We organise a watercolour workshop for beginners; The teacher is an advanced graphic designer and painter Tiana Diakova, whose works you can check on Instagram: @diakova_art.

The workshop is adapted to a beginner's level (every time people who never painted before are surprised with the result they achieve!) But also the process will be interesting for those who draw or paint already. For architects, designers, and illustrators it's a good way to discover a new technique and material and make new contacts) All materials are included so there is no need to bring anything. The process will take 2-2,5 hours.

**TORNEM A LA CIUTADELLA!!** **NO us equivoqueu de lloc!** **[QUÉ ES EL SOFTCOMBAT?](https://youtu.be/Essu82NpRvc)** **[Qué es el Jugger? | El Jugger, qué es y cómo jugarlo](https://youtu.be/dfyrlQn14oM)** **[Qué es el LARP?](https://youtu.be/fB3FkxDZhBA)** El Softcombat és una activitat esportiva en la qual, mitjançant armes embuatades (conegudes com boffers), es recreen combats medievals, es practiquen jocs d'equip i s'aprenen moviments marcials de combat. El Rol en Viu consisteix a afegir-li una acció més teatral i dramàtica a aquests enfrontaments. Si t'interessa aprendre a combatre, emular les lluites de les teves pel·lícules favorites, lluitar amb espasa, subjectar un escut, dominar els secrets de l'equilibri de peus o fer fitnes d'un mode diferent; el Softcombat i el Rol en Viu són una activitat que has de provar. **És durant el matí de 11h a 13.30h quan major quantitat de participants es reuneixen.

**THE RPG EVENT** We are pleased to announce the ninth RPG event of the Barcelona Roleplaying Community, where we'll have 10 tables with totally different and unique games. Everyone is welcome to join, from experts to first-time players; no experience is needed or knowledge about the system. We will play in **ENGLISH**. The cost of participation is **8 EURO**, which you will pay at the entrance. **THE ADVENTURE**: Hunt for the Thessalhydra **GAME MASTER**: Stephan **SYSTEM**: D&D 5e Stranger Things **DESCRIPTION**: *Something sinister lurks in the darkness. The boundary between worlds grows thin.* The realm of Sir Tristan trembles under an ancient threat. Deep beneath cursed caverns, through a labyrinth that defies reality itself, the legendary **Thessalhydra** has awakened—a nightmare with seven writhing heads, each hungry for heroes foolish enough to seek it. But the horror doesn't end there. To reach this beast, you must venture into the **Upside Down**—a twisted mirror dimension where reality decays, natural healing fails, and the monstrous **Demogorgon** stalks its prey through perpetual shadow. The very air tastes of ash and terror. This is **Mike Wheeler's legendary campaign** from Stranger Things, brought to life at your table. Whether you're Will the Wise wielding arcane power, Dustin the Dwarf with your trusty hammer, or one of the other iconic heroes, you'll face troglodyte hordes, decipher deadly riddles from a spectral knight, navigate trap-filled dungeons, and confront horrors that shouldn't exist. **Perfect for**: New and experienced players alike. No D&D experience necessary—all rules and pre-made characters provided. Fans of Stranger Things will recognize the adventure, but knowledge of the show isn't required to enjoy this atmospheric dungeon crawl. **PLACE**: We will play at the [ARCHIVO ARCANO](https://www.archivoarcano.com/). Please, wait next to the entrance where you will be welcomed and guided by one of the organizers. **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. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **IF YOU HAVEN'T JOINED THE GAME IN TIME** At the moment, there is no waiting list. If a player drops out, we will reopen the event and announce it on Discord (and possibly on Meetup). 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. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **IF YOU ARE NEW TO THE BARCELONA ROLEPLAYING COMMUNITY** Join us at [DISCORD](https://discord.gg/vNWpsp99db)

Saddle up space cowboys for a music-fuelled one-shot that juggles gambits, blues and tight-knit crews. 3, 2, 1… Let's jam! Orbital Blues a lo-fi space western roleplaying game. A roleplaying love-letter to off-beat sci-fi, vintage music, and cooperative old-school styled roleplay, Orbital Blues allows you to play out rules-light tabletop adventures in the style of space westerns such as Cowboy Bebop, Firefly and Guardians of the Galaxy. We'll play a short one-shot with pre-gen characters, all reflecting an archetypal spaceship crew, from The Mechanic to The Heartbreaker. Players will be encouraged to roleplay and think about music and troubles for their character to explore as we jam. The X-Card system and safeguarding will be in place, but this is a bluesy, trouble-filled rpg, so be aware!

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! For this event, we’ll help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents, wash dishes and clean surfaces at Fath Mission – Grant Kitchen. We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. Our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces. PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for BRUNCH from 10:30am to 12:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 10:15am and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1, indicated in the attached map. On-site and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: \* LSS Volunteer Guidelines: Uploaded to photos. \* Parking Map Info: Uploaded to photos. \* LSS Faith Mission Orientation Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp46_6ay6iA \* Link with Additional Details / Info: https://lss.vomo.org/opportunity/faith-mission-grant-kitchen-2025 IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With very few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. THANK YOU: This CMG Gives Back event provides an opportunity for YOU to get involved in helping others! Benefits go well beyond the help we give to others. Volunteering provides a wide range of personal benefits, including positive effects on mental and physical health, reduced stress/depression/anxiety, increased happiness and improved purpose, life-satisfaction and personal well-being! Plus, the opportunity to get involved, connect with others and help those in need. PARTNER AGENCY: This event is hosted by Lutheran Social Services (LSS), which serves thousands of people in need each day in 27 Ohio counties by addressing the four core societal issues of food, shelter, safety and healing. LSS offers food through the LSS Food Pantries, housing and supportive services through LSS Faith Mission and LSS Faith Mission of Fairfield County homeless shelters, domestic violence services through LSS CHOICES for Victims of Domestic Violence, senior living and health care, affordable housing communities, and other services that uplift families and strengthen communities. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
