Workshop with artist Sixte Kakinda

25. June 2025 • Sixte Kakinda

Almost every Wednesday afternoon since the beginning of the year, the guerillaclassics team has been meeting at the “Gleis” café in Zurich. Together with “Welcome to School” - the school for young refugees - we discuss different cultural concepts, play games and come up with possible future artistic projects, concerts or festival highlights for the free flow festival. 
During the discussions, it became clear that there is great interest in artists from the guerillaclassics network giving workshops as part of the school program that are open to students and the public at the same time. In terms of disciplines, visual art, music, DJ crafts, rap and poetry as well as dance were requested.
The first workshop will take place before the summer vacation with Sixte Kakinda, an artist from the Democratic Republic of Congo. He will be giving a workshop focusing on comic drawing. Dr. Sixte Kakinda is a graduate of the Tokyo University of the Arts and is currently in residence at Atelier Mondial via Pro Helvetia in Basel.
