Maria & Pepe is a thought, an idea, a wish. Sometimes, a real place with good food on the table. Other times, a conversation in wind, a crossing of paths, or an exchange of stories. Laugther, a shared dance, or a wink. A buenos días, or buenas noches. As you can see, it ‘s hard to describe. We pop-up somewhere, and fade into an echo. What’s left is a warm feeling, new friends, and good memories, and a bit more hope for yourself and the world.

Stichting Maria & Pepe aims to bring people together from all walks of life. We believe that peace starts when we open up to each other; especially in the little moments among the midst of the mundane and chaotic. With simplicity and lightness on either side, we pop-up with storytelling events, evenings of dance and music, workshops, food and a seasonal summer restaurant.

It’s very simple. Nothing fancy or scientific. Sometimes bombastic and discombobulated. But very gezellig. Muy divertido.

Con amor,
Maria & Pepe
