(Tea Time Edition) by PÀÀsky Miettinen Pouring hard or hardly pouring is a lecture performance made originally site-specifically at Kruununhaka shore. Now we'll experience a taster of it in the form of a tea party at sweetspot's kitchen. The piece can also be thought of as an album of 12 songs about city planning, fascism, bridges and islands, jugs and horses, pastures and post-apocalyptic times, hands and excavators. At sweetspot you'll get to experience a couple of songs/stories, look at the places of the performance through the window and sip tea.  Place: Sweetspot’s kitchen (audience sitting around the table) Capacity: max 6 experiencer at a time Time: 3-4 times in between 4-6pm.

23.5. SATURDAY 10-11PM Loverbeibin lesbinen lipsync plays with stereotypes of lesbian imagery and experience. As a queer practice rooting in nightclubs, Drag- and Ballroom cultures, lipsync represents minoritiesÂŽ fantasies and desires to be included, by commenting, bending, changing and celebrating stereotypes and the weird position they hold in society. In her set, loverbeibi interprets lyrics and atmospheres of chosen queer songs through her multiple side characters – yet to be revealed.  Duration: 60min Languages: Finnish and English Place: Sweetspot The performance can be followed by sitting, standing or lying down and you can arrive and leave during, if needed. The gig-like set contains multiple short breaks. There will be earplugs available. The space is not huge, so letÂŽs make space for each other, so everyone gets to enjoy the show <3 The show is flirtatious and contains sexual tones. Welcome <3: Tuulia FI: loverbeibin lesbinen lipsync leikittelee lesbokuvastoon ja kokemuksiin liittyvillĂ€ stereotypioilla. Yökerhoista, Drag- ja Ballroom kulttuureista juurensa juontava lipsync edustaa vĂ€hemmistöjen fantasioita ja haluja tulla nĂ€hdyksi; kommentoiden, venyttĂ€en, muuntaen ja juhlien sstereotyyppejĂ€ ja niiden kummallista asemaa yhteiskunnassa. Keikkakokonaisuudessaan loverbeibi tulkitsee valitsemiensa queer biisien lyriikoita ja tunnelmia sivuhahmojensa kautta – sellaisten, jotka odottavat paljastumistaan. Kesto: 60min Kieli: suomi ja englanti Paikka: Sweetspot EsitystĂ€ on mahdollista katsoa istuen, seison tai makoillen ja sen aikana saa saapua tai poistua tarvittaessa. Keikkasetti sisĂ€ltÀÀ useita lyhyitĂ€ taukoja. Korvatulppia on tarjolla. Tila ei ole valtavan suuri, joten koitetaan tehdĂ€ tilaa toisillemme, jotta kaikki voi nauttia esityksestĂ€ <3 Esitys on flirttaileva ja sisĂ€ltÀÀ seksuaalisia sĂ€vyjĂ€. Tervetuloa <3: Tuulia

Where is home in the unknown? A three-day creative exploration between 31 March – 2 April 2026 (17:00–20:00) at Sweetspot, Haapaniemenkatu 7–9B, Helsinki What makes us feel at home? How do we respond to longing in unfamiliar places? How can we care for and support one another? In a world shaped by displacement, climate crisis, conflict, and rapid change, the idea of home is shifting. It may no longer be only a fixed place, but something more fluid or even mobile, carried through memories, bodies, and relationships. We invite you to “Where is home in the unknown?”, a three-day creative exploration where we will reflect on the idea of home through shared discussions, movement, images, mapping, writing, and drawing. Rather than defining home, we want to create a space where different experiences of belonging can be shared. Facilitated by Gesa Piper, Venla Kotilainen, and Nicolina Stylianou. Co-organised by Noise Traffic, Catalysti ry, Free Movement, and TIAN. Participation is free and no prior experience is needed. Tea, coffee, and snacks will be available, and during the final session we will share a meal together. The workshops will be held mainly in English, with possible translation in Finnish, Greek, and German. No prior experience is needed to participate. We encourage participants to join all three days to build a shared and supportive space, though you are welcome even if you cannot attend every session. More info and registration: link in bio or via direct message in our social media.
