Until late into the night, the most beautiful songs about love will tempt you to dance, sing along or make out – brought along in the record case of the Berlin DJ collective ‘Sonic Sisters Society’. To go with it, we will serve you a selection of love poems, specially recorded for this Long Night by actors Sigrid Grajek and Eugen Knecht. Or use our ‘Poem-o-mat’ to have an AI create a love poem according to your own specifications!
In addition, our permanent exhibition BerlinZEIT and the new special exhibition ‘Berliner Höfe’ (Berlin Backyards) are open to you. At a book table, we also offer discarded exhibition catalogues and Berlin literature from our library. And that’s not all that awaits you on this long summer night!
