Photo Critique

Step into the world of color with our Color Walk, a unique evening during Milan Design Week where you’ll see the city in a whole new way. Together, we’ll stroll through the vibrant streets of the Tortona district, one of Milan’s most exciting hubs for design and creativity. This experience is designed not only to inspire your eye, but also to help you slow down, disconnect from the rush of the city, and truly enjoy the moment. During the walk, your eyes will open to colors everywhere: bold contrasts, hidden details, textures, and unexpected combinations that turn everyday spaces into sources of inspiration. It’s not about design knowledge; it’s about curiosity, observation, and letting your creativity flow. More than just a walk, this is a social and uplifting experience. You’ll meet like-minded women, share conversations, exchange perspectives, and maybe even make new friends — all in a warm, easy-going environment. It’s the perfect blend of creativity, connection, and relaxation. This is also a truly Instagram-worthy experience: snap your own photos, have your pictures taken in beautiful spots, and create a visual diary of your evening. We’ll end the experience with a complimentary aperitivo, a perfect moment to unwind, connect, and enjoy good company after the walk. This will also be the perfect setting to share stories, post your photos or create a reel celebrating your Color Walk. Come ready to see, feel, connect, and capture the colors of Milan in a way you’ve never experienced before! **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls. We provide access to hundreds of experiences that explore your passions and connect you with other event participants. **Check our website to learn more, and apply to join our community and events**: [lesamis.cc/apply](https://www.lesamis.cc/apply)

In yoga, the primary meaning of Vinyasa is “union of breath and movement”. The traditional sun salutation is an example of this, in which each movement is connected to a part of the breath. Vinyasa Yoga refers to a form of yoga that follows a specific series of asanas (postures). These postures are performed in sequence to create a specific pattern or fluid flow. The benefits of practising yoga are manifold, including improving one's attitude towards life. It teaches us discipline, helps us reduce stress, increases flexibility and strengthens our immune system. **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls.

"The SOB is a ballet dancer. He’s the best ballet dancer that ever lived, and if I get a good chance I’ll kill him with my bare hands." - W.C. Fields In *City Lights*, Chaplin's Little Tramp meets a blind girl selling flowers who mistakes him for a wealthy man. When he learns that an operation may restore her sight, he sets off to earn the money she needs to have the surgery. He also befriends an alcoholic millionaire who only recognizes him when he is drunk. When the blind girl and her grandmother fall behind in the rent and face eviction, he tries working and even enters a boxing competition to raise the money they need. Regarded as Chaplin's masterpiece, *City Lights* has been ranked on more than seventeen "100 greatest movies of all time" lists. Orson Welles cited it as his favorite picture. *City Lights* is available for streaming on Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBOMax, Tubi and PlutoTV. The Columbus Library lists three copies on blu-ray and eight copies on DVD. Watch the movie on your own, then join us upstairs at East Market to discuss the film. If you want more, *Unknown Chaplin* is a three-episode lost-footage documentary available on Youtube. It covers his time on *City Lights* beginning at the twenty-six minute mark of episode two: https://youtu.be/f8960Uc15hI?t=1558
