A festival as a bridge between art and crafts, design, music, technology and relevant topics for young and old. On one day, there is a heap of program for all age groups with lectures, talks and workshops. Artists perform and exhibit their works at the art and creative market and open their studios in the creative workshop. Installations and performances worth seeing will be shown. During the day, people dance to street music outdoors and at night at the clubbing event in KASINO. Various vegetarian delicacies will be available throughout the day, as well as ice cream, coffee and cake. Admission is free with a solidarity contribution to support the festival.
