Chalet
After such a busy week such as the last one I actually feel like not doing anything for the next 7 days. But of course leaving you without my weekly list of event recommendations would not be fair. As I have so many photo sets still to prepare for the next days I will have to keep myself short this week.
On Tuesday bloggette and DJane Oh-Sophia is hosting a special (free) dinner at Merkezi. Salon der Alchemisten is a new party with live music taking place this Wednesday at Chalet, the new club inside former Heinz Minki that is now owned by the former Bar25 owners. On Thursday the HBC opens the big group exhibition Do It Again. Also, Stevie Hanley is having a book launch with an exhibition and live concert by Alexander Geist. On Friday the LEAP is opening their 4th edition of performance night Body Controlled. If you didn’t dare to take your crazy outfit out for fashion week, then maybe do it at the Blitz party. On Saturday London-based queer party Gutterslut is coming back to Berlin to haunt the Sisyphos with their big trannies.
This week is also the best time to visit the design schools here in Berlin, as they are all having an open house where they present the work of their students. UdK is open from Thursday to Sunday. The HTW is having their Werkschau from Friday to Saturday. And the Weißensee School is celebrating the opening of their exhibition of students work on Friday evening. The exhibition will continue until July 29th. Read on…

On Sunday our annual Easter Special took place in collaboration with Merkezi at Kottbusser Tor in Kreuzberg. We had a very exciting Easter Egg hunt in the afternoon. So many of you came by to seek for our eggs. We had so much fun hiding them and obviously you had even more fun seeking them! And it made us very happy to see how excited you were about your Easter presents by fab.de that included a pair of cool head phones, a luxurious wallet, a nice glas bowl, several tote bags and vouchers, as well as some bottles of Absolut and the exhibition catalogue of the ARTandPRESS exhibition currently open at Martin-Gropius-Bau. Thank you guys for coming and thank you to our sponsors for the great gifts! At night we had a fabulous time dancing to music by SNAX and super fun DJ sets by engtanzkavalier, and Sophia Brown. Looking forward to celebrate with you again at our next event! Some impressions and animations of our Easter Special at Merkezi after the jump on 2 pages.
