Since 1. August 2024 we rented 123m² on the Altmarkt. The premises include three different sizes, A kitchen and a foyer. Enough freedom of design for all of us!
We rented these rooms, Because we are convinced, that a city should be more than just the sum of its residents. Rather, it is only alive through the encounters between the residents, the new ones are created. By coming together, exchange ideas and put ideas together, come out of the isolation of urban life. Social, political and cultural projects, enable such exchange, need space: And that has been missing in Kassel for a long time! There are individual rooms, which are operated by a few initiatives. But these are often too small, difficult to access or without long -term prospect of staying.
We want to create a center with our rooms, in which one wide variety of politics, Culture and social space can find. With this we want to create opportunities for coming together from different people, Initiatives and uses. We want a place for exhibitions, Lesungen, Theater evenings and other cultural events, With the neighborhood cafes at the same time, Finding political projects and self -organized sports groups.
The center should be designed, From those, who use it. In addition, the center must not be geared towards the generation of profits, but must pursue non -profit goals. The participation of people is important to us regardless of their economic background. We therefore have the claim, not to profit with the center, but to work as cost -covering as possible.
Group of the Liza
To such a collective, to create open space, we have ourselves in summer 2020 together. We are currently busy, to renovate the rooms, to develop a self -image, to work out a financial concept and with many other tasks. We are structured in working groups and a firm meeting for all collective members.
We are looking for other people, Initiatives and groups, that join us. So if you are interested in participating in us or supporting us elsewhere, Feel free to write us!
