Poetische Feinkost – Lesung & Verkostung im Heimathaven

In the organizer's words:

Poetic delicacies - reading & tasting at Heimathaven

An evening of literary delights with Benedikt Vermeer

Poetic delicacies is a literary evening for all those who not only want to hear texts, but also experience them - entertaining, accessible and accompanied by a small, fine tasting.

Together with the actor and speaker Benedikt Vermeer, an intimate literary salon will be created at Heimathaven:
Selected texts will be read, performed and commented on, accompanied by a curated tasting in 6 small courses - 3 drinks and 3 fine tasting snacks from the Heimathaven range, thematically matched to the respective evening.

What you can expect:

• an entertaining literary evening, even without prior knowledge

• Humor, zeitgeist and clever observations

• an accompanying tasting that rounds off the evening - not overrides it

• not a lecture, not school material - but listening, smiling, rediscovering

🕰 Duration: approx. 60-75 minutes
👥 S mall setting, very limited places
