An autumn day full of literature, music, and culture in Erding
When autumn lays its colors over Erding, the city library, meeting house, and art association transform into an open cultural space for all generations on Sunday, October 18, 2026. The event day starts at 11 a.m. with a traditional matinee and leads into a versatile open house from 1 p.m.
Literary matinee with autumn atmosphere
The morning's focus is on Birte Lau, Vroni Vogel, and Peter B. Heim. Their literary texts are dedicated to the theme of autumn and open a resonance space for transience, nature observation, and the gentle transitions between light and dark. The reading combines different voices, perspectives, and styles into a concentrated literary experience.
The matinee is musically accompanied by Dieter Knirsch, Quirin Vogel, and Katarina Farbová. Language and music enter into an atmospheric dialogue: The voice is given space while the musical accents deepen the poetic character of the morning.
Open house with a diverse program
From 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., the city library, meeting house, and art association invite you to a coordinated cultural program. The city library offers opportunities to browse, borrow media, and visit the reading garden. A coffee and cake buffet from the mothers' center adds a social component to the literary program.
For families, face painting from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and a picture book cinema at 4 p.m. are part of the offerings. At 2 p.m., Birte Lau presents a poetry slam before a harp concert with Barbara Pöschl-Edrich at 3 p.m. provides a musical highlight.
Encounter, creativity, and art
An open atmosphere of exchange also develops in the meeting house. Between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m., there will be a mobile consultation, origami, dry felting, and space for good conversations on the program. Manfred Trautmann will also introduce beginners to the game of Schafkopf in two sessions.
The musical reading Max and Moritz starts at 2:30 p.m. At 3:30 p.m., Klaus Schiermann reads Robert T. Odemann. The art association opens its studio under the motto of getting to know the association, becoming creative, and engaging in conversation over small snacks.
A cultural Sunday for all generations
The event combines readings, poetry slams, music, picture book cinema, art mediation, and open encounters. It is precisely this combination of different genres that makes the day a special part of the Erdinger literature scene: literature does not appear in isolation but as part of a vibrant cultural network.
The first floor of the meeting house is accessible via the elevator in the city library. For access, there are parking spaces available at Mühlgraben and the city bus stop Rathaus.
Conclusion: Experience literature and culture live
The matinee and the subsequent open house offer a varied autumn Sunday between linguistic art, music, creativity, and personal encounters. Those who want to experience literature not only by reading it but in its voice, rhythm, and immediate atmosphere will find a versatile cultural program for the whole family in Erding.
