Dec 11 - The Psychedelic Tzadik in Amsterdam

Drumroll please – The Psychedelic Tzadik is visiting us in Amsterdam. And you are most welcome to join The Collective Liberation Workshop.

The Collective Liberation Workshop, led by The Psychedelic Tzadik—the drag king persona of artist Julie Weitz—invites participants to transform existential tsuris (trouble) into creative discovery through clowning, storytelling, and embodied improvisation. Drawing from Yiddish culture, Hasidic wisdom, and drag, this participatory experience offers a playful yet profound space to explore identity, justice, and cultural memory. Together, we confront personal and collective challenges while embracing the joy, absurdity, and radical potential of clowning.

About Julie Weitz
Currently based in Berlin, Julie Weitz (she/her) is an artist, writer, and educator who creates embodied, collective experiences for repair by unearthing the wounds and resilience of diasporic culture. Her research-driven practice animates figures from Yiddish folklore, exploring themes of loss and healing through their interactions at culturally significant sites—especially those where Yiddish culture was nearly eradicated.Through caricature, folklorism, and emplacement, Weitz situates her practice within evolving trajectories of Jewish cultural expression, in solidarity with global liberation movements.
