of their territories
This workshop will focus in local experiences of Mayan sex-gender dissidences from Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico and their participation in struggles for the defense of their territories against megaprojects fund by national and international companies and governments, where the binary hetero-cis-patriarchal, colonial and capitalist system is still oppressing Mayan communities since over 500 years. The idea of ‚cuerp@-territorio‘ (body-territory) develop by the Mayan activist and sanadora (healer) Lorena Cabnal, will be also implemented to reflect about how the defense of our territories, nature, natural resources and all ways of life and not alive entities are crossing our migrant-diasporic-BIPOC bodies (cuerp@s) that also need to be protected and defense everywhere we are. Autobiographical tools will be implemented to create an open space of sharing experiences between all the participants.

Herbalism to Rest
Sat., September 14th, 17.00-19.00
Together we will focus on herbs that invoke us to rest, sedative and
non-sedative nervines that calm and sooth our nervous system. We want to
dedicate time to relate to these medicinal plants while being in touch
with our senses. We will take a look at how to prepare the herbs so that
they can express themselves in supporting us in our daily efforts to
disconnect and creating a rest promoting environment.
Please bring a clean jar with a lid as well as paper/notebook and pens
with you
*With Black QTIes we invite Black queer, trans* and inter people as well as
nonbinary folks

We are soooo excited to announce our next collaborative event!
In times that often demand our resilience and constant output, and times of radical change and uncertainty the need for rest and collective reimagining has never been more crucial. Together we as Gladt, Casa Kuá and LesMigraS would like you to join us for a weekend of connection, creativity, and community as we gather to explore the themes of rest, resistance, and the reimagining of our times and spaces. The weekend will consist of a collection of Workshops, discussions, meals together, as well as art and music. We look forward to having you there.
The communication will be mainly in english and german spoken language. Because of capacity limitations we can’t provide external interpreters. Translation will be organised as a shared task within the space. Many of the facilitators and organisers speak different languages (castellano, french, farsi, etc.). Do not forget to mention your language needs in the form so we can organise support. The space we are located in is wheelchair accessible and has floor guidance system (Bodenleitsystem). Let us know if there is further accessibility issues you’d need assistance with.
This is a sober event so please be respectful and mindful about the people and the space you will be sharing.
The space is not completely isolated so there is a possibility that non-queer non-BIPOC people can pass by but not be in the actual event.
Attendance is based on a negative Covid test before arrival. Fully vaccinated and boosted should also still get tested. We will provide extra Covid-19 measures for specific tasks.A mask should be worn when serving food.
