Three members of the Kunstverein Steinfurt are exhibiting together. Their paintings harmonise well together, but each of the three artists has her own form of expression, technique and attitude to art. While Erika Leusbrock brings many inspirations from her travels and translates them imaginatively into acrylic or watercolour, Annemarie Deiters often devotes herself to figurative motifs and colourfully stages female silhouettes. Both artists run the "Zwischengalerie" in Steinfurt Borghorst.

Angelika Schmidt has been running a gallery in Wettringen since 2024, where she also gives workshops and courses in various techniques, using spray paints, stencils, hammered metal, oil sticks, pastel chalks and much more.

Around 400 years ago she went from house to house, the midwife, and knew the people of her town, their worries and hardships like no other. Today, Vera Menzel, dressed in historical costume, tells you about the life of a midwife in Steinfurt around 1600. Anna Krechting takes you on a journey through time with true stories and anecdotes, with tales of witch hunts and beating students, giving you a vivid picture of her time. On your way from the castle through the town to the Ackerbürgerhaus, you can also taste from Anna Krechting's basket!

The AI regulars' table organised by Kreis-Wirtschaftsförderung is a free event for company managers who want to find out about artificial intelligence in a practical way and talk to other companies.

Erich Kästner not only wrote children's books, but was also a critical observer in difficult times. This thoughtful, sarcastic and humorous poet will be the focus of the evening. His texts leave us smiling, sometimes amused, sometimes astonished, sometimes shocked. The texts are topical, even half a century after Kästner's death. He was one of the first authors whose books were burnt by the National Socialists.

The musicians of the jazz trio accompany the reading, improvising with jazz standards and their own compositions. Lothar Wantia on percussion and drums, Joffrey Bondzio on double bass and Niclas Floer on piano

"Travelling is the joy of life" is how Angelika Glaub describes how she draws inspiration for her art. As a painter who likes to experiment, she works, depending on the subject, in the auqarelle wash technique, in acrylic on canvas, collages or monotypes based on gelatin printing. Nicolaus Bornhorn will be exhibiting his photographic impressions of Lisbon and Portugal. Both run a gallery in Wilhelmshaven
