¡VISITA EXCLUSIVA! La comunidad de **monjas cistercienses** de Valldonzella **nos abre sus puertas para mostrar su monasterio modernista**. Además, lo haremos **durante el atardecer**, para poder contemplar la luz de la tarde en el precioso claustro y vidrieras modernistas de la iglesia. En esta ocasión, hemos conseguido que la congregación nos tenga preparada una visita al **único recinto monástico modernista** existente en Catalunya. Accederemos pues, a un recinto en el que en muy pocas ocasiones personas ajenas a la comunidad tienen acceso y pueden disfrutar de la belleza de **su claustro** o iglesia. Situado en la zona de la Bonanova, y muy cerca de Collserola, el actual edificio es obra del arquitecto Bernardí Martorrell i Puig, en el estilo más moderno de la época, el actualmente llamado “modernismo catalán”. Es un estilo con reminiscencias del arte medieval, y en su interior, podremos observar algunas pinturas medievales que guarda la comunidad. También, nos explicarán **anécdotas y curiosidades de la historia del monasterio** y de las vicisitudes de la comunidad en el marco de la historia de Barcelona de los últimos siglos. También hablaremos de cómo es hoy en día la vida en un convento de monjas y a qué actividades benéficas se dedican. Y es que en el precioso recinto, todavía vive una comunidad de monjas dedicada a la oración, el silencio, y el trabajo; que ha sido testimonio de la historia de nuestra ciudad. Os proponemos pues, una visita muy peculiar, única, y que pretende descubrir una joya del arte modernista prácticamente desconocida. ¡Anímate y siéntete un verdadero descubridor/a de Barcelona! Y como siempre, **acompañamiento y explicaciones de un guía licenciado en historia por la UB**. Éste es el **PLAN**: 1. Encuentro en FGC de Av. Tibidabo, en la Plaça Kennedy. 2.

Welcome to the Art School - 20's & 30's artists Meetup group! This is a community for young artists who are passionate about exploring different mediums and techniques in the world of art. Whether you're a painter, sculptor, photographer, or mixed media artist, this group is the perfect place to connect with like-minded individuals, have a space to work on your craft, and showcase your work. Let's inspire and support each other on our artistic journeys! Whether you're a novice or a seasoned artist, all skill levels are welcome. Join us and unleash your creativity! Afterwards, we will have time to work on our individual art projects, hang out, and if anyone is interested in feedback on their work, there will be time for that as well.

Let’s meet, wander the exhibits and open galleries, and enjoy an evening out in the Franklinton Arts District. (Nearby pay parking is available in the garage on McDowell, right around the corner from One Line Coffee, and, past it along the curb as McDowell dead ends.)

"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
