Vom Busch in die Faust - Zwei Häuser, ein Spaziergang, viele Einblicke
In the organizer's words:
At first glance, the Faust Cultural Center and the Wilhelm Busch Museum seem to be doing very different things. But just a few hundred meters apart, to the left and right of the Leine, the two neighbouring cultural institutions have more in common than you might think.
This double tour begins with an insight into the current Busch exhibition Ach was. 103 years of Loriot, the history of the museum and its current work. Caricatures, artistic freedom and a critical view of society play key roles here. The second part on the grounds of the Faust cultural center is about culture, diversity and living together, but also about the courage to persevere. Doors open to special areas of the large building complex and the history of the former bedspring factory is also discussed.
How have the two cultural venues developed in terms of construction and content? How are the two buildings doing and how well are they being defended? What unites the two cultural institutions and where are the exciting differences?
There is time for questions and good discussions not only on the tours themselves, but also on the walk from one location to the other, through the Georgengarten and across the connecting Sleeping Beauty Bridge. The tour ends at the new Café Lieschen in the Faust. It's a great place to continue chatting over a drink or two.
