Kissing Stone in Treptower Park: Community meeting with music and warm drinks on November 5, 2023 at 2:30 p.m.!

Marco Brauchmann, district councilor for further training, school, culture and sport, has invited to a joint meeting at Kissing Stone in the rose garden in Treptower Park in Berlin. At the meeting, the participants should listen to music, enjoy warm drinks and leave personal wishes for the future at Kissing Stone. The Kissing Stone is a work of art by Ulrich Vogl, in which visitors press their lips with lipstick on the stone and thus express their wishes. The work of art is supposed to be a monument of love, hope and longing and serves as a counterpoint to the Treptower memorial in order to set a sign of peace. The meeting will take place on Sunday, November 5, 2023 at 2:30 p.m. There will be a program with short speeches, musical design and fire and warm drinks. The participants are asked to bring lipstick with them.

Local effects and context: The Kissing Stone in the rose garden in Treptower Park is an artistic intervention that takes place every summer. The artwork serves as a starting point for cultural events and has a symbolic meaning for the residents of Berlin. The spatial proximity of the Kissing Stone to the Treptower Eehmenmal can also arouse political associations, especially against the background of war and conflicts in other parts of the world. The meeting at Kissing Stone offers Berliners the opportunity to express their thoughts and wishes for peace and a better future.
