Workshops
Sustainability, interconnectedness and interdependence really do concern everyone. That’s why we are still looking for workshops for young and old, which deal with these topics in different ways, with art, handicraft, conversations and much more…
In one to four hours, a participatory involvement in the Collaboratorium should be made possible for the festival visitors.
Theater for children
As a festival for all, we are looking for programs and theater for children. Every Sunday we would like to present a theater presentation for children.
Theater and performance
Plays and performances of various lengths and formats dealing with socio-political issues are welcome.
Music
For the Winterwerft we are looking for sounds, songs and music that sound in harmony with people and the environment. Concerts and acts can be held in our Mongolian yurt for a small audience or in the hall for larger audiences.
Mongolian yurt/ storytelling sessions
We are looking for new and old stories and would like to offer space for exchange with storytelling and discussion rounds.
Symposium
Convinced that art is socially relevant and that results, methods and processes should also have a place next to the stage, we would like to host a symposium every Thursday, providing space for intellectual output, practical discussions around sustainability and interesting insights into our collaboratory and the world of theater in relation to our environment.
Sitespecific Performances
This year with Winterwerft we also want to play in public spaces, with Sitespecific Acts, in parks, meadows and forests, in trees, on lanterns, public squares, streetcars and whatever you can think of….
Gallery
Paintings, sculptures, film, video art or a mix – visual arts are also welcome at this festival. Our gallery offers space for finished and still developing works of regional and national artists*. Artist residencies of up to three weeks are also available as part of the Collaboratory. You can find out more here.
Other
Anything that does not fit into any of the above categories will certainly find its place here.
