Every Tuesday we host a conversation club to practice English in the HerculesHoek. Ukrainians interact with volunteers on various topics to learn to speak English better.
The HerculesHoek is Welkom in Utrecht's living room at the shelter for Ukrainians at Herculesplein. It is a meeting space between Ukrainians and local residents and we organize activities where everyone can participate.
Come have a drink, study or play a game in The Living Room of The Pahud. Meet new people there or meet up with those you already know. Sometimes you can participate in a workshop. Everyone is welcome! On Mondays between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. for women only.
At Het Wilde Westen, the sewing studio is open weekly. It's not a class, but under Yink's guidance you can work on your own with the fabric and sewing machines available! So if you would like to make something, come by on Wednesdays at Het Wilde Westen.
