Cheers to Change

In the organizer's words:

We all have an image of the Stone Age in our heads: the man goes hunting, the woman gathers berries and looks after the fire and the family. But are these ideas really historically proven - or are we projecting our current role models into the past?

On International Women's Day, we are breaking with the clichés! In a relaxed atmosphere and with a glass of wine, you can expect inspiring conversations and discussions with exciting personalities who are confronted daily with role attributions that they do not conform to.

• Talk to midwife Josephine Bomke about contraception, pregnancy and birth.
• Discuss nature conservation and prejudices against hunting with hunter Martina Rohn.
• Discover completely new perspectives with gender archaeologist Marieluise Hahn, who is committed to non-hierarchical and accessible science.
• Experience the flintknapper Elena Moos, who makes tools from flintstones, in action and break with clichés that women encounter in the trade .
• Take a look behind the scenes of the Stereotypical Neanderthal Woman exhibition on exclusive guided tours with curator Ecem Uludag

In addition to exciting insights, you can also get creative yourself: Together we will design a still-secret work of art that makes the examination of stereotypes artistically visible.

Be inspired, question clichés and rediscover the Stone Age - we look forward to seeing you!
