Weg vom Bildschirm und von vorgegebenen Lösungen – hinein in die unbegrenzte Kreativität der realen Welt! In diesem Kurs lernen die Kinder auch auf spielerische Weise, ihre Umwelt wahrzunehmen, zu schätzen und darzustellen. Ausserdem tasten sie sich an ihre eigenen Vorlieben und Begabungen heran und erleben die Begeisterung, eigenhändig Kunstwerke zu erschaffen. Unter professioneller Beratung und individueller Betreuung wird in kleinen Gruppen (ausser in den Schulferien) gearbeitet. **Einstieg und Probeunterricht:** ist jederzeit möglich. **Auskunft und Anmeldung:** marianas@gmx.ch \* 078 628 78 24 \* www.marianas.ch **Dienstags in Zürich**, GBMZ Sieglungslokal an der Hohlstrasse 197, von 17:00 bis 19:00 Uhr **Freitags in Illnau:** von 13:15 bis 15:15 Uhr und von 15:30 bis 17:30Uhr und **samstags in Illnau:** von 10:00 bis 12:00 Uhr **Kurskosten** (inkl.

**Hike description:** The hike starts before the train station Altmatt at 11:15 you need to be fit and have good hiking shoes. The concert begins at 7:00 p.m., so let’s aim to finish the hike 15 min before it starts to have a good place. The last kilometers are along the Zürich lake. If we are late, we can take a bus. If we are too early (and the water not too cold), we can swim, [von Hochmoor Rothenthurm nach Wädenswil | Wanderung | Komoot](https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2777682564?share_token=a22S3zJVK5xCstbx5AgAIK3KILf5ZfJSgUNylA2aYvgc9IYyWa&ref=wtd) **How to go with the train (from Zurich and I will meet you on the way):** [Das Online-Portal der SBB für Fahrplan, Zug und ÖV](https://www.sbb.ch/de?stops=Z%C3%BCrich+HB_I8503000~Rothenthurm,+Altmatt+Bahnhof_I8587856&day=2026-04-11&time=09_08&moment=dep&trip=3) **More information about the concert** the concert starts at 19:00 in the Ref. Kirche Wädenswil More information about this concert: [Konzerte | JSO Crescendo](https://jso-crescendo.ch/konzerte) It’s free, but donations are very welcome. **dedicated Whatsapp group** [WhatsApp-Gruppeneinladung](https://chat.whatsapp.com/HlsJBlVKqd1JSvHrAYZmJI) **If the hike is not long enough for you:** The hike start only at 11:15 because I suppose walking 7:30 is already long for a lot of people but, don't hesitate to tell in the whatsapp group if you what to make it longer by starting earlier. The only constraint is to be in Altmatt before 11:15 to join the main group. **Registration:** To sign up, please select "Yes" in the WhatsApp community survey for this activity: [🌄 Switzerland Discovery Crew (Preferred Ages 18-35)🌄 | WhatsApp-Kanal](https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaoercY1XquRrJm58k3V) If the event will happen in more than 30 days, I haven't added the survey in the channel yet. (Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group) If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group). Please sign up only when you are certain! You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.

The aim of this group is to get together and practice our German. Doesn’t matter if are a beginner or a native speaker. The goal is to speak and improve our German. Everyone is welcome! If the weather is good, look for us in the Biergarten. Pro Tip: Get there before 6:00 for happy hour pricing.

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. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
