The OT301 has been squatted (1999) and bought (2006) by a diverse, international community that is united in an association called EHBK. We run this alternative, not-for-profit platform as a collective, in which housing, workspaces and public functions are combined to contribute to the arts, politics and subculture.

Sewing for Collectives is a two-session workshop in which participants will collectively produce a large-scale textile fanzine. Using sewing, stencils, patches, buttons, and blings, we will transform fabric into a shared document inspired by the Care Pact/Work Ethic of the collective Biquini Wax EPS.

The Care Pact is a tool that Biquini Wax has built over its 15 years of existence. It is a living document about mutual care, awareness of privileges, fair distribution of work, and other agreements that have helped sustain collective well-being. The goal is to materialise and socialise this tool, and share it with the public. No previous sewing experience is required, just bring your hands and your willingness to work collectively.
