**📌 What** Stuck in Milan for Christmas? Family far away? Or maybe you just want to escape the yearly debate about *Panettone vs Pandoro*? Whatever the reason, spending Christmas Eve alone is illegal in our book. Join us at Ostello Bello for a special festive edition of "Paint & Sip."

It’s the perfect vibe for expats and travelers: no stress, good wine, and new friends. **How it works:** The deal is a Christmas miracle: **8€** gets you a glass of wine and all the art supplies you need (canvas, paint, brushes). Arrive, grab your kit at the bar, and look for the group of people looking festive and slightly artistic. ❗️The Meetup team won’t be there (we are busy eating lasagna), you need to connect with other participants in the Whatsapp chat to form a group!

**Before the new year begins, you are invited to a quiet, intentional hour of coloring together in silence. *There is no fee to attend.*** Coloring gives your hands something simple to do, which allows the nervous system to slow down and the mind to wander without pressure. Many people find that clarity arises on its own, not because they are trying to reflect, but because they finally have room to. This is not spiritual. It is not therapeutic. It is not a workshop. There is nothing to achieve, fix, or prepare for. It is simply a communal pause and a quiet way to let the year land before moving on. This is a phone-free, expectation-free space to slow down and take personal inventory of the year that is ending. There are no prompts, no discussion, and nothing to share. Just time to sit, color, and let your thoughts settle naturally in the presence of others doing the same. Attendance is capped at 10 people to keep the space calm and intimate. ### How the hour will work: * **First 15 minutes:** Arrive, get comfortable, choose your coloring materials, order at the bar, and hear a brief explanation of the format and guidelines * **Next 45 minutes:** Coloring in silence * After the session ends, those who wish are welcome to stay and socialize ### What to expect: * 45 minutes of silent coloring * No phones and no conversation during the coloring time * Materials provided (FREE), or bring your own if you prefer * A calm and respectful environment * **Please arrive a little in advance & purchase your beverage at the bar** ### Who this is for: * Women 35+ * Anyone feeling mentally full, overstimulated, or tired of constant doing * Those who want a low-pressure way to close the year without rituals or resolutions Free to attend. Come as you are, even if you do not feel particularly reflective or festive. Sometimes the most meaningful reset is simply being still together.

**Calling all queer crochet enthusiasts;** I am a visual artist located in Columbus that is searching for people who may want to gather while also participating in creating a piece of artwork. My goal is to spend time enjoying one another’s company while making a work of art that will be displayed within our community. I plan to teach people to crochet (if unfamiliar) while also inviting current fiber artists to join us for some much-needed social interaction. There are no expectations from those who attend, materials will be included, and any amount of participation is welcome! If you have a favorite crochet hook or current project you are welcome to bring that along too! The primary goal is to foster a safe space for our community to chat, create and be. For further information please email [landerknits@outlook.com.](http://landerknits@outlook.com.) \*This will be our first meeting, bring friends and make new ones.

**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
