**WinAI Meet-up #5: Claude Cowork** What does it actually look like when AI handles your tasks while you do something else? This meet-up, we're looking at Claude Cowork. We will walk through how it works and what it's actually capable of, not a tutorial, just a real look at giving it a task and getting finished work back. Then we open it up. Questions, reactions, where this fits (or doesn't) in your own work. No laptop needed. Just come curious. You'll need a paid Claude account to use Cowork yourself, but if you don't have one, come anyway. See what's possible. It might be all the convincing you need. WinAI is a community for women in Luxembourg curious about AI, no matter where you're starting from. 📍 House of Startups, Luxembourg 🕖 Wed 24 June, 7:00 PM

⚠️EVENTBRITE REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED⚠️ https://www.eventbrite.com/e/luxembourgs-summer-in-three-acts-pilgrimage-harvest-and-wine-tickets-1987782782813?aff=meetup (Ignore the 10-attendees-limit – registrations are valid through Eventbrite) **Luxembourg’s Summer in Three Acts: Pilgrimage, Harvest, and Wine** This is the **third event** of the newly launched **Bourgmeisterin: Fireside Chats** bi-monthly series – a cultural storytelling format supported by the [Ministry of Family Affairs, Solidarity, Living Together, and Reception of Refugees ](https://mfsva.gouvernement.lu/en/.html "https://mfsva.gouvernement.lu/en/.html") and co-produced with[ ](https://www.radioara.org/)**[ARA City Radio](https://www.radioara.org/)** that runs from winter 2026 till summer 2027. The series builds on **[Bourgmeisterin](https://bourgmeisterin.com/about "https://bourgmeisterin.com/about")**, a long-running cultural storytelling project that has been exploring Luxembourg’s history, traditions, and identity for over 2.5 years. For those who missed the previous events: all events are vide-recorded as podcasts – here's the **[YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@Bourgmeisterin)[📺](https://youtu.be/m_DnkOWUn4w?feature=shared "https://youtu.be/m_DnkOWUn4w?feature=shared")** to bring you up to speed😉 **\-\-\-** This Fireside Chat explores three traditions that have helped Luxembourg mark the passing of summer for centuries: 🕺🏻🥁**Hopping Procession of Echternach** – why do thousands of people still hop through the streets of Echternach every year at the end of May? 🌾**Léiffrawëschdag** – why are bouquets made from herbs, grains, onions and carrots still blessed on August 15 in Greiveldange (and many other parts of the country for that matter)? 🍷**Fiederwäissen** – and why does a cloudy, unfinished wine inspire such anticipation every autumn? In a world that moves *faster than ever*, some traditions continue to bring people together – not because they are **efficient or practical,** but because they **help us mark time, create belonging, and make sense of change.** They show how people have historically navigated beginnings, endings, uncertainty, and belonging. Together, we'll explore: * Why communities create rituals in the first place * What it means to move, celebrate, and participate as a group * How traditions help people mark the passing of time * Why certain customs survive while others disappear * And what these rituals can still teach us about community, identity, and belonging today Because sometimes the most interesting question isn't why a tradition exists. **It's why people continue returning to it.** **💃🏻Who's leading the conversation** * The evening is hosted by **[Julia Khalyavko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/julia-khalyavko-54a6a420b/)**, the founder of **Bourgmeisterin**, a cultural storytelling project dedicated to exploring Luxembourg’s history, traditions, and contemporary identity through articles, podcasts, and public conversations. * The discussion is joined by **[Joëlla van Donkersgoed](https://www.linkedin.com/in/joella-van-donkersgoed)**, a Dutch heritage scholar and public historian who has lived in Luxembourg for the last five years. With a background in heritage studies, and art history, she focuses on how communities connect with their past in the present. She has led several public-facing history projects during her time at the **Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH)** at the **University of Luxembourg**, helping to make local history meaningful to wider audiences. **🤝🍷🍔Stay, talk, connect** The conversation doesn’t end when the fireside chat does. **Catering and drinks will be served after the discussion**, offering space to linger, exchange thoughts, and connect with fellow attendees in a relaxed, informal setting with up to 50 other attendees. **🎥🗣️NB! Recording, publication and spoken language** * Please note that the fireside chat will be **video-recorded**. Some **before- and after-moments** – as guests arrive and leave – may also be captured. The recording will be edited into a **video-podcast episode** and published on **YouTube** as part of the Bourgmeisterin: Fireside Chats series. * The event will be held in **English**. **A big thank you to our partners:** 🎥 **Super8**, our videography partner bringing the Fireside Chats to life on screen, 📍**Silversquare Liberté**, our venue partner hosting this Fireside Chat in Luxembourg City, 📲 **Itrepide Studio** our social media partner helping us shape and share the story **Follow Bourgmeisterin [everywhere](https://linktr.ee/bourgmeisterin)!** \-\-\- 🎟️ *Admission is free thanks to the generous support of the Ministry, which makes this event accessible to all.* 🚨 *The order form includes a short pre-event survey: as this is a Ministry-funded initiative, we are required to report on certain aspects of the event, including audience demographics.

**Self-Proclaimed Trivia Master, Paul, has all the questions AND answers**: All YOU have to do is bring the answers. Easy? Let's find out in the next rendition of Trivia Night. Let's warm up with the question that I like to ask to establish your knowledge of current events and IQ. Don't be shy. Shout this one out. What happened in April in America that had not happened since 1972 ? (warm up questions answer is posted at the bottom) Okay, not bad. I heard that. RSVP and form up into teams of up to 4 people when you show up. Compete for prizes so large we had to park them at the airport. Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place and Dead Last (that one's more of a remedial learning aid, but it will be fun. I promise). **On Freestyle night** \- just bring a bottle to share\. There is NO formal wine tasting like on other weeks\. Door charge is $10 \(cash or Venmo only please\)\. We may have some left over wines to clear out\! Glasses are provided\. Take Care\. See you there\. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. I am told that the Chase parking lot is safe after hours. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the EMPTY glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please do not make me hunt down your empty glass. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! (ps - empty the glasses into the sink, not the trash ... please) **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host* **Answer**: *That's right!* / We sent a rocketship with live astronauts to the moon for a quick lap around our only natural satellite. They didn't land. And they never got out of the capsule... for 10 days! Been there. Done that! (It's like they're replaying all the greatest hits from my childhood.)
