A new beginning for Brussels and Brussels2030: Let’s share tea together (offered).
Why join us on 21 march ?
It is the first day of spring, a symbol of renewal. On the eve of the commemorations marking ten years since the attacks of 22 March, we share a simple message: Brussels stands strong, together, enriched by its cultural, linguistic, and social diversity.
After 600 days of political crisis in Brussels, our city needs a shared project and positive energy more than ever. We choose to move beyond the deadlock, to look toward the future together, and to give Brussels new momentum.
Sadaka Tea is an invitation to come together and give a collective kick off, with the hope that this positive energy will spread across the entire Region. We are convinced that residents, artists, associations, and cultural actors have a vital role to play in setting Brussels back in motion. The word Sadaka means generosity, empathy, altruism, and solidarity, in other words sharing, in several languages around the world (Hebrew, Arabic, Sanskrit, Turkish, Swahili, Urdu).
We invite the people of Brussels to a simple yet powerful gesture: sharing tea together to affirm our collective ability to rise, to imagine, and to build our beautiful Brussels.
Because a strong city begins with connection. Because a city project can only be built together.
A circle to begin again together
At Place de la Bourse we will create a circular space, a symbol of renewal and inclusion.
2 pm: Poetic collection workshop
We write our messages for the future of the city. We share our hopes for this new season. Feel free to stop by and leave your dreams for Brussels.
6 pm: Tea ceremony, speeches and shared musical moment
A moment of generosity and listening, inspired by traditions where tea brings people together and creates calm.
Every word will become part of a collective artwork visible throughout the first weekend of spring.
A tangible sign that we choose openness rather than withdrawal on all sides. Come with your loved ones, friends, families, colleagues or neighbours to share a convivial moment. We offer the tea, feel free to bring something sweet.
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday 21 March at 6 pm at Place de la Bourse. Together. To rebuild pride in Brussels.
