Our cultural institutions include the MiK Jugendkunstschule, with locations at Sch\u00f6nwalder Stra\u00dfe 19 (children&#8217;s art workshop, theatre studio) and Auguststra\u00dfe 21 (the Farbklang studio), as well as the municipal galleries Kunst Raum Mitte, Galerie Nord, Galerie Wedding &#8211; Raum f\u00fcr zeitgen\u00f6ssische Kunst, Klosterruine Berlin, B\u00e4renzwinger and the Mitte Museum.

Together with them and many others, the institutions contribute to a lively artistic and cultural landscape in Mitte. Joint highlights include Cultural Education Day, Open Monument Day and the joint activities of the Association of Municipal Galleries Berlin (Verbund der Kommunalen Galerien Berlin).<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n        <div class=\"content-side-padding-negate \">\n        <hr ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":2560,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2561","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
