Easter Monday carries a different kind of energy — somewhere between a long weekend, a fresh start, and the feeling that spring is finally here. This Social Butterfly Club Meetup brings that energy into a relaxed Monday evening. A space to connect, share conversations, and start the week with a bit more lightness and curiosity. 🌷 There might be a few small Easter surprises hidden around — nothing too serious, just a playful excuse to look around, smile, and maybe start a conversation with someone new. 🐣 Whether you’ve spent the weekend with people, by yourself, or somewhere in between — this is a chance to step back into the city and connect. ✨ Suggested Ice Breaker Question: “What has been a highlight of your long weekend?” Orga This meetup is donation based.

**Ice bathing together at Treptower Park and surroundings – regular & reliable ☀️❄️** Exact time and date - we schedule together! Meetup once a week! Hello everyone, I’m looking for a like-minded person (or a small group) who would like to go ice bathing together once a week on a regular basis – preferably at Treptower Park and the surrounding area. The day and time are flexible for me; what matters most to me is reliability and consistency. I’ve been ice bathing for several years and value this practice greatly: as an energising time in nature, as a shared act of overcoming oneself, and as something that is noticeably beneficial for both body and mind. For me, it has positive effects on health, sleep, and recovery – and it’s a wonderful way to start the next week feeling light, uplifted, and content. After four years, my previous ice-bathing partner is unfortunately no longer able to join, so I’m now happy to meet new people. I’m open and enjoy coordinating flexibly. If you already have experience, or if you’re curious and would like to try it out in a committed way, feel free to get in touch. I’m looking forward to the exchange and to arriving together in the cold water. Warm regards, Till

**Please be on time. No-show is a no-go!** After the event we can grab a coffee or some food. The Wrangelkiez ( is a densely populated residential neighborhood in eastern Kreuzberg, located right on the border with Friedrichshain and Treptow. The area is bounded by Skalitzer Straße and Görlitzer Park, the Landwehr Canal, and the Spree River. What we can expect: ### Urban Texture & Street Life Wrangelkiez is densely populated, and you feel it immediately: * Narrow streets lined with **Altbau façades**, often decorated with layers of street art * Independent cafés, bars, and small shops spilling onto the sidewalks * A constant flow of locals, artists, families, and visitors For street photographers, this means **authentic, unscripted moments** everywhere—people chatting on stoops, cyclists weaving through traffic, musicians setting up in front of Spätis. ### Colors, Graffiti & Visual Chaos The area is famous for its **vibrant graffiti**, sticker-covered poles, and murals. Perfect for: * Texture shots * Urban detail photography * Contrasts between old architecture and modern subculture ### Water & Light With both the **Landwehrkanal** and the **Spree** at its edges, the neighborhood offers softer, more atmospheric scenes: * Golden-hour reflections on the water * Bridges with strong geometric lines * Quiet canal paths that contrast beautifully with the busy streets inside the Kiez

We’ll be meeting up with fellow ***Sketchers & Artists*** to practice our ***quick sketching skills while enjoying nature,*** we’ll be walking a short ***2-3 kilometers*** into Grunewald, and along the Grunewaldsee. Nature is slowly waking up from its winter slumber, with moss, ivy and pine being the primary shades of green you’ll see. We’re taking this opportunity to do a series of ***quick sketches focused on shading***. You can draw what you choose, or even bring a camera to do some photography as well. As the trees are mostly still without their leaves, ***we’ll be focusing on details like moss covered logs, small wooden bridges, a sandbar along the lake and reeds growing at the lake shore***. You will also have the opportunity to sketch a scene of the ***Jagdschloos Grunewald***, seen best from across the lake due to ongoing construction. * If this is your first time sketching or 100th time sketching, you can find subjects that are right for you. ***You don’t need to be a professional at all!*** You should just want to practice your sketching skills while meeting new people, and hopefully sketching a bit better than you did the day before. * If this is your first time to Grunewaldsee, please be aware many locals have their dogs off leash in the area. * We will be stopping to do multiple 15 min sketches with the goal of improving our quick sketching skills. ***Quick sketching is a foundational sketching skill*** that seeks to simplify a scene while communicating the necessary details for a viewer to see and feel a scene or detail. This weekend, we’ll be focusing especially on the art of shading, and how it can be used to add a little extra pop to our sketches. These are sketching skills that can be applied across artistic mediums. * Bring your preferred drawing medium for short ***quick sketches***, and meet up with fellow nature sketchers. There are benches in the area, but you may wish to bring a small chair or cushion to make things more comfortable. * The drawings are purely for fun, and to get to know other artists and hobbyists in the area! * (This meet-up does *not* include entry to the Jagdschloos Grunewald) * Join us at 13:00 at the König-Louise-Straße Bus Stop (115, X10, N10, X83) near the Waldbaude Snack Bar (Clayallee 91, 14195 Berlin) with our host - Elizabeth, we’ll get to know one another and then set out as a group to sketch along the Grunewaldsee, it’s an out-and-back route along a lake with several opportunities for sketching, conversation and relaxing. We will sketch from 13:00-16:00 and then return to our meeting spot. ### 📲 Stay Connected Please do join our **WhatsApp / Telegram channels** for: * Event updates * Future trips & meetups * Early-bird discounts * Contests & giveaways 1.

**⚔️ Introduction to Wargaming & Painting Miniature Soldiers at The Arcane Foundry ⚔️** Join me in **The War Room at [The Arcane Foundry](https://share.google/S5i6DYJnJteHWeKtd)** for a laid-back evening of hobby talk and tabletop fun! For just **$25**, you’ll get a **3D-printed regiment of 20 high quality resin models** of your choice to paint — a **$40-$70 value if you were to buy them elsewhere!** (Please look up the price of minis, you are getting a steal). Bring your creativity, relax, and let’s make something awesome together. **Choose one from Below:** * 20 Cathayan Infantry * 20 Dwarf Warriors * 20 Wood Elf Spearmen Step into a world where strategy meets artistry — and where every painted figure tells a story of battle, honor, and imagination. Join **Daclaud** at **The Arcane Foundry** for an evening that introduces newcomers and enthusiasts alike to the timeless craft of **tabletop wargaming** and **miniature painting**. My own journey began with a fascination for fantasy — knights in armor, grim and hardened warriors, and monstrous creatures locked in epic battle. That passion led me to **Dungeons & Dragons**, where I painted my first **Basic Heroes set** and felt the spark that comes from bringing a character to life in miniature form. Not long after, I discovered **Warhammer Fantasy** and **Warhammer 40,000**, and I was hooked. The vision of vast armies clashing across the table — each unit meticulously painted, each story unfolding through dice and imagination — became my creative obsession. During this event, we’ll explore the **origins of wargaming**, from its early military simulations to the richly detailed worlds of modern tabletop battle systems. You’ll learn how to **build and customize your own armies**, paint your first figures, and experience the joy of turning strategy and storytelling into a hands-on art form. Whether you’re drawn by the lore, the hobby, or the thrill of commanding miniature legions, this introduction will open the gates to a world that has captivated hobbyists for generations. **🎨 RSVP today and join us at The Arcane Foundry — where every brushstroke and battle tells a story.**

Pay attention! We’re delaying a week for those of you who may be on Spring break and/or celebrating the holiday. Ok, no pancakes, but waffles-a-plenty. Join the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. Look for us upstairs!
