Join us for an easy hike starting from Girona. This is a scenic circular hike through riverside paths, quiet countryside tracks, and forest trails to the Salt del Timbarro waterfall near Sarrià de Ter. The route passes the Ter River, woodlands, farmland, and the historic church of Sant Pau before returning along the beautiful Ribes del Ter promenade. 🗺️ **Route:** [https://ca.wikiloc.com/rutes-senderisme/girona-salt-del-timbarro-ribes-del-ter-88780091](https://ca.wikiloc.com/rutes-senderisme/girona-salt-del-timbarro-ribes-del-ter-88780091) 🗓️ **Date:** Sunday 26 April 2026 🕘 **Meeting time:** 9 AM 📌 **Meeting point:** El Rellotge de la Devesa de Girona ([https://maps.app.goo.gl/X4gztYcr97CimQJ26](https://maps.app.goo.gl/X4gztYcr97CimQJ26)) 📏 **Distance:** 14 km ⬆️ **Elevation gain:** 167 m 🔁 **Type:** Loop 🟢 **Difficulty:** Easy **Join our WhatsApp group:** [gironabuddies.com/april26](gironabuddies.com/april26) *** **Everyone welcome!** Girona Buddies Hiking is a WhatsApp community, and we organise all our hikes and other events there: **WhatsApp group for this hike:** [gironabuddies.com/april26](gironabuddies.com/april26) **Our WhatsApp community:** [gironabuddies.com/hiking](www.gironabuddies.com/hiking) **Instagram:** [instagram.com/hikegirona](www.instagram.com/hikegirona) Looking forward to hiking with you! ✨ We organise all our hikes on WhatsApp at [gironabuddies.com/hiking](www.gironabuddies.com/hiking).

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Let’s meet, wander the exhibits and open galleries, and enjoy an evening out in the Franklinton Arts District. (Nearby pay parking is available in the garage on McDowell, right around the corner from One Line Coffee, and, past it along the curb as McDowell dead ends.)

**Let’s catch up and take an afternoon break.** **Grab a coffee or snack and let’s chit chat! Gayle and I will bring adult coloring books and/or a simple craft if you’d like to unwind and relax.😊**
