THE Subbotnik project

THE Subbotnik project

At Subbotnik, all volunteers and full-time staff organize daily operations and make decisions together on an equal footing. To this end, we meet every week for an open plenary session. Anyone who is already active or wants to become active is invited to attend. Almost everything that concerns Subbotnik as a whole is discussed here: events, new projects and construction and structural issues relating to the house and grounds. Of course, there are also smaller subgroups with their own plenums/meetings: for example, the cafeteria collective, the Küfa cooking crew(s), the brunch crew and various construction working groups

There are many ways to participate in the Subbotnik: In the organization of our own events, the realization of artistic, craft or content-related projects, in the support in our cafeteria or pub, the culinary supply of bands, our "Volxküche" on Wednesdays or the preparation of the brunch once a month, in construction projects or cleaning campaigns and much more.

Theory Festival Canteen

Theory Festival Canteen

Theory and festival? Welcome to intoxication and theory in the same place, walk into the ivory tower with a disco gully (?). Since 2018, we have been organizing the Kantine in August in cooperation with WkB e.V. One week is dedicated to the examination of a thinker or a topic: in 2018 we dealt with the theories of Karl Marx, in 2019 those of Rosa Luxemburg, and in 2020 Walter Benjamin's ideas were taken apart. In addition to theoretical events, there is always a cultural program with scenic readings, plays or concerts and a practical part: screen printing, open discussions, a reading stage and much more. The outdoor area of the Subbotnik offers plenty of space to exchange ideas, relax or study the many information materials. There is also a childcare/kid space. The Kantine team is always happy to welcome new supporters for the planning and realization of the festival.

The next canteen will be dedicated to feminist utopias: "This year, we are no longer focusing exclusively on the life and work of a single person. Instead, we will be looking at various facets and historical contexts of feminist utopias, based on the work of Christine de Pizan*."
