Alte Gießerei

In the location's words:

The Alte Gießerei is a non-profit association - a communally used, independent and self-managed workshop cooperative, a crazy idea from two brothers who were actually just looking for a place to build boats. It is an experiment, an idea and a refuge: over forty people from the fields of music, art, design, science and crafts work together in an old factory in Berlin-Lichtenberg. Spaces and resources are shared, know-how is exchanged and structures are designed together. With a democratic approach, we as a group try to create a place where people can express themselves creatively and find a home for their ideas. Whether you are an amateur carpenter or a professional sound engineer, everyone can find a place where they can realize their ideas without time pressure.
