**\*TO ATTEND GET TICKETS AT:** [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/grand-central-murder-mystery-scavenger-hunt-tickets-1039615376577?](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/grand-central-murder-mystery-scavenger-hunt-tickets-1039615376577) (This is co-organized by 30+ groups so don't go by RSVPs you see here. We'll have a good # attending. Must prepay to attend.) You don’t need any special skills — just a sense of adventure and curiosity! This unique scavenger hunt is all about connecting, uncovering history, exploring Grand Central and solving a mystery. Join us for a fun, social adventure at our Grand Central Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. Get ready to have a good time making new friends and solving a mystery. Plus, you'll find out things about Grand Central you never knew before! How It Works: * **When you arrive we will put you on teams - if you don’t already have one (90% of those attending will not have a team).** * **Each team will be given a list of clues and 75 minutes to head to Grand Central to uncover the mystery of Mary’s demise. The team with the most points wins.** * **Once everyone is back we'll safely socialize where you can share your experiences with the others.** The Theme: Meet Up Mary is a regular on the social circuit in New York. You'd probably know her if you've been out before. She was very personable, friendly and bubbly! Unfortunately Mary met a horrific end at Grand Central and the police need you help to solve her case! Join us for this fun and educational night where you will get to explore every corner of the NYC Landmark in ways that you never have before! (If you have participated in our other Grand Central Hunts no worries as this is a completely different experience) FAQs: **Can I come alone?** Yes about 90% will attend on their own. **What's dress code?** Wear what you had on at work. It's casual and comfortable. **What are the ages?** 21 and over. We'll have a good mix of ages. **How much to attend?** $25 (goes to $35 as event gets closer). **Do I have to buy in advance?** Yes. Space is limited and this will sell out.

Room 8: Revolutionary Road — One Love, Two Lives

Room 8: Revolutionary Road — One Love, Two Lives

Sat, Oct 10, 2:00 PM
From Film Club Room 8: Film, Psychology & Conversation

You can love each other — and still be unhappy together. You can imagine one life together, only to realize one day that somehow you are living another. And when one person decides to change something, it changes more than just their own life — the relationship itself can no longer remain exactly as it was. On October 10 at Room 8, we’ll watch Revolutionary Road (2008) and talk about love, intimacy, disappointment, and what happens between two people when their ideas of a shared life begin to pull in different directions. Before the film, we’ll begin with a short psychoanalytic introduction — a few ideas and questions that may offer a different way of seeing the story. After the screening, we’ll stay for a conversation — about the film, its characters, and what the story stirred in each of us. Not to decide who was right or what the director “really meant.” We’re more interested in our own reactions: Who did you sympathize with? Who frustrated you? Whom did you want to blame or defend? And why can the very same relationship look so different depending on who is watching? We’ll watch and discuss the film in a small group of up to 12 people — intimate enough for this to remain a conversation, rather than a discussion from the audience, and for everyone to have a place in the dialogue. No background in psychology or film is required. Just an interest in good films, in people, and perhaps a little curiosity about yourself. The meeting will be facilitated by Aleksandr Stepanov and Renata Urakcheeva, both trained in psychoanalysis and group work. Your spot is reserved once payment is received. The film ends. The experience begins.
