Materialfestival

In the organizer's words:

On April 18, 2026, we invite you to the Allerweltshaus in Ehrenfeld to think together about a different way of dealing with resources: with workshops, exhibitions, material shows and discussions about reuse, repurposing and circular practices in Cologne and beyond.

After all, countless valuable materials are disposed of, remain unused or unnoticed - even though they could be part of new cycles long ago. This is exactly where we come in.

We are presenting our material distributor project - a prototype for a digital platform that makes materials from cultural and event productions accessible and makes it easier to pass them on. At the same time, we will show what already exists, what is possible and what the next steps are.

The focus is on exchange:
What is already happening in Cologne? What is missing? And how can we continue to work on this together?

🗓 18.04.2026 | 2-8 pm
📍 Allerweltshaus, Geisselstraße 3-5, Cologne

Come along, get involved and help create - we look forward to seeing you!

Reuse materials now!
