We'll soon be celebrating the end of the academic year and for this day to be a memorable experience, we need you to be a part of it!

Our largest event of the year takes place on Friday 22 May ☀️

We want to showcase works from all programmes. If you've got something creative to share, whether it's a movie, visual art piece, acting performance, installation, live visuals or any other form of expression, we want to hear from you. We are also seeking musical artists such as singer/songwriters, live electronics, DJs and more, for transporting listening experiences and of course, for dancing.

Along with showcases and a party, we’ll be recognising your growth as artists and individuals with a special awards ceremony (The Catties), so we’re looking for entertainment for that as well!

We’re marking Piano Day this year with an all day celebration at Funkhaus, and you’re invited to join us either in person or via live stream.

Falling one key short, but no less harmonious, on the 87th day of the year we come together to celebrate international Piano Day. Here in Berlin, where the day was founded by Nils Frahm, we mark the occasion together.

From 12pm until 8pm, a broad scope of local and international artists will present piano centred performances unfolding live from Catalyst’s studios. These will be streamed throughout the day via Etikett Radio and Catalyst’s YouTube.

If you’re on campus, you’re warmly invited to grab a drink from our pop up bar & gather in Co Lab 6 where the performances will be shared, with moments to step a little closer to the source across the day.

Our aim is simple: to detach from the chaos and connect with each other in a slower fashion.

• Onsite: K4 & Co Lab 6 (plus upstairs kitchen bar!)
• Online: Etikett Radio + YouTube
• Time: 12:00–20:00 onsite, 13:00–18:30 stream

During Spring Break, the facilities will be open weekdays only, from 10:00 to 18:00. Please also note that we will be closed on Friday 3 April and Monday 6 April, in observance of the Easter public holidays.

🌱 Spring Break: March 30 - April 10

Enjoy your break!
