Welcome to the first Cocktail & Mocktail Crawl: Pre King's Day Weekend Edition! **🍊🍹** After a successful first Cafe Crawl and with a second one just around the corner, it's time to introduce something new. This is the Cocktail & Mocktail Crawl. We're kicking off the King's Day weekend the right way, with good drinks, great company, and a little orange. Wear or bring something orange to get into the King's Day spirit! We meet at the Neude and from there we visit two great bars with a delicious cocktail & mocktail menu. At both stops you'll be put in small groups of 4 to 6 people, so there's nice space to connect and have good conversations. ⚠️ Not sure if you can make it? Please free up your spot for someone else.

With warm & good weather on the horizon again, it's time again to get more picnic-y & outdoors-y 🌄 For this new season, let's revisit the old picnic gathering formula, but add into the night vibe & spicy dance theme (in this case tango, because other dances are oversaturated with events 😊) The premise: A picnic gathering starting from 19:00 & ending 23:00 sharp Since it's evening vibes, BYO food/drinks/games still applies but think time appropriate (don't go big on alcohol though!) Dancing aspect, music starts 20:00 & ends 23:00 sharp! Exact location in Griftpark: To be concluded, but assume close to where the meetup event location currently is set at Additional notes for the tango aspect: * you're very much welcome to join in & dance, even with no experience. I can show you a thing or two so you can get a taste & give it a go 😊 Depending on how many, either via a quick group tryout or I help you out individually * The tango aspect of the event is through the Utrecht Tango Cafe Milonga community (also organized by Constantinos) More info --> https://www.utrechtcafemilonga.com If you have any further questions, feel free to message the host Depending on the time & weather, and whether people are up for it, follow-up drinks can always follow later that day. To those interested, I hope to see you there! 😄

## **🌊 Marbling Workshop — Utrecht \(\[Booking via link\]\(se book via the link: https://artools\.nl/product/marbling\-workshop/\)\)** ## **Colour, water, and chance.** ## In this 2h hands-on marbling workshop, pigments float on water and are transferred onto paper — creating patterns that can’t be fully controlled or repeated. It’s a slow, tactile and slightly hypnotic process, where “happy accidents” are part of the experience. **What to expect:** – work directly with colour on water – explore movement and flow – create multiple one-of-a-kind prints – guided but open-ended session You don’t aim for one perfect piece — you create many, each shaped by timing and chance. Details: 🕒 Utrecht 2h **📍 Utrecht** **💶** €70 All materials included No experience needed **⚠️**RSVP on Meetup does not confirm your spot **👉**Please book via the link: https://artools.nl/product/marbling-workshop/
