Dear Fellows of Weltoffenes Berlin,
You have been awarded a fellowship this year, which will provide you with the financial means to develop your artistic career and gain a foothold in Berlin at the same time. touring artists has been supporting the fellows of Weltoffenes Berlin since 2018. We help with drafting the fellowship-contracts, advise on the first administrative steps (e.g. regarding the KSK and invoicing issues) and offer insights into the structure of Berlin's art and culture scene. In addition to the information on our website and our free advisory service, we offer accompanying workshops and network meetings for the fellows of Weltoffenes Berlin under the title GET TOGETHER. The workshops will take place on the following four dates:
The next GET TOGETHER will take place on on September 25, again at 4pm, at our ITI Media Library in Bethanien (Mariannenplatz 2, 10997 Berlin).
At the next GET TOGETHER we will focus on important administrative steps that should be considered after the move to Berlin. What about taxes and invoicing? What is the KSK? What kind of work am I allowed to do? Can I travel to other EU countries and work as an artist there? What administrative issues should I consider when applying for funding?
We are also planning another block to discuss the current status of your artistic projects.
At 7pm we will move on to the Kunstraum Kreuzberg where we will have a guided tour at the ‘Techno-Ecologies and Bodies of Memory’ exhibition together with its curator Marianna Liosi.
