Radioactive Superhero Doodle Party!
Sat, Jul 25 · 11:00 AM EDT
Buzz Cafe, 129 W Montgomery Ave, Philadelphia, PA, US
Come on out and doodle with us!
This month's theme is:
RADIOACTIVE SUPERHEROES
(feel free to interpret that as you wish!)

Pens and paper provided, but feel free to bring your own supplies if you'd like.
All ages welcome!

Doodle Party is a casual way to meet people and chat in a creative environment.
No experience or artistic criteria, just having fun doodling with pen and paper in a creative environment.

Buzz Cafe is an incredibly unique space! Worth the visit alone!
Also, Buzz Cafe has great food and drink!

HOW IT WORKS:
You are encouraged to bring supplies (pens and paper), but we'll have some on-hand if you need them. This is NOT a sketching club, so no pencils or erasers! This is all about quickly doodling with pen!

The event will be mostly free-form, though some doodling games or exercises might be included based on the group's mood!
PLEASE try to RSVP as space can be limited!

Sci-Fi Obscura Video Club: OBEX
Sun, Jul 26 · 2:00 PM EDT
Higher Grounds, 631 N 3rd St, Philadelphia, PA, US
This month we discuss...
OBEX (2025)
Something just a LITTLE bit different this month.....

Note: The film is available for rental on many platforms. (by the far the cheapest seems to be Youtube)
Otherwise, I did find an upload here:
https://ok.ru/video/11893145668143

And the film is ALSO available (if you have a library card) on the free library streaming platforms, Kanopy and Hoopla.

As always, please watch the entire movie sometime before the event so you can talk about it!

ABOUT THE CLUB:
We're based in the Philadelphia area and function exactly like a book club, but only for Sci-Fi Movies and TV series!
Each month we meet and discuss a specific movie or TV show!
Discussions are partially led, but also very freeform!

Our emphasis is on not-too-mainstream science fiction films. In other words, no big Hollywood blockbusters that EVERYONE has seen.
Older films, foreign films, films that may be off the beaten path.
