Inner Landscape
This Wednesday June 4th, we slow down, pick up a brush, and let water and colour lead the way.
In Inner Landscape we explore with the wet-on-wet watercolour technique - Where the paint moves freely, forms appear withought forcing, and something true find its way onto the paper. It is less about making something beautiful and more about listening to what is already there inside you.
No experience needed.

8-9pm
Sirens for Silence - performance
Sirens for Silence is an ensemble currently based in India, creating meditative experiences for
listeners in improvised settings using introspective sound and movement.
Our journey has led us to pose some essential questions:
If words were stripped away, what truths would we wish to convey? What drives that desire to
express and how can we express it?
The concert with this music lasts around 45-60 minutes and is unconventional with the intention of
creating a surreal, dream-like atmosphere, yet being deeply rooted in an almost devotional presence.

How I personally mourn these two, through music and dance, and how being away from my mutual friends with Soroush affected my process of mourning, because all of us had to flee Tehran to smaller cities, divided by the bombs."

University of Tiny Moments: Eco-anxiety through the Drama triangle
Perpetrator of climate change? Savior of the earth? a look at Eco-anxiety through the Karpman triangle
What is your emotional relationship to the suffering of the earth? How do you feel when confronted with its current situation? We will take a look at these questions through the lens of the Karpman triangle, also known as Drama Triangle. It is a relational framework that maps instances in three categories: the victim, the savior and the perpetrator (Retter, Tëter, Opfer).
While we start our exploration with words, we will continue by using movement and voice to explore how we may sometimes act out one or several of these archetypes.
For example, "how does it feel in my body to be the victim of climate change?"
After an embodied exploration and dialog, we will dream and share new ways of relating to the earth.
Warning: if you are not currently comfortable exploring deeper emotions and embodiment, this might not be your space for now.

Reimagining Solidarity with Transformative Solidarity
A 90-min facilitated discussion space for learning different ways to create systemic change. During these times, many of us wonder how to build stronger solidarity with wider communities, and with those around us with different positionalities.
The Transformative Solidarity process works with you-- like, the literal uniqueness of you. Without you, without us, this process is just a bunch of pretty ideas. But together we can push for deep change.
Transformative Solidarity asks us to show up differently, challenging the status quo of our lives and movements. It only works as far as you're willing to engage. And it is designed to meet us where we are and encourage and push us in the ways we choose. It is a framework to hold us as we move toward who we want to be, striving for a just and sustainable world that honours its magic and brilliance.
- Transformative Solidarity is witnessing injustice and responding to it, in any situation -
(if there are at least three participants, we can play a specially designed card game!)

Manyworld DIY: updates from antifascist US comrades
In September 2025, the US State Department designated Antifa a “terrorist organization” as part of a larger program of repression against the left. In the US, the last decade has seen antifascism go from a relatively unknown social movement, to the subject of widespread controversy and paranoia.
Join us for an evening with an American comrade who will discuss the history of antifascism in the US, and demystify the rhetoric surrounding the movement. We will talk about what social factors have led to the present political moment, and how the current regime of state repression is affecting the left in the US and abroad.
