An event in aid of Seawatch e.V.
By Staff
SoliType is a fundraising project for people seeking refuge in the EU. Created in 2020 by three artists who felt the urgency to do something that could utilize their skills and help make a difference, the Berlin-based group now regularly supports NGO’s that protect human rights.
"We found ourselves utterly shocked and helpless after the big fire in Camp Moria in autumn 2021 which followed the summer after Covid. In the midst of these social and political awakenings we really felt the limitations of our professional tools."
While the first SoliType projects were quite improvised – now, in autumn 2024, there have been 16 fundraisers in total, with the fourth anniversary taking place on Thursday 14 November at Refuge Worldwide's Niemetzstraße space.
Coming into the physical realm for the first time after fully functioning digitally for 4 years, the team have curated a beautiful collection of art and design pieces by makers from all around the world which will go on auction to raise funds for Seawatch e.V. With over a dozen artists and DJs will contribute to the event, we invite you to join and pick-up a one of a kind art piece for this cause.
Natural wine and soft drinks will be available upon donation.
When: Thursday 14 November, 17:00-21:00
Where: Refuge Worldwide's space @ Niemetzstraße 1, 12055
