Vom Busch in die Faust

In the organizer's words:

Two houses, one walk, many insights

At first glance, the Faust Cultural Center and the Wilhelm Busch Museum seem to be doing very different things. But just a few hundred meters apart, to the left and right of the Leine, the two neighbouring cultural institutions have more in common than you might think.

This double tour begins with an insight into the Busch exhibition "BÖSE?! Resistance and Crime - 160 Years of Max and Moritz", the history of the museum and its current work. Caricatures, artistic freedom and a critical view of society play key roles here. The second part on the grounds of the Faust Cultural Center is about culture, diversity and living together, but also about the courage to persevere. Doors will open to special areas of the large building complex and the history of the former bedspring factory will also be discussed.

How have the two cultural venues developed in terms of construction and content? How are the two buildings doing and how well are they being defended? What unites the two cultural institutions and where are the exciting differences?

There is time for questions and good discussions not only on the tours themselves, but also on the walk from one location to the other, through the Georgengarten and across the connecting Sleeping Beauty Bridge. The tour ends at the Café Warenannahme in the Faust. Here you can continue chatting over a drink or two.

Date: Sunday, 12.10., 16.11., 14.12. and 11.01., each from 2 to 4 p.m.
