Three-day Kulturgeflüster Writing Workshop

2023/24 Workshop

Are you interested in writing and wondering how to actually write a review? Are you new to the subject or already have some previous experience? Would you like to write creatively about a performance from the audience’s perspective or are you passionate about culture and journalism?

We want to create a trusting space for young people to try things out and exchange ideas, where they can work on the practical basics of (journalistic) writing. 

Apply now for our “Kulturgeflüster” writing workshop for anyone aged between 18 and 25!

What we offer you:

  • A 3-day writing workshop with cultural journalist Rico Stehfest 
  • Opportunity for exchange & networking
  • Performance visit of a dance piece 
  • Artist talk 
  • Insights behind the scenes of our cultural business

What we need from you :

  • A short letter of motivation in which you answer the following questions: Why would you like to take part in the workshop? What do you expect from this workshop? What would you like to take away from it? Do you already have previous writing experience? 

If you already have samples of your work, please send them to us at the same time! 
(The content of this workshop can and should be tailored to the wishes, expectations and existing knowledge of its participants).

Send applications to: Kulturgefluester@gmail.com 

This workshop should: 

… support the development of the basics for writing a text/critique
… provide a space for trying things out together 
… open up an individual approach to writing

Perhaps you will still be interested in working as an editor afterwards. Our free social year volunteer Henrike is looking forward to new members for the young editorial team “Kulturgeflüster Dresden”. You can use this workshop as a taster.

We look forward to receiving your applications!
