AN EXPERIENCE-BASED SPACE TO EXPLORE HOW CULTURE SHAPES THE WAY WE COMMUNICATE, WORK, CONNECT, AND BELONG.

Hosted at the beautiful Deutsch-Amerikanisches Institut Heidelberg library, it’s as a recurring program where cultural differences become something we explore together, creatively and with depth. Through hands-on activities, facilitated dialogue, and creative practice, it brings together German, American, and international perspectives.

In collaboration with DAI Heidelberg - Deutsch-Amerikanisches Institut.

Designed and facilitated by Rahaf Abuobeid

A large, historic mansion-style building with multiple stories, arched windows, and a small balcony near the entrance, surrounded by trees.
