Design Summer School & Exhibition

School of Maybe: Feminist Welding Club

FORUM STADTPARK – Island of Loners / Insel der Einsamen

Under the direction of Anna Zimmerman, participants in the Feminist Welding Club will get to know welding as a deeply personal practice, in which each connection and every seam bears its own signature style. The designer founded the club in response to male-dominated workshops in which she was often made to feel isolated and inadequate – after all, we are taught early on that machines are for boys and men only. So what does it take to feel at home in the metal workshop?

The School of Maybe is aimed at designers, artists, and anyone who wants to learn welding but has not yet trusted themselves to try it out. Applications are open to women, trans-, and genderqueer individuals.
