Join us for a relaxed evening focused on hanging out and having a good time. We’re getting together to enjoy some ping pong, kicker, darts, and board games in a very casual setting. It doesn't matter if you’re a regular player or have never tried these games before; the night is really just about the social vibe, not how well anyone plays. You’re welcome to jump into a game whenever you like or just grab a seat and chat with others. It's a nice chance to meet some new people and enjoy the evening in a way that’s easygoing and friendly. See you!

Hey You!
On Friday I will teach you a few basic steps of shuffling. We will break down the steps, in your time, in your style.
We will explore your own flow of your body to different kinds of music and how we can use it in shuffling. I want to create a safe space for everyone who is just starting their shuffle journey or is already on the path.

Ich möchte für jede Person einen Safe-Space erschaffen, egal ob Du ganz Neu bist oder schon etwas gelernt hast.

The Moody Comedy Show is an interactive stand-up experience where the audience sets the tone! Just like in life, we all have different moods—happy, angry, excited, or maybe just “meh”—and comedians are no different. Each performer will embrace their mood on stage, delivering jokes that match their vibe, whether they’re feeling upbeat, frustrated, or existential. But that’s not all—you get to join in too! Audience members will write down their mood, and we’ll pull from a hat, riffing on your emotions in real-time. It’s a comedy show that evolves with the energy in the room, making every night unique. This is a pay-at-the-end show, but reservations are recommended. If you arrive without one, entry at the door is €12 (if seats are available). So book ahead, bring your mood—whatever it is—and let’s laugh about it!

We are excited to welcome our guest teacher, [Leticia Quirós](https://www.instagram.com/retaleh_/), again, who will be leading a new, incredible workshop! **Are you interested in exploring the body from a creative, symbolic and free perspective?** In this collage workshop, we will explore the theme of bodies as a space for expression, identity and transformation. Through cutting, layering and composition, we will create images that redefine our understanding of what a body is and what parts make it up. A workshop open to experimentation and play, so that the images have texture and a visual narrative. No previous experience is necessary. The only rule is that there are no rules. Come and be surprised by the papers, textures and creative power of your hands. **Details** * When: Friday, **24.04** from 6 PM to 8 PM. * Cost: €25 with **all materials included** (but feel free to bring magazines, flyers, newspapers or whatever material you would like to use during the workshop). * Location: Berlin Art Club, Friedrichshain. * Sign up: Please send us an e-mail to hola.berlinartclub@gmail.com. We will be waiting for you with something to drink and snacks to enjoy a relaxed evening together :) *Don’t forget to invite your friends!* Lu, Leti and the BAC.

We meet and sketch each other in Berlin. This is just an art gym that we also exercise our social skills. Afterwards usually we go for lunch as a group. **How Does It Work?** This event is simple, we meet and sketch each other doing portraits. Most of the participants use pencils or watercolors. Main aim is to socialize while we draw. There will be plenty of time to talk and get to know each other. We have to mention that this event is suitable for all levels. Many have started to draw in our event actually. **Structure** A. Warmup Phase: We pose to each other for 1 minute. B. Main Phase: We pose to each other for 10 minutes. C. Showcase Phase: We show some of the drawings we did to each other. **Who We Are** Creative Sessions is an art events group located in Berlin. **Is it Free?** The event is free of charge. It is advisable to get a drink though. This is a cafe, we need to have at least half of the people on each table with a drink. They accept only cash and most hot drinks cost from 2.50 to 3.50. **How to help or donate?** The event is provided for free but many people help this be a regular thing. We also need people to volunteer and help for minor tasks like the serving of the drinks or cleaning up. Just send us a message.

This group is for everyone who is interested in drawing portraits! For me, drawing has been a wonderful way to gain a new perspective on the world and the people within it. Whether you are just starting out or have been drawing for ages — all levels are welcome :) How it works: 1\. We meet at The Castle pub in Mitte and do short sittings of 15 minutes for each other\. The first sitting is divided into 3 warm\-up sketches\, 5 minutes each\. 2\. Before we start\, everybody writes their name on a blank card \(provided by the organizer\); these cards are then used to randomly pick the model every 15 minutes\. 3\. Usually we do 8 sittings\, with a 15\-minute break in the middle \(so after 4 sittings\, or 1 hour\)\. -> The participation is free, but it is expected that everybody orders something from the bar to support the lovely location. Get out your pencils and let's start! Please bring your own art supplies!
