Our event will take place on the 26th of June 2021 between 2 – 5pm at Washington Platz by Berlin Central Station (Hauptbahnhof). We are very hopeful that despite the pandemic, circumstances will allow for the event to happen in public but keep in mind that this might be subject to change. We will communicate any changes to the event should this be necessary. We are looking forward to receiving your submissions and if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!
