Atelier 15 Katalog

The project Atelier 15 (A15) arose in 2018
through a conversation between two members
of the Rotarian family - a Rotarian and a Rotaracter
- and shared desire to promote social and
societal development in Berlin.
The aim of the project is to
financially support the socially
integrative and donation-funded
institution Gitschiner 15 (G15) and
its artists. This support will be provided
by a charity art auction on
November 5th 2022 in the Passionskirche
in Berlin, Kreuzberg.
All proceeds will benefit the G15
and its artists.
Through this project, Rotaract
Club Berlin International is advocating
for the G15, its visitors, and
its artists. The foundational world
view of the organization falls
under the philosophy „poverty is
wasted wealth“. On the second
floor of the house, in the atelier,
countless artworks reside, which
seldom receives public appreciation
and visibility. The aim of this
art auction is to show the artists
that they themselves and their
work is seen and has value.
Back in 2018, this auction was
organized by Rotaract Club Berlin
International for the first time. The
evening was a great success: In
total 7,500 Euros were raised for
G15 and its artists. The second
edition was planned for 2020, but
was postponed due to the pandemic.
Finally, the A15 art auction
will enter the second round in
2022. With your help, we look forward
to making this year’s auction
just as successful as the auction
held in 2018. The artists of G15 as
well as the Rotaract Club Berlin
International are looking forward
to meeting you in person at the
event. We hope to recognize some
returning faces amongst you!
