COFFEE TALK with Eva Burghardt | November 20, 25

 Eva Burghardt on movement, collaboration and rural creativity

Eva Burghardt is a dancer, choreographer, dance educator, and founder of TANZWERK Werder (established in 2023) — a studio for dance, movement, and therapy, and a hub for community dance projects in the rural region of Brandenburg, near Potsdam.

In this Coffee Talk, Eva shares insights from her work as both a creator of participatory and community-based projects — including the intergenerational project VER_ORTEN/2024, developed with her colleagues from the Sudden Starlings Collective — and as the founder of an interdisciplinary art space in the countryside. She reflects on ideals and pragmatics, successes and setbacks, challenges and motivations — and explore why it still makes sense to keep going.
