Saturday night sorted ✨ Look, we could tell you all about the art, the music, the vines, but honestly? Just look at this photo from our first edition. This is the energy we're talking about. @super.nintendo.archundia will have you dancing between the artworks, @emme______m will keep the sonic flow just right, and somewhere in between you'll find yourself having those conversations that make the night stick with you. Saturday August 9th, 5PM onwards. Same energy, new space (we took over a former Späti this time). Last edition was packed. This one's looking the same way. Get your tickets now 👆 link in bio Come for whatever reason, stay because you're having a good time. #FULGOR #SaturdayNight #BerlinEvents #LiveMusic #LatinArt #Alterfocus

From corner store to cultural hub – this is what happens when art finds its perfect unexpected home 💜 We're literally transforming a former Späti near Gesundbrunnen into a one-night gallery, and honestly? It's going to be something special. There's magic in taking art out of traditional spaces and letting it breathe somewhere completely new. Meet our artists: Santo Cielo bringing intricate hand-embroidered portraits from Uruguay, Belen Majdalani capturing life through her lens from Argentina, and Cristina Estanislao creating stunning illustrations from Venezuela. Plus Supernintendo Archundia will get you moving with their high-energy electronic beats, while Emme Moises curates the perfect soundscape as our DJ. Textiles, photography, illustration, and music – all coming together in a space that used to sell late-night snacks and now hosts Latin American creativity. Sometimes the best galleries are the ones that don't look like galleries at all. Saturday, August 9th from 5PM. This is going to sell out.
