WHO ARE WE?
We are the Zentralwäscherei association and run a non-commercial cultural and meeting space in Kreis 5. We strive to create a space for encounters, art, culture and gastronomy that is as inclusive as possible. You can find out more about us and our principles here: zentralwaescherei.space/principle
WHAT IS THE OPERATIONS TEAM (BT)?
The BT currently consists of twelve people who carry out the administrative work involved in running the Zentralwäscherei and are responsible for the operational management of the ZW in consultation and close cooperation with the association and its teams.
