This beautiful Mass in the ancient language of the church brings us into a deeper awareness of the Lord's sacrifice of love for us. The Lassus Scholars choir radiates this in a way that only the sung word can. At this pivotal time of the liturgical year and for our country, let us partake strongly as we experience a truly tangible appreciation of what our true Lord has done for us, full in the knowledge that what appeared to be a defeat was really the prelude to his resurrection and ultimate victory. There will be an opportunity afterwards to spend time with people who share an interest in faith as we will go for coffee in the Camden Court Hotel.

Hi all, join us for our next meetup where we'll be heading back to the bar for another relaxed, idea-filled session - part listening party, part creative spark generator. We’ll continue sharing songs, bands, sounds, and textures we love to help shape our collective dream pop / synth wave direction 🎶 As well as that, anyone that has any original material of their own is encouraged to bring it along - that could be a chord progression, a synth patch, a guitar riff, a bass groove, or even a vocal melody - something simple that captures your vibe. No pressure, no perfection needed - just a starting point. The goal is to build from these fragments, inspire each other, and slowly piece together our own signature sound 🔊 We'll also need lyrics for any tunes we come up with so if anyone has any they'd like to use feel free to bring them, or indeed write some on the way 😎 Expect good chats, creative energy, and plenty of shimmering, reverb-soaked inspiration.

Through encounters with Finnish musicians and tango lovers, the film explores how this deeply Argentine music found a second home in the far north. What begins as a humorous cultural question becomes a touching journey about identity, nostalgia, and the universal language of tango. An evening of cinema, music, and culture — open to everyone [https://youtu.be/qAUzo-RRc0g?si=u7oDyPQV-sqNdO27](https://youtu.be/qAUzo-RRc0g?si=u7oDyPQV-sqNdO27&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExQTNiZDd6NlhpbnE4bnFQaXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR7YMVuVTdITOsouYtwP_pvVMTguYELf4G6ceB9OeFCjPnV-MLiQBfGSuNpKCQ_aem_B5bw44KZlHjQQ3tkCaukJg) \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- **This event is part of the International Open Roles Tango Festival (IOR Tango Festival) – 1st Edition Ireland -** Click here for the full programme & registration [https://forms.gle/2SF2cEn6LhRSzBR37](https://forms.gle/2SF2cEn6LhRSzBR37) Facebook event [https://www.facebook.com/events/26062600049998910?active_tab=about](https://www.facebook.com/events/26062600049998910?active_tab=about) Web Page [https://openrolestangofestival.my.canva.site/](https://openrolestangofestival.my.canva.site/) Info and bookings : Lucia +353 89 406 6198 Contact [WhatsApp link](https://wa.me/353894066198) You can select the activities that fit your schedule and interests. **NOTE:** Any combination of events qualifies for a discounted rate. **Get in touch with to receive your personalised price**

Dear fellow Gaeilgeoiri, Cead mile failte / a warm welcome to this group of Irish language lovers and enthusiasts. Hope you will enjoy everything it has to offer and feel free to suggest new events, and, why not step in as an event organizer? What this group is not: - A group limited to those with perfect proficiency in the language, where any single word of English is banned, and where you will get corrected for every séimhiú that, God forbid, you might be forgetting What this group is: - A forum of Gaeilge enthusiasts willing to share their interest and love of the language. We all started learning a language, including our own, from scratch at some point in our lives. Absolute beginners are welcome and should not feel intimidated. Near perfect and native Irish speakers are also welcome to share their vast knowledge of the language. Hopefully this will create a thriving community of lovers of the language at any level. Beir bua Alex (organizer)

**Caller: Kim Thompson** **Band: Full Moon Country Dance Orchestra** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** 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.

I hope you'll join me at [Carfagna's](https://carfagnas.com/) AMAZING complex on Gemini/Polaris. *Live, local acoustic music during dinner.* **Come by early for happy hour til 6pm.** Or, join us for dinner; show time is 6-9PM, Thursday. Reservation at 6pm for 12 under Michele Z (overflow can linger near the bar). Each Thursday they host live music in their beautiful upscale bar at **Carfagna's Ristorante**; but you need to check out everything this place has to offer Italian under one roof!!

The topic for April is "Water" 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!

A fun way to compare wines from two different countries at a time. House Wine is squaring off two countries' wines against each other each Thursday in March. March 12, March 19, March 26, and the Finals April 2nd. Meet and Greet format....show up after 7pm, pay your $15 at the cash register, get your wine glass, and enjoy. I will get a table reserved for the group. Remember, you may bring in your own food or takeout. Attendance is your agreement to the Group's Waiver of Liability terms. See our Group homepage for details. Parking is tough at House Wine; there is a municipal lot one-half block north of the shop and sometimes parking at the lot behind Jet Pizza, accessed by the lane between the east House Wine parking lot and the residence to the east.
