Opening Party at ÅBEN Brewery - An Evening of Processes with Kitchen Collective and Special Guests

The opening party for CAFx’ hub ‘Symbiotic Commons’ in the Meatpacking District will celebrate processes through food, drinks and discussions.

Matilda Rex

Come and join the celebration of the first evening of the Copenhagen Architecture Festival at ÅBEN Brewery with tours, talks, and discussions about the future of the Meatpacking District.

The talks will take place around a model of Kødbyen made entirely from unwanted materials sourced within the neighbourhood as a result of an architectural mapping. The model functions as a manifestation of how we interact through material connections and the use of resources in the Meatpacking District.

ÅBEN Brewery will be selling a wide selection of beers from their own production, and you will also have the possibility to try EVOO's creations made with surplus food from the neighbourhood.

Meet:

  • Philip Hulgaard, founder and CEO ÅBEN
  • Søren Pihlmann, the architect behind the transformation of the space
  • Simon Klindt and Eirik Bruun, landscape architects
  • Bodil Eiterstraum and Tyra Matilda Rex, architects
  • EVOO and Kitchen Collective
