🧵12:00 - 13:30h DIY Sew-on Patches
Give your old clothes a new life with patches made out of old jeans and t-shirts! This does not require advanced sewing skills – you can quickly bring your patch designs to life using paper stencils, acrylic paint and some fabric medium. The technique can be used to make anything from pronoun patches to band logos or cat pawprints. Additionally, learn some tips and tricks for working with stretchy fabric.

🎶17:30 - 18:30h Voice Training "All voices: the First Step towards an LGBT+ Choir"
Music has the power to unite us. This voice training workshop hosted by vocalist and art producer Vaidas Bartušas and Lukas Butkus is a space to meet up, experiment with your voice and experience how music can be used for community building. Together we will explore the capabilities of the voice, improvise and discover how united voices affect us and our surroundings.
This workshop is an intro into an LGBTQIA+ Choir, which will be open to join this autumn. We invite everyone interested in being a part of the creative process – regardless of experience or musical talent. Come to this safe environment of discovery where your voice is a part of your identity, freedom and expression. Come, discover and join a new music community!
