What does it mean to be truly happy? In a world that constantly encourages us to achieve more, own more, and become more, many people still find themselves searching for a deeper sense of fulfillment. Is happiness something we acquire from the outside, or something we uncover within? This gathering invites us to explore one of humanity's oldest and most important questions: What is happiness? Through mindful reading, open dialogue, and personal reflection, we will examine different perspectives on happiness—from psychology and philosophy to mindfulness and contemplative traditions. Together, we will explore: • What is the difference between pleasure and happiness? • Why do achievements and possessions often fail to provide lasting satisfaction? • Can happiness exist independently of external circumstances? • How can mindfulness help us cultivate inner well-being? This is not a lecture or debate. It is a space for inquiry, listening, and shared exploration. Our Three Principles • No debating • No judging • No preaching Whether you are new to mindfulness or have an established contemplative practice, you are warmly welcome to join us. Come with curiosity. Leave with new insights. 📚 Topic: What Is Happiness? ☕ Format: Reading, Reflection & Group Discussion 🌿 Atmosphere: Open, Respectful, Mindful Free of Charge. Location, Mindful peace Academy Consell de cent 394, Barcrlona, 08009

**The RPG School Initiative** a *beginner-focused* one-shot event series RPG School offers a beginner-focused, relaxed atmosphere to experience the joy of table-top roleplaying gaming for the first time. We will show you the ropes and dice, take you on a fun adventure and are prepared for all your questions. No prior experience with roleplaying or the system is needed. We will be playing Daggerheart, a new Fantasy RPG by Critical Role, using a world called Beast Feast: A bit absurd, certainly comedic, sometimes creepy, but always fun and silly. You will be playing with three to four other players at one table, the assignment happens during the event. We start each adventure with a short introduction, where you learn about the basics and pick your pre-made character. Afterwards we dive into a unique experience, explaining the rules and concepts while actually playing the game. At the end, we have time to talk and find connections as well as hear your thoughts and questions. All games are in English. The cost of participation is **8 Euro**, which you will pay at the entrance. Never played RPGs and always wanted to try? This is your event! **GAME MASTERS**: Philippe & Ameer **SYSTEM**: Daggerheart, using the Beast Feast campaign setting **DESCRIPTION**: For as long as anybody can remember, your village has been a safe haven. A powerful lure drew all the dangerous creatures in your forest down into caves beneath. Your community lived a simple life of peace for generations, only taking what you needed and leaving the lush but dangerous undergrounds to the monsters. But recently, the lure seems to have lost its allure. Monster sightings have grown and just last night, there was even an attack on your mayor, Doug Dougle! He survived but it was a shock for your community. You and your friends decide to tackle the problem yourselves. You arm yourself with a rolling pin, a fishing rod or whatever other odd tool you find. Packing only the essentials, you head out and turn west, to the well-known but shunned entrance to the legendary endless caves. What dangers and wonders will you encounter? What happened to the lure? And what will you eat on your journey? **TONE:** The tone of the setting and adventures will be absurd, comedic and lighthearted. Still, fighting somewhat creepy monsters will be part of the experience. Safety mechanisms will be provided to ensure everybody’s comfort. **PLACE**: We will play at the [ARCHIVO ARCANO](https://www.archivoarcano.com/). (Carrer del Rosselló, 195, Eixample, Barcelona). Please wait in the lobby to be welcomed and guided by one of the organizers. The entrance to the venue costs **8€.** **DRINKS & FOOD**: You can purchase drinks at the place, but you are NOT ALLOWED to bring them from outside. You CAN bring your own food. You even should do that ;). If you don't do that there will be an option to buy some snacks at the place or get a sandwich in the restaurant nearby. **ACESSIBILITY**: We try to keep the event accessible for everyone. Please let us know if you require special access (e.g. wheelchair) or care (e.g. noise sensitivity) during the event. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **WAITING LIST** Players who arrive more than 15 minutes late will automatically forfeit their spot, which will then be offered to people waiting at the venue. If you decide to show up without a reserved place, you may still be able to join a table if a spot becomes available. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **NEW TO BARCELONA ROLEPLAYING GROUP?** Join us on our [Discord](https://discord.gg/vNWpsp99db) where you find other players and gamemasters, connect with fellow peers and talk about table top roleplaying, video games and board games.

**Una tragicomèdia apocalíptica al més estil de Jordi Oriol.** El present ha imposat un ultimàtum a la humanitat, si de veritat vol tenir futur. Mentre un gabinet científic convocat d'urgència dissenya un pla per respondre a la desintegració de la matèria que permet la vida humana, dos germans s'enfronten a la pèrdua del llenguatge que pateix el seu pare, amb la convicció que tot allò que deixa d'anomenar-se, deixa d'existir. Una història de números, explicada amb lletres. Terrenal, però amb el cap als núvols. Autoria i direcció: **Jordi Oriol** Intèrprets: **Joan Carreras** **Mia Esteve** **Carme Milán** **Carles Pedragosa** **Lara Segur** Idioma: Català Durada: 1h 30m.

We’re still working to get more people into these Meetups, but our goal is to give PlayYourCourt members a few social tennis outings each week in addition to your practice sessions and Challenge League matches. These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun! Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up: https://www.playyourcourt.com/tennis-community/columbus-oh/meetup/ If you love tennis, we’d love to have you! Be sure and watch the quick video that explains how everything works. Happy hitting! - Scott

The topic for June is "Roadtrip" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Join us for Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn! Fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker faces a troubling assignment: she must return to her tiny hometown to cover the unsolved murder of a preteen girl and the disappearance of another. For years, Camille has hardly spoken to her neurotic, hypochondriac mother or to the half-sister she barely knows: a beautiful thirteen-year-old with an eerie grip on the town. Now, installed in her old bedroom in her family's Victorian mansion, Camille finds herself identifying with the young victims—a bit too strongly. Dogged by her own demons, she must unravel the psychological puzzle of her own past if she wants to get the story-and survive this homecoming.
