With the organization of the SISTER*QUEENS & Friends Festival, as well as the start of new collaborations with youth institutions and hip-hop artists, the network is deepening and weaving itself around an empowering hip-hop practice for and with MINTA* and FLINTA*.

In preparation for the festival, workshops on rap, hip-hop dance and graffiti took place in girls' centres and accommodation for refugees during the summer holidays. In this way, the participants were able to get in the mood for the festival, get to know the basics and learn more about the history of hip-hop. In addition, girls* were involved in the organization of the festival and experienced what it means to create something of their own.

On 24.08.2023, the Festsaal Kreuzberg became a cross-generational field of action for MINTA* and FLINTA* and a place to come together and experience one's own and collective power through hip-hop.

During the day girls and young women were able to try their hand at rap, dance, beatboxing and graffiti and in the evening young rappers and dancers shared a stage with experienced MCs. Included were SISTERQUEENS feat. Haszcara and Leila Ey, Ely and Lil Che (Xenion Rap Project), the B2BCREW (ALICE DEE + Leila Ey + Yaso G), Mc Josh and Ebow, as well as dance performances by Haber Project and Chika J.

Last but not least, in 2023 the song "Was mich bewegt" by Faseeha, Frida and Rachel from SISTERQUEENS was created in collaboration with Haszcara.

Thanks to the support of the students in social work at the Alice Salomon University of Applied Sciences and to Montancans for sponsoring the cans.

Do you have an idea for an art education project and would like to learn how to develop a concept and apply for funding? We offer a two-day training course at the Brücke-Museum on how to apply for funding, financial planning and legal forms. Participants have time to develop an educational concept. A selected concept will later be realized in the Brücke-Museum.

The workshop is primarily aimed at artists or artists with a history of migration. If there is still capacity, freelancers without a history of migration can also take part.

Date: April 11 and May 16, 1-6 p.m. (two-day training course)
