En avril, le sujet sera la spontanéïté et l'expressivité du dessin! Seront privilégiés les dessins à l'encre (feutres, grands ou petits). Ce deuxième cours portera sur la captation de la dynamique des poses, les méthodologies qui peuvent le permettre, et leur restitution! On se retrouve à 19h30, mais qui veut peut arriver au local à partir de 19h pour grignoter, discuter! Il y aura du thé et du café pour qui veut, il faut retirer ses chaussures car c'est une salle de danse (donc les bottes à lacets attendront une autre soirée). Paiement en espèces (25€), sur place, et il y aura un chapeau pour qui veut donner un peu plus au modèle! Le matériel n'est pas fourni. Hâte de vous y voir! 🙂

Focaccia is one of Italy’s most beloved breads: soft, golden, fragrant, and wonderfully comforting. In this class, we’ll focus on the techniques that make all the difference—creating a dough that is light and airy, learning how to handle it gently, and giving it the right time to rise for that perfectly soft crumb and crisp golden surface. Expect a focaccia that is rich with olive oil, beautifully dimpled, and full of flavor, plus plenty of tips to recreate it at home with confidence. La focaccia est l’un des pains italiens les plus aimés : moelleuse, dorée, parfumée et terriblement réconfortante. Pendant l’atelier, nous nous concentrerons sur les gestes qui font toute la différence : préparer une pâte légère et aérée, apprendre à la travailler délicatement, et lui laisser le bon temps de pousse pour obtenir une mie bien moelleuse et une surface dorée et croustillante. Résultat : une focaccia généreuse en huile d’olive, joliment alvéolée, pleine de saveur, ainsi que plein d’astuces pour la refaire chez soi en toute confiance. **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)

Join us for a long pose workshop with a female model, led by figurative artist John Kelly. The session consists of 45 minutes of drawing or painting, followed by a 15-minute break, and then another 45 minutes with the same pose. John will be present throughout the entire session to offer individual guidance on the principles of drawing and painting from life. If you prefer a more self-directed approach, you are welcome to work independently at any time. The workshop is suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists. It offers a supportive environment to develop your artistic style while exploring different aspects of academic drawing or painting, experimenting with new techniques, or refining compositional ideas. It's designed to guide your exploration of the human form through an anatomical lens while capturing the model's emotional presence. As always, posing for you are professional fine art models affiliated with the Beaux-Arts de Paris and other Parisian life drawing ateliers. Please bring your preferred art materials. All media are allowed, including pastels, ink, watercolor, or paint. If you need additional advice on materials, such as oil paints or watercolor paper, please don’t hesitate to contact John directly at jfkellydesign@gmail.com or send us a message. This session doesn't provide a basic drawing materials set. Once again, please remember to bring your own art supplies. **About John Kelly** Born in Paris and raised in New York, John studied at the School of Visual Arts before pursuing a career as an art director and oil painter. He employs traditional oil painting methods while also painting *alla prima*. Influenced by Balthus, Degas, and traditional Japanese prints, his figurative work explores the psychology of the model and the viewer’s gaze. For more details, visit John’s website: johnkellyart.com. We kindly ask everyone to RSVP to secure their spot. If you haven't booked, we reserve the right to deny participation if the session is full.

\*\*Les billets sont gérés via LuMa. Merci de [prendre ta place ici.](https://luma.com/avyfq29z)\*\*​ **📚 Join The Offline Club at Le Kawaa du Lucernaire for a very special edition of our cosy Offline Reading Party.** ​Lock your phone away and immerse yourself in a morning designed to recharge you — with a twist. ​This time, we're celebrating **Slow Art Day** by turning our books into works of art. ​Because here's the thing: your book *is* art. The cover, the typography, the texture of the pages, the way a sentence is constructed. We just rarely slow down enough to notice. ​This reading party is your chance to disconnect from screens, unwind from the daily buzz, and meet like-minded people — while rediscovering your book through a completely different lens. ​A little escape into a different world — where time slows down, people are open to connect, and you can truly focus on yourself. ​The perfect start to your weekend. ✨ *** ​**What to expect:** ​📖 Peaceful (me-)time to read that book you've been meaning to start (or finish!) ​🎨 A Slow Art session that might just change the way you read... forever ​🤝 The chance to meet and connect with like-minded (wannabe) booklovers ​💬 A space where connection comes easily — no rush, no pressure, no notifications ​🫖 Community vibes, a welcoming atmosphere, and plenty of time to relax ​📵 Valuable time offline that leaves you feeling rested and fulfilled ​🇫🇷 🇬🇧 French & English friendly — all our events are bilingual, so you can comfortably speak either language *** ​**The Program:** ​**10:00 – 10:30 \| Arrive & Make Yourself at Home** ​**10:30 – 11:00 \| Slow Art Session** ​We'll begin by looking at our books the way you'd look at a painting in a museum: slowly, curiously, without rushing to "get through it." ​Led by an Art Therapist specialised in Museum Art Therapy and Book Therapy (yes, that's me, Stefania, your city leader 🙋‍♀️), this session will invite you to truly *see* your book before you read it. ​We'll also explore the idea of Slow Reading, because... did you know that's a thing too? ​**11:00 – 12:00 \| Dive Into Your Book** Your time to sit back and enjoy undistracted reading time — perhaps with fresh eyes after the session. ​**12:00 – 13:00 \| Connect With Others** ​Chat and connect with others, but only if you feel like it. ​Meet new people, share stories about your favourite reads, and enjoy meaningful conversations. ​We create laid-back spaces where talking to strangers is the norm and connection is made easy. *** ​**What to Bring** ​Your current read, a book with a cover that makes your heart sing, or both. ​Comics, poetry, graphic novels — all literature is welcome here. Come as you are, bring what moves you. *** ​​**About your phone:** *Your phone will rest in our “phone hotel,” and we’ll be its bodyguards. But just so you know, if it magically disappears, learns to fly, or mysteriously breaks, The Offline Club can’t be held responsible.* ​​*Not quite ready to let it go? No worries — just switch it off and keep it tucked away, out of sight.* *** ​We love and appreciate the venues that host our events! Please remember that your consumption gives the venues one more reason to love us back! *** ​**We can’t wait to swap screen time for real time with you.** ​​Offline hugs, ​​Stefania, The Offline Club Paris

The topic for April is "Water" 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!

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
