The idea of an open workshop reached other creative people, so that the INNWERK team quickly grew.
Das Innwerk Team
“Open it first”
I had already learnt that many appliances are less broken than they often seem when I was working in Passaus' Repair Café. I found out about the Innwerk via Jodel and quickly decided to stay.
The workshop gives me the opportunity to challenge myself with my craftsmanship and you also get to meet lots of new people.
You'll find me mainly in the IT and bicycle sectors. But certainly also here and there, wherever you can learn something.
Mathilda aka Tilli is our treasurer and takes care of the bookkeeping. When she's not managing the treasury, she simply lends a hand wherever help is needed. Whether it's sewing projects, website content or fine-tuning the initiatives' statutes. Her strength lies in bringing a different perspective to the discourse.
Helps you with:
everything about finance, donation receipts,legal questions about the association and sewing projects
Pepe aka Peppi is our specialist for bicycles and everything that makes noise. He can also be enthusiastic about somewhat lengthy fiddlework. With a good dose of optimism, he is the perfect partner for all crazy and seemingly impossible projects.
Helps you with: everything to do with bicycles, electronics, wood and sewing
With Julia you can be sure that the tasks you have taken on will be implemented perfectly. She is great at familiarizing herself with new projects. If she didn't have a plan beforehand, she is well informed after a short time. In addition, she is exceptionally good at formulating texts and knows how to deal with words. Her relaxed appearence is very enviable and often creates a haven of calm in our midst.
Helps you with:
workshop and cooperation requests, press work, the Innwerk website, art projects
Hannes is our technical all-rounder. According to his own statement, he woke up one morning in a WhatsApp group called "Mietwerkstatt Passau". He liked the idea of an open workshop so much that he quickly got involved from different sides. Hannes tried to find possible funding programs and set up a website in no time at all. As the internal spokesman, he is the contact person for all members of the association. If you dial the Innwerk hotline, his rotary phone will ring
Helps you with:
the Innwerk cloud, programming projects and electronic tinkering
Krissi is our master of the sewing machine. Sewing seat cushions, shortening trousers or designing a patchwork jacket - no problem, she'll show you how it's done.
She is always happy to hear new creative ideas and will be happy to help you realise your project.
As one of our longest-standing club members, Krissi can also give you an insight into the work areas of the Innwerk beyond the textile workshop. So if you often think to yourself: ‘I don't even know män!’ when it comes to fabric and co. - chat to Krissi and benefit from her patience and expertise.
Basti manages to develop grandiose solution ideas for a wide variety of projects in no time - preferably when it comes to subculture and crafts. He infects everyone around him with his passion and zest for action. Not to forget his open-minded personality, with which he gets to know people quickly and easily and inspires them for new craziness
Helps you with:
workshops, construction projects and procurement of materials
I am involved in Innwerk because I have discovered crafting for myself and think it's great to be able to try out and learn everything there. I am particularly passionate about creating a space that is free from sexism and other forms of discrimination. Sexism is a recurring theme in workshops and FINTA (women, inter, non-binary, trans, agender) people in particular often don't feel comfortable there. That's why I'm at Innwerk, to do my bit to make sure that everyone feels comfortable in this place.
My favourite things to do are working with wood and technical equipment. I'm not an expert in any area, but I'm constantly learning new things. I can currently help with basic woodworking skills, soldering and sewing.
In addition to working, the awareness work at Innwerk is particularly important to me.
Workshop is Love, Workshop is Life
In search of a sense of home and like-minded people, I ended up at the Innwerk one summer and stayed.
You can find me in the wood and metal area at the back right (and anywhere else where you can swear). If you would like to tackle a wood or metal project yourself, feel free to reach out to me.
