The workshop aims to make space for collective questioning, listening, whilst sharing realities and possibilities. The format of the workshop will be split into three sections. The first will involve a grounding exercise and then we’ll move into section two, tuning into what brings aliveness into our being - inspired by consciousness raising groups, Lilli will ask questions to the group and invite the group to answer in a way that feels comfortable to them. Part 3 will be an opportunity to build upon our foundation, accessing personal, relational and communal knowledge by creating questions collectively.

The purpose of this workshop is to re-orient our bodies towards relational knowledge learnt through lived experience, connection and swelling with pleasure. The work is informed by the work of Audre Lorde, Adrienne Maree Brown and other great black and brown people in Lilli's life. Throughout the workshop all invitations to speak are optional and participants have the freedom to do what they need and stretch or move about.

Upcycled, Collaborative - Interactive Installation for Herself to surrender, share & create. I've completely surrendered to creativity since a year now, now I'm just Maysie making things! My main income comes from making big art installations out of recycled-natural materials for music festivals, then adding off-grid lighting to them, that's why I'd love to learn more on carpentry. I organize the Green Team for events too, so lots of understanding composting and recycling. If there's a full or new moon during the event, I'd like to make a little ritual for those who bleed, or used to, to check in, hold each other, be vulnerable, share whatever bubbles up. workshop on making art out of waste, which would look like a collaborative project made out of our own waste, so materials needed are our dustbins, paints and glue, scissors, pens and whatever more craft supplies we'd get. 1.30 hour. 1 room or even better, outside.

My vision it is to make the power of initiative visible, to connect projects with each other and to bring their own visions and topics into a community that is open for new contributors and all the wonderful ideas that want to go out into the world. For this I would like to collectively design a gathering space that is deeply connected to the natural surroundings and where participants share their ideas: With connection to natural surroundings i mean: a special setting to have a magical view on the summer- sunrise or sunset, if possible. A place, where one can interact with little features like grass, rocks, flowers that do not seem of much interest at the first sight; a space that creates a certain (positive) feeling and one does not directly know where this comes from; a space that appeals to all senses. There should be the possibility of creating a certain intimacy between those who come together in this place

As a group of 15-20 people we create a mystical fairytale experience for participants from the broader group

The process can be split into three phases

1) Dreaming 2) Creating 3) Showing

1) Through movement and dream journeys we create a storyline, find our characters and explore where the characters live on the premises.

2) Each character or group will go and develop and work on their place in the story - a station

This can be creating a scene, a ritual, an installation or experience.

Each station will have a mystery, riddle, task or clue that the participants will have to solve by interacting, talking, dancing or singing with the characters.

We will be working with what the space and nature have to offer and come back together as a group and show ourr process, support each other and tie all ends together

3) During the grand showcase participants go on the treasure hunt, meet characters, get taken to weird places, and as they interact, and solve the riddles the whole story unfolds and the participants get more and more involved.

In the end all participants and characters will come together in a grand finale.

Timing: ideally this a 7-9day project (but can be shortened), 1-2 days of dreaming and coming up with a story: 2x2h workshops each day of being together as a group and then free time to research, then 3-5 days of finding characters, creating the stations: 1,5h of group in the mornign and evening, rest of the day free time to research, build, join other happenings and get inspired, 1-2 days finishing touches and showcasing it. Each Treasure Hunt is about 1,5-2h long

Seeking: Writers; We need participants that want to develop the storyline and characters, create and act in a station of the treasure hunt and generally want to experiment with creating an immersive theatre experience together.

If you could send a message to the future, what would it be? In light of all our crises, what would a deliberate and performative method of communication with futures peoples look like?

You are invited to take part in a multi-discipline collaborative performance project to produce a time capsule for future generations. The time capsule will offer a variety of mediums and disciplines because we don't know what future peoples will be able to understand; analogue, digital or written text . Will language be the same? Can we use and document performance to convey our emotions and messages?

A possible beautiful mixture of written text, recorded sound, live music, multimedia & live performance, film, stone painting and more in a performance installation that serves as a metaphorical "burying" of the time capsule. Can the time capsule go beyond metaphor? Can we find a way to encapsulate this performance experience for it to travel through the ages?

In this workshop, we’ll draw on the ideas of Meg-John Barker, a British writer, activist and psychologist. We’ll explore everyone’s ideas about consent - what it means, the situations we might need to think about it and how we can treat ourselves and others consensually. We’ll also think about the ways that European colonial societies are structured around power and domination rather than mutuality and consent. How do the non-consensual foundations of this wider culture shape our interactions with other people? We’ll think here about how intersections of power affect the risk that we’ll treat others or will be treated by them non-consensually.

We’ll try out some exercises to help us navigate different social and sexual situations. As part of this, we’ll share experiences of communication that has worked well for us, as well as ways to tune into how yes, no and maybe feels in our bodies.

We’ll conclude by thinking about how we can behave accountably in situations where we have treated another person non-consensually.

The workshop will not involve explicit discussion of sexual violence. It may involve physical touch where people feel comfortable to do so.

Failing, losing, forgetting, unmaking, undoing, unbecoming, not knowing may in fact offer more creative, more cooperative, more surprising ways of being in the world.” - Jack Halberstam. For this project, we encourage people to attend all three workshops which will happen on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons.

Workshop 1 - In this workshop we will engage in group discussion and free writing exercises. Drawing inspiration from Jack Halberstam’s “The Queer Art of Failure”, we will explore our personal experiences of the success / failure dichotomy. In what ways can embracing failure help free our creative expression? How could sharing our failures collectively help to build a more compassionate society? How do public performances of failure play a role of care in community? No previous writing skills necessary.
