Holding up the Sky: BEWEGUNGSBAUSTELLE

The BEWEGUNGSBAUSTELLE is a mobile play and movement facility. Using simple materials such as boards, crates, ropes or pipes, children create and use creative adventure landscapes themselves. It's not about right or wrong - but about courageous experimentation, creative rethinking and shared experiences. The project promotes motor skills, self-confidence and social behavior, offers space for free decisions and creative processes, is inclusive, low-threshold and open to all children. It creates a generous connection between play, education and community.

Together, we create an appreciative space for free play, bold ideas and development in motion. In cooperation with www.bewegungsbaustelle.berlin , we are opening up educational spaces - initiated by​​​​​​​ Psychomotorikverein Berlin & Brandenburg e.V., made possible and implemented by Spore team member​​​​​​​ João Albertini at Spore Initiative.

About the project​​​​​​​

Holding up the sky: An exhibition space for an open, solidary conviviality

For Holding up the sky, the studio at Spore Initiative becomes a platform for intergenerational solidarity and cultural creation - the anchor for an extensive program unfolding around it. Concepts such as childhood, adultism and family beyond normative ideas will be explored from different perspectives. Above all, the voices of children and young people who shape the activities will be heard.

The image of holding up the sky comes from the understanding, especially of indigenous communities, that the sky will fall to earth at the end of time: Song, dance and magical experiences - in other words joy and lightness - have the power to hold it up, to make it float. 
Let yourself be guided by creativity, openness and curiosity, and the network of relationships around you, help shape it and have fun doing so.
