A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

¿De verdad las mujeres "normales" ya no lloramos y facturamos? 💸 ¿Te has puesto a pensar en la escritura como privilegio? Si esto es así: ¿Dónde están las que escriben a pesar de no tener plata? 🤔 Con este club queremos hablar de algo que nos obsesiona: la literatura y el dinero.

Valor sin libro: 5€ Última fecha de sesión: por definir

## INSISTIR COMO MÉTODO ### Seminario de Performance Este seminario propone abrir las puertas al arte de la performance a partir de una pregunta esencial: ¿qué es la performance? Un espacio para explorar las posibilidades que habitan en el cuerpo, desarrollar un lenguaje propio y construir un territorio fértil para la creación de acciones performáticas. A través del trabajo práctico, se entrenará el estado del cuerpo como herramienta fundamental para accionar, decir, hacer y crear. *** ## ¿Qué trabajarás? * El cuerpo como herramienta performática * Estados de presencia y acción * Construcción de lenguaje propio * Exploración de la acción performática * Cruces entre disciplinas artísticas *** ## Metodología El seminario propone un enfoque práctico y experimental: * Ejercicios de activación corporal * Exploración guiada * Trabajo individual y colectivo * Acompañamiento durante el proceso creativo *** ## Enfoque Se abordará la performance desde una mirada transdisciplinar, donde los límites entre disciplinas se disuelven. Se integran herramientas de distintas artes como la danza, el teatro, el audiovisual y la poesía, entendiendo la práctica como un campo en expansión que no se limita, sino que se despliega. *** ## Dirigido a Performers, actores y actrices, bailarines/as, artistas visuales, escénicos/as, poetas, artistas audiovisuales y personas curiosas interesadas en la disciplina. **No es necesario tener experiencia previa.** *** ## 📅 Información práctica 📍 La Clandestina 🗓 9 de mayo de 2026 🕚 11:00H – 13:00H 🎭 Modalidad presencial 👥 Plazas limitadas *** ## ✉️ Inscripción Puedes inscribirte vía mail: **tallerinsistircomometodo@gmail.com** *** ## IMPARTE **Mariana Luz Ticheli** – Artista interdisciplinaria argentina que trabaja en performance e instalación desde el cuerpo y la materia viva, desarrollando proyectos en América Latina y Europa. Su práctica se sitúa en el cruce entre lo textil, la escritura, la fotografía, la performance y la danza, a partir del uso de materiales reciclados.

En 2026 fue becada por la residencia artística en La Clandestina. En 2025 impartió la masterclass *El cuerpo como archivo: Performance Art en Argentina* en el TEMPORAL Festival y participó en residencias y programas en Argentina, España, Italia y Uruguay.

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!

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “create a better world” by helping serve those in need. Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces. PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for BRUNCH from 10:30am to 12:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 10:20am and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking is available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to all of YOU for volunteering at this (and any of our previous) CMG Gives Back events! Should be another good/fun/meaningful time together, Dan

At Unity of Columbus, our Youth and Family Ministry nurtures the spiritual growth of children and families through love, joy, and practical spiritual teachings. Each Sunday, children explore timeless spiritual principles through stories, creative activities, music, and group sharing in a safe and welcoming environment. Our program encourages children to discover their own inner light, express kindness, and develop a personal connection with God. Together, we celebrate diversity, cultivate understanding, and inspire each child to live with purpose and compassion. Parents and families are invited to join in this uplifting journey of learning, laughter, and spiritual connection.

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do 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 10AM on Saturday mornings. 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: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. 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, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
