A breeding ground for young, artistic and cultural entrepreneurs

You’re a Brussels artist. Alongside the purely artistic, culture for you also means critically reflecting on world views that determine our actions and thinking about alternatives that can provide counterweight. To fully develop, you’re looking for a sanctuary for creative rebellion.

Does this description sound like you? Then Barak Lili M is the project for you.

Barak Lili M

Barak Lili M (Pilar) offers enthusiastic mavericks a place where they can freely meet. A place where young cultural entrepreneurs can let their wild ideas grow. It’s a physical workspace, but coaching and support to develop your project are also among the options.

Barak Lili M consists of:

  • three workshop spaces;
  • a rehearsal room;
  • a breeding ground for cultural entrepreneurship.

In the three workshops, Barak Lili M welcomes you, a young Brussels artist whose work creates a link between art and science.

Turn your thoughts into deeds!

Time to get creative!

Do you find yourself in a situation without any time or inspiration to be creative? Do you need a moment to turn in and unwind? Would you like to have a short chat with other creative minded people? Then the Creative Atelier of Barak Lili M might be something for you.

“Creative Atelier”, the name actually says it all, is a space designed as an ‘atelier’ with focus on creativity. Here you can paint, write, draw and many other things. It's not about the final result, but about the freedom and relaxation of creating. The Atelier allows you to  escape the deadlines and obligations that come along with your student life.

The sessions take place weekly on Wednesday evenings, for about four hours. You follow a theme each session (this can be a word, a quote or a statement) and everyone can work around it without obligation. 

Want to join?

These sessions are currently taking place online. Interested to participate? Send a message to Lieselotte Weytjens through messenger and she will add you to the group. The sessions are in English.
