Homberg (Efze)
Saturday, 14/11, and Sunday, 15/11, each from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Applied art made from valuable materials at especially affordable flea market prices: "ART flea MARKET" Following a successful launch, the two HKR project groups are once again offering "special Christmas gifts at flea market prices" this autumn. Presented is an impressive selection of unique gifts—for yourself and loved ones—in a special atmosphere and great variety: One-of-a-kind pieces—just as unique as the people receiving them—and artistic handcrafted works made from classic sculptural materials of high quality. These "small works of art" include sculptures in clay, bronze and brass as well as figures and objects made from Carrara marble. These works by the project group members are complemented by paintings and graphics, books, art cards and photographs. Be surprised by the diverse works of the artists from Homberg and the region. Free parking is available at the "Kindertagesstätte Osterbach" and in "August-Vilmar-Straße", in the area of "JYSK-Bettenlager". The organizers at "Kunst + Kultur GLASHAUS" are the Project groups *Visual Arts* and *DAsein* of the Homberger Kulturring e.V.
To preserve the memory of deceased people, maintain a connection to them, and find comfort in grief, memorial days and rituals can be helpful. With coffee and traditional streusel cake, as well as sandwiches, we meet for the memorial meal in the GLASHAUS. Through conversation, laughter, and tears, we remember our dead and reflect on our own mortality. Personal texts may be read aloud if a farewell was not possible or if there was still so much left to say, in order to express feelings, love and gratitude, as well as anger, pain and helplessness. A song recording may be brought along and played. Photos or recordings from the new digital media may also be brought to look at together. Very personal memorial wishes can also be incorporated into the afternoon. We need memories so that the voice, the face, the laughter, or whatever made the person special and unique is not lost. So that they may remain here, in the midst of life. Led by and with an impulse from Christine Foerster, Homberg Free of charge – registration requested.
