🎲 Neurodivergent Board & Card Game Meetup 🎲

**Join us for an afternoon of board games/card games, connection, and fun!** Location: Zwischenraume, formerly Curious Fabrications https://maps.app.goo.gl/v8tCPcZugTmRq8HN8 Whether you're a seasoned player or completely new to playing games, you're welcome here. We’ll teach you some of our favorites, or you can bring your own game and introduce it to others. **📖 What to Expect** * We’re passionate about board games and excited to share them with you! * No experience needed - we'll decide spontaneously which games we'll play depending on the games you bring and then guide you through the rules of games. We are **happy to help you choose a game** that suits you best. Some games are cooperative, while others are competitive—so there’s something for everyone! If you'd like, bring your own board or card game! Just be prepared to explain the rules to new players. We'll also have an extra silent room for noise sensitive people since some games can be very loud. 🔊 Arriving late? No problem! You may be able to join a game right away or there might be a short wait. 📖 **Event Guidelines** ❤ **Be kind and respectful**—we’re creating a safe and welcoming space together. 🧩 **Bring anything that helps you feel comfortable** (noise-canceling headphones, fidget toys, etc.). ☕ Since we’re meeting at a café, **please support the venue by ordering a snack or drink. Outside drinks or snacks are not permitted.** 📖 **Limited Spots & RSVPs** To keep the event enjoyable for everyone, we have a limited number of spaces available. If you RSVP and can no longer make it, please update your RSVP as soon as possible so someone else can take your spot. This helps us plan games and ensure everyone has a great time! Come as you are and enjoy a space where you can have fun, experience games, and connect with other neurodivergent folks. **We can’t wait to meet you!**

Bring a Song: A Music Listening Night

**Please note that we invite people through different channels, so there are more attendees than you can see here :)** In The Discussion Experiment we usually meet to talk about relevant political, philosophical and personal topics, but sometimes we just want to have fun, therefore: What can we discover when we don’t just listen to music while doing something else, but as a group and in silence? What will catch our attention and how does the group setting change the experience? At this event, we’ll take some time to listen to different songs, let them have an effect on us, and share whatever we care to put out there. After each piece, we’ll take about five minutes to share our impressions. You can spontaneously suggest songs to listen to but don’t stress about choosing the „right“ song! From the most sophisticated masterpiece of music history to Aqua’s Barbie Girl, you can suggest whatever you are curious about that night. Or, in fact, you can just listen and not contribute actively, if that’s what you prefer. Join us, it will be fun. Anyone and everyone is welcome! **This is a paid event. Entry costs 5€ plus a fee that meetup charges.** It is free however for regular guests (if you have been to 2 or more events) and you are also very welcome to join for free, if you currently have to be careful with money. DM us in that case. **FAQ** ***What can I expect from the event?*** Each event is a an experiment so it’s difficult to predict exactly how it will play out. This time it is all about listening to music together in silence and then share impressions. If we have more people than time for songs, we’ll draw lots to decide who gets to suggest one. We want this to be a relaxed event. It’s not about picking out particularly unique or sophisticated songs to impress others. Any song you’re curious to hear the group’s thoughts on is good enough. ***Will the audio quality be amazing?*** No 🙂 It will be fine. We will stream the music and use ordinary speakers, so if you are a super duper hifi kind of person you might be disappointed. ***Do I have to speak? Do I have to suggest a song?*** No. It’s perfectly fine to just listen. You can decide for yourself at any time how active you want to be and will not be asked to speak. However, there might be a name round in the beginning. ***Who is this event for?*** This event is for anyone who is curious about it. We aim to create spaces where people of all ages, identities, and backgrounds feel welcome. You don’t need to prepare anything, have strong opinions, or be extroverted to take part. ***What’s the duration of the event?*** Each event lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours. Feel welcome to stay a bit longer to finish the snacks, chat with other participants, and deepen the conversation. ***Is the venue wheelchair accessible?*** The venue is on the ground floor and accessible with wheelchairs. However, there are unfortunately no wheelchair-accessible bathrooms! ***What is "The Discussion Experiment"*** The Discussion Experiment is an ongoing series of events through which we continuously test methods that foster more meaningful and inspiring group conversations. Among other things, we experiment with techniques that slow down discussions, improve clarity, and support participants in expressing their ideas more effectively. This event however is less about discussing and more about exploring music together. This event is co-organized by Kirstin Müller.

