(This text was written by individuals who have recently frequented the G19 and explains what’s been going on over the past months and how people can join.)
Many things have happened in cute little house at Gartenstraße 19 over the last year. After the first wave of the pandemic had relaxed a little, more and more people brought new ideas into the G19 with a lot of motivation and energy.
During the summer, political groups, motivated individuals and many interested humans frequently met in and around the G19. Always keeping an eye on the current corona situation, pub nights infront of the house, days of renovating, Küfa and more took place.
Over the months the house kept getting prettier and cozier. Sofas and even a piano became a lounge and a small workshop and a bar emerged. The book cupboard was repainted and banners in solidarity with the Liebig34 or the Danni regularly decorate the house.
Numerous people were able to connect in the house despite the restrictions due to corona. The G19 has won the heart of many new people.
But even though so much has happened here, there is still a lot of space for more. Everyone is welcome to get involved, there is space for all ideas and potentials. So if you’re interested, don’t hesitate!
In the summer there was a G19-plenary for anyone interested where everything concerning the house was to be discussed. Sadly, due to corona, this isn’t possible at the moment. Nevertheless, we’ve found a (slightly restricted) way of continuing work in the space until more is possible again.
Several working groups concentrate on various aspects of the G19. A building team is dealing with electricity and an awareness team is working on a concept to create a safe and welcoming space for everyone. Many more ideas and working groups are planned and everyone’s invited to join!
After the G19-plenary wasn’t possible anymore, people were in the house every friday between 3 and 5PM to speak with interested people who weren’t quite sure where to start in a corona-safe manner. Unfortunately, this won’t be possible over christmas due to the intensifying corona situation. As soon as possible this will happen again and will be announced on the G19-blog and on the notice board infront of the house.
Until then everyone is invited to have a look around our blog: g19freiburg.blackblogs.org

We’re looking forward to all the amazing humans, projects, ideas and perspectives! <3
