An evening that makes language visible: Inclusive Reading Journey to Braille at Brunsviga

This reading at Brunsviga connects poetry, inclusion, and literary experience for a special evening in Braunschweig. The focus is on the poetry collection Look Here – Poetry in Braille, which makes printed and Braille text a joint, sensory reading experience. Admission is free, and the event takes place on Friday, June 12, 2026, at 19:00 in a room where literature literally becomes tangible with hands, eyes, and voice.

When Poetry Gains Tactile Sensation

The event offers a rare perspective on Braille as a cultural form, not just as an aid. The evening with Ron Winkler and blind Braille reader Dagmar Krause illustrates how closely literary quality and social participation are connected. The reading promises not a distant stage routine but an author encounter with a clear reading atmosphere and a lively approach to contemporary poetry.

A Book Project Between Language and Participation

Look Here – Poetry in Braille was created in collaboration with the Blind and Visually Impaired Association of Lower Saxony and the Culture Machines Publishing House. The project connects typography, rhythm, and perception in a way that deserves special attention in the literary scene. The moderation will also provide information about Braille and thus open up an expanded cultural discourse on reading, seeing, and accessibility.

The Venue: Brunsviga as a Cultural Resonance Space

The cultural center Brunsviga at Karlstraße 35 is one of the defining venues in the eastern ring area of Braunschweig. The address is well-connected; the tram line M3 stops at Mozartstraße. For drivers, there is an in-house underground garage with 22 parking spaces, and additional free parking is available on weekdays from 5 PM, as well as on weekends and public holidays at Böcklinstraße 28/29. The location is considered barrier-friendly and is particularly suitable for an inclusive reading with its open cultural atmosphere.

Literary Experience with Social Depth

Anyone attending this evening will experience not just a reading but a concentrated form of literary mediation. The combination of poetry, Braille, reading, and moderated framing creates an evening that is both poetic and educational. For literature lovers who think of contemporary poetry and inclusion together, this creates a remarkable cultural experience.

Conclusion: The Inclusive Reading Journey to Braille promises an open, touching, and intellectually stimulating evening with poetry and perspective shifts. Anyone wanting to experience literature as a vibrant cultural form should not miss this event at Brunsviga.