The project is run by Igor Don and Maria Scholze.

Männerkreis

Jeder Männerkreis ist anders. Die Menschen, die zusammenkommen, bringen ihre Fragen, Erfahrungen und Geschichten mit – und genau daraus entsteht der Abend. **Der Schwerpunkt dieses Abends wird noch festgelegt, oder entsteht aus dem Kontext** Das Thema gibt uns einen gemeinsamen Ausgangspunkt. Es öffnet einen Raum für Austausch, Reflexion und Begegnung. Manche sprechen viel, andere hören zunächst zu. Beides hat seinen Platz. Unser Kreis ist kein Seminar und keine Therapiegruppe. Er ist ein geschützter Raum, in dem Männer einander auf Augenhöhe begegnen, voneinander lernen und sich gegenseitig stärken können. Wir glauben, dass echte Verbindung entsteht, wenn Menschen sich trauen, ehrlich zu sein – mit sich selbst und miteinander. **Ablauf** * 19:00 Ankommen * 19:15 Beginn * ca. 21:15 Ende

Lebe deinen Traum

Was passiert an diesem Abend? Menschen sind verschieden: Manche werden durch große Träume motiviert, andere verunsichert. Andere laufen einem großen Traum hinterher und stellen am Ende fest, dass es gar nicht ihr eigener Traum war. Wieder andere vermeiden von vornherein Enttäuschungen, indem sie gar nicht erst träumen. Und dennoch pocht da etwas im Herzen und will verwirklicht werden … Die Strategien und ersten Schritte dazu erfährst du an diesem Abend: Lebe Deinen Traum! NLP versteht man nur dann, wenn man es anwendet. Deswegen gibt es an diesem Abend auch viele praktische Übungen. Komm zum Abendseminar, erhalte Einblick in die Welt des NLP und lerne die Menschen kennen, die NLP machen. An jedem Abend ist auch die Gelegenheit, sich über die NLP-Ausbildung zu informieren und Ausbildungsteilnehmer kennenzulernen.

There’s the possibility to switch between singing booths during the night and sing duets with other attendees. *Alles kann nichts muss* => Everything is possible, **nothing is a must**. Depending on the group’s needs, we might grab something to eat/drink after the Karaoke at a nearby location. Feel free to invite someone who could enjoy this Karaoke night.

Bi-Weekly Karaoke Meetup

Non-Monogamy Gathering at the Park

UPDATE\* Hey! People are mostly signing in through LUMA https://luma.com/8890sf60 so I will close the RSVP on Meetup to make it easier to manage; feel free to register through Luma! Let's get together at Goethepark on July 12 and connect the non-monogamous Berlin community. ​I'm throwing this idea out there, but I'm not charging anything, nor do I want to be the host or be responsible for everything. If you're joining, consider yourself a co-creator of the space and the experience. Let's make it happen together! ​This will be a special afternoon with a few different activity areas: ​**The Relationship Design Game** We'll play The Relationship Design Game (which I created) and use the cards as conversation starters. Think of it as a relaxed support group where we can share experiences, perspectives, and questions. ​**Consent Area** A space to practice asking for what you want, setting boundaries, and hearing "yes", "no", and "maybe" with curiosity and respect. Just sit on the blanket and wait for someone to join you for simple consent exercises. ​**Blind Portraits** Get to know someone without speaking. Draw each other's portraits without looking at the page. ​**Reading Exchange** Bring a book, ideally short stories, poems, or other short pieces (phone notes or shopping lists work as well!), and read something aloud to someone else. ​**Chill Area** Bring snacks and drinks to share, relax on a blanket, and enjoy the afternoon in the park. ​**Create Your Own Space** Have an idea for an activity? Bring a blanket, set up your own little area, write the instructions on a piece of paper, and let it happen! ​**A few ground rules:** * ​No discrimination of any kind. * ​Consent and respect above all. * ​This is NOT a dating event. Connections can obviously happen naturally, and that's great, but the gathering is designed around building community, relaxing, and supporting each other rather than dating or sex. So if that's the only reason you're coming, you might as well skip it. ​Looking forward to seeing you there! ​The exact location in Goethepark will be shared on the day of the event. When signing up, please tell me a bit about why you'd like to join and include your phone number. I'll create a Telegram group so we can coordinate details, share ideas, and collectively make the event even better.
