We play short and long-form improv comedy, which includes theater-style scenes, guessing, and group games. **Topics:** * Timing * Location * Participation (Attendees list) * RSVP rules * Improv session format * Who is it for? (Participation requirement) *** * **Timing** Being on time will help you and everyone. **18h15** \- Doors open *Please take this time to order your drinks/food and settle in.* **18h30** \- Start of the session **Are you late?** Please inform the event host, or comment on the event page. If you arrive late and the session is already in progress, please wait on the side till the game/scene is finished.

It's the room with a curtain at the door. * **Participation (Attendee list)** The session is limited to **12 attendees**. This is to ensure that the session is manageable and everybody gets enough chances to participate. Therefore, only the people on the "attendee list" are allowed to be present at the session and participate. **Waiting list**: People on the waiting list should keep an eye on the updates, in case someone from the attendees' list drops and you get their spot. **Just want to observe?** Usually, we don't allow any extra audience during these sessions. We invite you to come to any of our shows. But if for some reason you are only interested in observing and not participating, please contact the event host on meetup, or talk with them personally at the session and explain your reasons. Admission for this is not guaranteed. *People on the attendee list are expected to take part.* * **RSVP Rules** * Please update your RSVP status in a timely manner, if you can't make it to the session. This applies to people on the **attendee list AND waiting list.** * If you are on the waiting list, and already know that you won't be able to join in case someone from the main list drops, please update your RSVP to "not going". This will give the chance to the next person on the waiting list. * Emergencies aside, please update your rsvp status on time. Canceling last minute or just 1 hour before isn't helpful. * If we see a pattern from someone not showing up after confirming, or last-minute cancellations, we reserve the right to prohibit access to the sessions. * Please write a comment if you cancel and your spot becomes available. With this others will get an extra notification. **Improv Session Format** The session is held in English. The session is divided into three sections: Warm up, Scene games, and Cool down. **Warmup:** Quick group games are played to break the ice and get the creative juices flowing. **Scenes:** Then we move on to scene games. These are mostly from short-form improv, which can include different games with various gimmicks, like story building, character work, guessing, etc **Cool down:** One or two short group games to end the session. The rules are explained by the moderator before each game. There is no obligation to take part in games that you are not comfortable with. There can be feedback after a game is played. This is so that we learn from each other and gain skills and insights. **Tip**: If you are new, pay attention to the regular players when they are performing and notice small details, like how a stage is cleared before a scene, how to enter a scene, and how to collaborate with each other. * **Who is it for?** Anyone who is interested in improv! We accept all levels, beginners, and advanced participants This is a great place to start if you are new to improv. The basics will be explained. We only require the "Yes, and...!" spirit! If you are an advanced player and have ideas and games to share and work on, please do let us know. We look forward to welcoming you and doing improv!

**Cinema Galerie : Angel's Egg** 02/02 @ 18h45 The film by Mamoru Oshii, director of the cult animation "Ghost in the Shell" and the now famous Polish-Japanese "Avalon" with Małgorzata Foremniak, is a philosophical and ambitious experiment full of intelligent symbolism, using biblical motifs and dreamlike aesthetics. In interviews over the course of four decades, Oshii has repeatedly explained the meaning of individual scenes, the ending, and his fascination with hope as something that may be hidden in a mystical egg. Oshii created Angel's Egg in collaboration with visual artist Yoshitaka Amano, one of the leading creators of anime. The film premiered in 1985, and critics immediately recognized it as a sophisticated, ambitious work of art, although it took four decades for Angel's Egg to receive the worldwide recognition it deserved. This is reflected in this year's premiere of a digitally restored version of Angel's Egg at the Cannes Film Festival. [Cinema Galerie](https://galeries.be/fr/expat-cinema-angels-egg/) [The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw](https://artmuseum.pl/en/events/angels-egg-1?term=019bc63f-7168-7104-8504-bc285758fed5) **For Dreamers, Coffee shots, Orezza, eau de Saint-Georges !**

Would you like to be ready for carnival with a mask that doesn't go unnoticed? This workshop is for you! The Carnival of Venice is one of the most known in the world, famous for its elaborate costumes and masks. This workshop will give you the first rudiments to craft your own mask. At the beginning there will be a presentation about the history and the design of the Venetian masks, then we will craft the mold of your mask starting with a negative of clay to model by hand, finally the positive will be made by plaster. At this point the mold will require more than one day to dry, but there will be a demonstration of the other steps like how to apply the papier-mâché. Things to bring: * 1.5 kg of modelling clay (for a small mask that covers only the eyes and the nose) - for example, but not limited to: https://www.lucascreativ.be/nl/product/2100137/Luchtdrogende-klei-15kg-wit-Hardpast/152342 * 1 kg of plaster powder (for a small mask that covers only the eyes and the nose) - for example but not limited to: https://www.lucascreativ.be/nl/product/2100191/Snelplaaster * paper and pencil to sketch the mask * one big bowl where to prepare the plaster. * putty knife or whatever to handle the plaster * jug or bottle * scissors * tools to model clay (not compulsory but recommended) * rigid board where to work the clay and apply the plaster * plastic bag to bring eventual trash with you The bowl that you will use to prepare the plaster by mixing the powder with water cannot be cleaned at IHL. Eventually, you can buy already prepared plaster ready to apply from a hardware store, and then you don't need to bring a bottle or a jug. You can buy the modelling clay and the plaster from a fine art store like Lucas. credits of the cover page: [Frank Kovalchek](https://antispam.leuven.be/fmlurlsvc/?fewReq=:B:JVMxOj47MS19NjklOy1ibzY7OjE7Oi14Ymxlan9+eW42bTJoOzM/PmhvPzo7PThtbm5uPWg4aTszO2ltMj8/O287ajo6PToyOS1/Njo8PTM4OTI6Pz4temJvNj07T0JdZD9KOzk8OjM/Jj07T0JdZD9IOzk8OjM/LXloe382SmVlaiVfeWJ7e0tnbn59bmUlaW4taDY5Py1jb2c2Ow==&url=https%3a%2f%2fwww.flickr.com%2fphotos%2f72213316%40N00 "https://antispam.leuven.be/fmlurlsvc/?fewReq=:B:JVMxOj47MS19NjklOy1ibzY7OjE7Oi14Ymxlan9+eW42bTJoOzM/PmhvPzo7PThtbm5uPWg4aTszO2ltMj8/O287ajo6PToyOS1/Njo8PTM4OTI6Pz4temJvNj07T0JdZD9KOzk8OjM/Jj07T0JdZD9IOzk8OjM/LXloe382SmVlaiVfeWJ7e0tnbn59bmUlaW4taDY5Py1jb2c2Ow==&url=https%3a%2f%2fwww.flickr.com%2fphotos%2f72213316%40N00").

. Find us on Facebook to see what's actually happening. Bring your own knitting or crochet project and join other people who enjoy yarn crafts for a relaxing couple of hours on Saturday afternoons. The 1st Saturday of the month is not an in-person meet-up, but on zoom. All people and all levels welcome, including beginners, whom we are happy to help get started (although we don't run classes). No charge. All you need is some yarn and a crochet hook or a pair of knitting needles. We are very friendly so don't be shy. The venue may change from time to time so please check back on the day before the event to be sure you have it right. We mostly speak English, but people in the group are very international and speak many languages. Looking forward to seeing you.

The topic for February is "Transitions" 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!

Let’s meet and discuss whatever comes to mind about one of Tennesse Williams’ most famous plays.

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. **SCHEDULE:** 6:45ish - Quick introductions 7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 8:00 - The End **OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
