WHO? 🩵🧡
Misfits Markets is a horizontally organised leftist collective of market vendors and have decided to band together to organise our own. We put a particular focus on accessibility & highlighting artists, crafts- and tradespeople who are otherwise underrepresented even within the queer market scene. We are all TIN* and disabled, and are working on including more transfem and BIPoC voices in our group. Queer (and particularly BIPoC, transfem, neurodivergent and/or disabled) vendors: if you want to be involved in future events, check out the open call in our bio or come by and speak with us!

One script, ten collaborators and 48 hours: a mixtape motion picture is being created!

“M.E.T.S.I; a fisherman’s friend”, written by Mmakgosi Kgabi in 2021, lays the basis for this challenge: 10 artists of diverse genres are given 48 hours to produce a mixtape motion picture. With complete artistic autonomy, they are supported by three film industry professionals to adapt some part of the script. Music donated by Little Prince Sigrid and lou drago.

QTI-Bee-PoC Workshop Series for QTIBIPoC (in English)

2/2: Bee History: Zine workshop

As it gets colder outside, the bees disappear from our everyday lives until next spring. But even when they are inactive, there is so much to learn from and about them! 

Join us for a cosy evening of crafting, where we learn about the history of bees and reflect on what we have in common with them. With these impulses, we will create zines using beekeeper’s journals and crafting materials.

Connecting with our plant and insect world can be a very empowering experience - however, as racialised people who are also queer, inter and/or trans, spaces in nature and related knowledge are not always (easily) accessible to us. This workshop series aims to spark an interest in the bees around us, and collectively gather and make visible to us the knowledge we already have.

For: QTIBIPOC – Black, Indigenous and People of Colour who are also Trans, Inter and/or Queer

Language: spoken English. 

Participants: There are up to 8 spaces available.

Registration: info@gladt.de

The space including toilets are wheelchair accessible.

Please come tested, otherwise we will also have COVID tests available on site. Please also come with a mask, and we will check in together what our needs are/what we are comfortable with in regards to this on the day.

There will be fidget toys and colouring books available. Each workshop includes a 15min break, and you are always welcome to take longer breaks if needed.

You can attend just one individual workshop or both. It is not necessary to have gone to the first workshop to attend the second.

1/2: Bee ID workshop

Many of us know that bees are important for the environment, but would you be able to tell a bee from a wasp? 

In this bee workshop with Nicky, you will learn how to identify the bees around you, why we need these pollinators, and how to help them. Weather permitting, we will go outside for around 30 minutes.
