“Visible, connected, committed!” – Closing party

 Neighbourhoods are everywhere – we are right in the middle of it. With district walks, conversations in the green, creative workshops, exhibitions and much more.

Neighbours worked together, chatted and learned lots of interesting life stories. Probably in your neighbourhood too! To say thank you and to better connect all the people, initiatives and committed people, actors and partners on the ground that we had the pleasure of getting to know, we cordially invite you to join us:

Exhibition opening and closing party
“Dresden neighbourhoods – visible, networked, committed!”

Neighbours from all over Dresden have spent the whole year working together, talking and exchanging lots of experiences.To say thank you and to get to know each other even better, Kultur Aktiv e.V. and JKS Passage invite you to enjoy food and drink and show city views from the workshops, texts and pictures from and about Dresden’s neighbourhoods.

We look forward to a Neighbourhood Sunday with you!

Annett and Gennadi from the band Colorage will provide musical entertainment with tango and klezmer sounds. They will take us on a musical journey to the colourful south-east of Europe. With accordion and clarinet, they bring songs for listening, dreaming and dancing. Annett is a music teacher from Dresden. Gennadi comes from Kharkiv in the Ukraine and played in the orchestra there. Now he lives and plays in Dresden.

Printed material for take-away

The extensive Neighbourhoods brochure is also available in the exhibition room. Grab a copy and take it with you! You can browse through it and dive into the small oases of togetherness and the discoveries we made in Cotta, Gorbitz, Prohlis, Johannstadt and many other places. Some of you will certainly find yourself and your story in this booklet.

Exhibition until the end of the year

If you can’t make it to the vernissage, you still have the opportunity to visit the exhibition until the end of the year: opening hours are Monday to Friday, 10 am – 1 pm, as well as during all events in the JKS Passage and by prior arrangement. Admission is free of charge.

JKS Passage – more than just partner and host

The JKS location Passage in the leafy district of Gorbitz is undergoing an extensive process of change. The old familiar space with its long tradition as an event location is currently being expanded by new forms of togetherness and is to become a lively cultural and neighbourhood centre in the heart of the district. Currently, the Passage has a multifunctional hall with a stage and a variety of event technology, a foyer with space to set up a café, and an appealing outdoor area that will be used more in the warmer months – not least to make the adjacent Amalie-Dietrich-Platz as a whole a peaceful, lively place.
