Hello members, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how so many of us have great ideas, but we keep them to ourselves — either because we’re scared they’re not “good enough,” or we just don’t have anyone to bounce them off of. That’s why I want to open up my little studio in Sheung Wan for a casual, no-pressure night of sharing and brainstorming. Whether you’re: * A founder with a half-baked startup idea you’ve been tinkering with * Someone who’s always daydreaming about a side project but doesn’t know where to start * Or just someone who loves hearing new perspectives and helping others refine their thoughts …this space is for you. No formal pitches. No slides. No “elevator speech” pressure. Just a room full of curious people, a few drinks, and the freedom to talk openly about what excites us. Let’s listen to each other, ask questions, and build on each other’s ideas. Sometimes the best things come from the messiest conversations. **RSVP by Whatsapp: 4449 0049** **Date:** 05 Mar (Thurs), 8:00pm – 10:00pm **Fee**: FREE **With snacks and soft drinks. (You can bring yours to share with us)** **Address:** Suite 903, 44-46 Bonham Strand West, Sheung Wan Come as you are. Bring an idea, or just bring your curiosity. Either way, you’re welcome. Let’s make something meaningful, together. — Mary Founder of Midnight Bliss Studio

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association: They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!

The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" 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!
