The initiative aimed to build a traveling bar kiosk on two wheels, made from recycled materials, assembled, and decorated by neighborhood residents: a small cart designed to carry beverages for anyone wishing to stop for a drink. This tiny yet valuable community hub serves as a gathering point where people can chat and reconnect as a community.  

The event was organized as part of the 2024 Festival of Rights.
