Feet cold, ears cold, hands cold, everything cold? There's a very simple solution: Starting in November, we'll be meeting again at the Näh.Werk to knit together. On the wool cloud we can support each other in ambitious projects and give the absolute beginners the necessary help to get started. Knitting instead of fucking is the motto!For those of us who are in a hurry: there is also a knitting machine.Every first and second Thursday from 17 - 21 o'clock we can knit in circles over the winter. Wool and needles are in stock!

From 21 - 23.09 and 28 - 30.09.2020 we organized the very first kick-off days in the New People's House Cotta. A colorful program brought young and old together on site. There was crafting, knitting, building laptop holders together and listening to stories from the neighborhood. The crowning finale, which was spent together at the wine bar, was musically accompanied by the Bloomers Dance Band - some even dared to shake a leg.The 6 days showed us - the Volkshaus team - that the idea of reopening the New Volkshaus Cotta as a cultural and neighborhood center has a lot of appeal in Cotta. We received a lot of positive feedback and encouragement to implement this great project. And that is exactly what we will do in the coming months and years - together with you!

Am 08.07. gab es wieder einen kleinen Höhepunkt im Vereinsleben – DerMDR, genauer gesagt Silvio Zschage mit seinem Musik-Mix-Mobil, besuchteuns und schenkte uns eine gute Stunde Unterhaltung, Musik undÜberraschungen. Es war extrem kurzfristig, da wir einen genauen Terminbei einer Auslosung dieser Art nicht vorherbestimmen konnten. Dass wirüberhaupt gelost wurden grenzt schon an ein Wunder. Silvio sagte, dasses über 3000 Bewerbungen dazu gibt.Leider konnten wegen des kurfristigen Termins viele unserer Aktivennicht teilnehmen. Natürlich zeigten wir auch unsere in neuem Glanzerstrahlten Räume und Werkstätten im Haus. Selbst aus Chemnitz kam einälteres Ehepaar, um an diesem Event mit dabei zu sein. Unser Haus bekameine von Silvio signierte MDR-Tasse. Diese bitte in Ehren halten!Vielen Dank an alle Helfer, die für einen reibungslosen Ablauf gesorgthaben.Allen Beteiligten hat es gut gefallen. Werbung für unser Neues Volkshaushaben wir damit jedenfalls gemacht. Dank geht an den MDR!Rainer

Actions & Events at the SquareFor the action weekend on November 9/10/11, 2018, Schillingplatz became an open living room. Under the motto "Everybody needs a home", lectures, film and various actions as well as art and music created a temporary contact point where people from the district could come together and exchange ideas.Despite low temperatures, the action weekend was well attended at times. The action weekend was filled with contributions to urban space design, a mobile screen-printing workshop, a lantern procession for St. Martin's Day, live music, cinnamon punch and discussions. At the end there was the possibility to get into conversation at the neighborhood cafe and tea.Besides we asked ourselves the question: What makes a home? How can we shape the city together? How do we want to live together? How and where do we live, work and share ? What should our district look like today and in the future? In this way, an awareness of mutual togetherness could be awakened and the urban space could be temporarily shaped.The Catholic and Protestant youth of Dresden-Löbtau, Konglomerat e.V., #Willkommen in der Werkstatt, the neighborhood meeting place PlatzDa, the street newspaper Drobs, the Dresdner Tafel, neighbors, friends and other locals participated...A large part of the donations was given to the Dresdner Nachtcafes.

With the project "BLUE DOG" an ironic fakelabel is set up, which takes the mechanisms of the fashion industry and its marketing strategies ad absurdum. In workshops, new underwear is made from old pieces of clothing. The project participants will learn manufacturing and production techniques and will be able to apply the label to their self-sewn garment at the end. Consumers become producers who can set an example with their own personal "blueDog" collection.Sponsored by the Creative Network.

In this two-day course we will process an original T-shirt pattern from the "Sibyl" into your new favorite. This will then be finished in our workshop with various printing techniques or applications.Date Oct. 20-21, 2018 1-5 p.m. each dayRegistration at: textiles@listen.konglomerat.org
