kindly supported by: MA59 – Marktservice & Lebensmittelsicherheit
in cooperation with: Bezirksvorstehung Floridsdorf, GB* Stadtteilbüro für die Bezirke 21 und 22, wohnpartner


Five tool talks (Werkzeuggespräche) on the upheavals of living and working environments in urban areas in cooperation with SOHO in Ottakring.

Work is a central concept of humanity, which has changed fundamentally in the course of history. There ins hardly any other term, where have been so many controversial theories, discussions, models. At present, our working world is undergoing rapid progress: a clear separation between work and leisure is becoming more and more blurred, “stable” employment biographies are becoming more brittle and industrial work is increasingly disappearing from urban everyday life.

POTLUCK

Within each tool call, we invite all to supplement our little culinary offer within the meaning of Potluck with delicacies. A potluck has a lot to do with sharing and mutual appreciation. Potlach is regarded as one of the ideas for this Potluck. An event of North American Indians of the Pacific coast. In this ritual gifts are distributed and distributed. We are looking forward to the culinary surprises brought along. A covered table is waiting to be filled.
