Tarot Readings
Tarot for guidance, clarity, and self-discovery.
Like cinema, Tarot invites us to explore hidden stories, shift perspectives, and uncover deeper meanings. Stop by for a personalized reading and see what the cards reveal.
Read by Felicitas Sidders, Tarot reader and artist.

Psychodrama Workshop
Ever wondered what role you’d play in a movie, or how your life might look through another character’s eyes?
Join us for a creative 90-minute workshop “Rewriting Your Story: Exploring Roles with Psychodrama”. Using psychodrama techniques, we’ll explore the roles you play in your life, just like your favorite characters on screen. No previous psychodrama experience is needed.
