In the countryside

Enjoyable even when it's raining, a walk from Basel's Wasserturm, along residential streets and further through the fields, all the way to the Predigerhof, makes it clear that the local urban and agricultural areas are interwoven in a very close way. A lonely border stone amidst greenery is an only indication of the boundary between the city of Basel and the canton of Baselland.

It is here, on more than 50 acres of farmland, that this year's activities of the Basel Social Club - a non-profit organisation founded two years ago with the intention of creating social spaces for art - will take place. Artistic interventions, including large-scale sculpture by Iza Tarasewicz, will be positioned throughout the fields and in the barns; performances, open-air cinema and culinary delights will also be on offer, with host farmers actively involved in the events.  From June 9 - 16, 2024.
