Jena, 05/09/2026. The Jena Stadtlab is transforming into a meeting point for art and coffee lovers for the next four weeks. With the pop-up project „Kreativ-Café Vivantia“ an interactive concept is moving into the premises, combining enjoyment and creative work.
- What: Opening of the Creative Café „Vivantia“
- Where: Stadtlab Jena
- When: Starting now, for a period of four weeks
- Management: Elena Efa (Art Therapist)
- Special features: Create your own coffee blends, design your own packaging, try out art techniques
Art Therapy Meets Relaxation
The operator and trained art therapist Elena Efa invites visitors to get creative in a cozy atmosphere. The temporary café offers a wide range of materials and artistic techniques that can be tried out directly on-site. The focus is on free experimentation, allowing interested parties of all ages to join in without prior knowledge.
Individual Coffee Blends as a Highlight
In addition to visual arts, the craft of coffee preparation is also a focus. At Vivantia, guests have the rare opportunity to put together their own personal coffee blend. To round off the creative experience, the coffee packaging can then be individually designed and painted. This creates a direct link between the luxury food item and one’s own artistic creation process.
Background: The Concept of the Stadtlab
The Stadtlab in Jena serves as a temporary open space for innovative concepts, start-ups, and creative ideas from the community. It offers local actors the opportunity to test their business ideas or cultural projects for a limited period under real conditions in a central downtown location. Pop-up concepts like the „Kreativ-Café Vivantia“ contribute significantly to the revitalization of the city center and promote active exchange between the creative industries, traditional retail, and residents. Through the regular rotation of offerings, the Stadtlab remains a dynamic attraction in the center of Jena.
