Join us for dinner and discussion about queer books! For our next book, we will be reading **“The Song of Achilles”** by **Madeline Miller**. **Blurb:** Achilles, "the best of all the Greeks," son of the cruel sea goddess Thetis and the legendary king Peleus, is strong, swift, and beautiful, irresistible to all who meet him. Patroclus is an awkward young prince, exiled from his homeland after an act of shocking violence. Brought together by chance, they forge an inseparable bond, despite risking the gods' wrath. They are trained by the centaur Chiron in the arts of war and medicine, but when word comes that Helen of Sparta has been kidnapped, all the heroes of Greece are called upon to lay siege to Troy in her name. Seduced by the promise of a glorious destiny, Achilles joins their cause, and torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus follows. Little do they know that the cruel Fates will test them both as never before and demand a terrible sacrifice. **The Plan** 19:00 Meeting @ the restaurant 19:15 Dinner & discussion 20:45 Choosing a short novel for July 21:00 End **Dinner** The name of the restaurant will be announced in the WhatsApp group chat. **What to do** 1\.

您上一次帶著好奇心走入哲學課堂是什麼時候？您是否在各處接觸過佛學思想的片段不明其意？兩千年前，释迦摩尼老师教授了我们看待生命獨特的方法。今日，我們誠邀您和學者面對面，從非宗教的角度一起學習佛學思想。 本次講座內容簡介： 學佛法的目標是什麼？ 妙法蓮華，微妙香潔；經中之王，照破迷關。被譽為“經中之王”的它，穿越千年依然鮮活。釋迦牟尼老師晚年宣說《法華經》，開權顯實，會三歸一。指出一切眾生皆應成佛，一切眾生皆可成佛。用七個比喻，將深奧佛法化作易懂的箴言。 其中的觀世音菩薩普門品在中國廣為流傳，講述了觀世音的願力與境界，理解了觀世音，觀世音菩薩才會有求必應。 講座將逐品解讀全經二十八品要義，以通俗語言拆解“三乘歸一”的核心思想， 用生活化案例解讀“法華七喻”的深刻內涵，結合現代語境，讀懂“開權顯實”的智慧。學習者不會困於晦澀經文，不必苦於無人指引。 哪怕是初次接觸經典，也能輕鬆入門，真正瞭解釋迦摩尼到底教了我們什麼，感受到佛法的力量。 講者： 李思涯，香港科大人文學部老師，香港科大金樂琦家企家辦研究中心訪問學者，中國古典文學專業。不同於法師的宣經布道，以學者的眼光深入經典的學理脈絡，協助讀者學習理解，帶動學習過程輕鬆愉快，提綱挈領；佛教知名法師首肯，學界學者讚許，聽眾廣泛信任。 Whatsapp 報名: 44490049 **地址：上環文咸西街44-46號903室** 更多資訊可以留意我們的 IG: Midnight_bliss_studio 或網站: https://midnightbliss-studio.com/

Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome!

Let’s meet and wander the galleries! General admission on Sundays is free.

Ciao a tutt\*! Let's meet Monday at 6.30pm at the Upper Arlington Library (**Tremont** Branch) in **Meeting Room A** to speak in Italian for 1 hour.

Come join our welcoming, low-pressure environment where you can practice performing, build confidence, stay motivated, and connect with others who play piano. Each session is intentionally structured and hosted to ensure everyone has time to play (if they choose), feel supported, socialize, and enjoy the experience. It’s not a class, but a thoughtfully guided space to help you stay consistent and make meaningful progress. **Details:** * Gatherings take place in a private home setting in the Northwest Columbus area (location to be shared after RSVPing) * Small group (max 7–8 participants) to keep the sessions personal and ensure everyone has time to play * Light snacks and refreshments provided * Small fee to support hosting and keep the group high quality and motivated

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation. We’ll begin with a short grounding moment, followed by a brief reading from spiritual or philosophical traditions, and an open reflection circle where participants can share (or simply listen). Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.
