Solidarity with Hambacher Forest!
Oct 6 @ 15:00 – 17:00

Event in solidarity with the movement in Hambacher Forest.

Since 2012, Hambach Forest has been a political standpoint for environmentalists who are protesting against the German energy company RWE because of the open-pit lignite mine situated on the site. Hambacher Forest has become a symbol of resistance, of environmentalists´fight against coal, and of alternative ways of living.

The start of October marks the start of the annual cutting season – the time between October and February during which RWE has permission to clear the forest. Since September 13, RWE is evicting the tree houses in the forest. Mass actions will take place on the 6th of October as well as a long planned action of civial disobedience on the 25th to the 29th of October.

It’s time to take action! Come together in solidarity with the movement.The aim of this in event is, therefore, to come together in solidarity with the demonstration “Save the forest! Stop coal!” taking place on the same day. We will offer information on the history of the movement and recent developments. We will meet and draw and take a picture to express our solidarity with he activists in Hambacher Forest. We might want to write letters to the actistivst in prison. We can meet and share our thoughts and discuss lines of action.

This event will take place in English and/or Icelandic.

 

The building is currently not wheelchair accessible, unfortunately.

There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door), and the washrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building).
Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.

An independently organised event. Please contact the organiser if you’d prefer meeting downstairs rather than upstairs!

Accessibility:

Andrými is at Bergþórugata 20.
(The entrance is by Vitastígur)

The building is currently not wheelchair accessible, unfortunately, but it is our top priority to make it so. There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door). The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building).

Ljósmyndakvöld // Photography gathering
Dec 20 @ 19:00 – 21:00

We would love you to join our first beginners and confirmed photographers gathering on Tuesdays 20th evening.
The idea is to have a place where photographers (analog and digital) can share their knowledge/work once a month with a bunch of other camera lovers.

For the ones interested, we will have a short workshop starting on 7pm explaining basics, feel free to bring your camera! In the meanwhile, the ones who already know how to use their cameras are welcome to gather in another room and talk about what they would like to see happening in the next events.

Let’s talk about it: communication in non-monogamous relationships
Jan 11 @ 19:00 – 22:00

Weather you’re monogamous or not, super-experienced or just heard about polyamory/non-monogamy, communication can be one of the biggest issues in a relationship, so let’s talk about how we talk (or, too often, don’t talk enough). I’ll be presenting some communication approaches and tools, as well as how to develop better communication skills. I would like to focus on how we communicate especially in very intense emotional times, and some of the most common pitfalls that occur there.

This is a facilitated discussion, not a presentation, so you are kindly invited to participate and share as much or as little as you’d like from your experience. Just listening is also ok. Because the topic is so personal, I highly encourage a policy of what is shared in this event stays in the event.

Discussion will be in English, with consideration for non-native English speakers.
Facilitator has no formal training in related fields, just personal experience and determination to develop more ethical and sustainable ways of relating.
