**Free walking tour - tips welcomed!** Join Paris-see Tours for a playful wander through the cobbled streets of Montmartre, where windmills once turned, absinthe flowed, and Paris showed the world how to party. We’ll dive into the long-gone cabarets and buzzing nightlife that gave birth to Bohemia at the legendary Moulin Rouge, where scandal, can-can, and artists collided. Along the way, we’ll visit the former home of Vincent and Theo Van Gogh. You’ll discover what Montmartre looked like before Georges-Eugène Haussmann reshaped Paris with grand boulevards, hear the dramatic tale of the Paris Commune, and uncover why the Sacré-Cœur watches over the city from the hilltop. We’ll finish our adventure at the romantic Wall of Love, where “I love you” is written in over 250 languages — because after this tour, you just might fall in love with Montmartre too.

The topic for May is "Ink" 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!

By popular demand, the group wanted to read and discuss the semi-autobiographical novel by Henri-Pierre Roche, that inspired the Truffaut movie we watched last year. The book is available through the Columbus Library's interlibrary loan system. They reported there are twenty-eight copies available in the state of Ohio. If you have a library card, you can file an interlibrary loan request here: https://www.columbuslibrary.org/library-services/ . There are also used copies available on Amazon and eBay for under twenty dollars. You may want to rewatch the movie after reading the book, so we can compare and contrast in our discussion. The Columbus Library has four copies on DVD, and it's streaming on HBOMax.
