Date Title Time
Thu 22.10Opening: Death Positive. Because Dying Happens

Death is a very lively companion. Sometimes quiet, sometimes loud, often unexpected and at times longed for. And yet we prefer to push it far away from us. This exhibition brings it right into the center – gently, confrontationally and with humour and raw honesty. For we all have to die. Free admission

Schritt für Schritt, Falte für Falte, entsteht ein Stern und dabei kommen wir in eine konzentriert-meditative Stimmung. Wer will, kann über das Leben sprechen oder über Erinnerungen, Abschiede oder über Verluste; wer will kann Abschiedsrituale teilen, oder Gedanken darüber, wie wir mit dem Fehlen eines Menschen umgehen und das, was uns dabei verbindet. Für Kinder und Erwachsene im Rahmen der Kinderkulturwoche
