Small Joys, Long Visual Stories â A Moving Panorama Workshop
**Small Joys, Long Visual Stories â A Moving Panorama Workshop**
On the United Nations International Day of Happiness, the Brussels Creativity Lab invites you to slow down and take a closer look at joy.
In this workshop weâll explore happiness not as a grand finale, but as something quietly unfolding over time. Together, weâll work with the moving panorama â an early storytelling art form and ancestor of cinema â to tell stories that stretch small moments into long visual journeys.
A moving panorama is a hand-cranked storytelling device: a long illustrated scroll wound onto two spools and viewed through a small window as it slowly unrolls. In this workshop, youâll be guided to create a short story, visualise it on a long piece of paper, and construct a simple cardboard viewing box to bring it to life.
Our focus will be on small joys, long stories: Stories built from tiny pleasures: a shared laugh, light through a window, a familiar route through the city. By drawing these moments out across the length of the scroll, the panorama becomes a way to slow happiness down so it can be noticed.
Expect a hands-on, playful session where experimentation is encouraged and artistic skill is not a prerequisite. Youâll meet others, exchange ideas, and discover how storytelling, rhythm, and movement can reveal joy hiding in plain sight.
Come curious, leave with a story â and maybe a new way of noticing happiness as it gently unfolds.
All materials will be provided.
**Ticket: âŹ5 in cash at the door.** Ticket covers cost of materials and some snacks.
**To help our lovely hosts at Unity Bookshop continue supporting community events like this, a small donation on the day would be greatly appreciated.**

Bozar - Beauty and Ugliness in the Renaissance
## Beauty and Ugliness in the Renaissance
Beauty and ugliness have always fascinated people, yet their meanings shift over time. *Bellezza e Bruttezza* explores how artists from Italy and Northern Europe in the 15th and 16th centuries depicted these extremes, from refined ideals to deliberate grotesques. A rare opportunity to see extraordinary works, some appearing in Belgium for the first and only time.
The exhibition traces how the standards of beauty and ugliness evolved from the last quarter of the 15th century to the end of the 16th centuryâkey transitional periodsâby juxtaposing in a rich and compelling confrontation the ways in which these two subjects were interpreted by the greatest Italian artists and their counterparts from Northern Europe. Beauty became an increasingly important social concern at this time, as shown by the rising number of 16th-century publications offering ârecipes for looking beautifulâ and advice on cosmetics and care. Meanwhile, ugliness also grew in prominence in art, appearing in a widening range of forms throughout the same period.
Discover remarkable works by renowned artists such as **Botticelli**, **Titian**, **Tintoretto**, **Leonardo da Vinciâââââââ, Michelangelo,** **Cranach the Elder**, **Massys**, and many others.
After the event: drinks for those who want to keep the conversation going đ·âš

FREE meetup. Register HERE đïž- https://www.eventbrite.com/e/unlocking-retirement-capital-flips-wholesales-private-money-strategies-tickets-1983411263481?aff=cicmeetupapp
**Unlocking Retirement Capital: Flips, Wholesales & Private Money Strategies in Self-Directed Accounts**
**Featuring Guest Speaker:** Amanda Holbrook (Specialized Trust Company)
**Hosted by:** Columbus Investors Club
### **Event Description**
Most people think retirement accounts are passive.
That theyâre âfor later.âThat you canât touch them. That real estate and retirement money donât mix.
Theyâre wrong.
This meetup is about how investors use **Self-Directed IRAs and Solo 401(k)s** to put retirement capital to workâŠ**buying real estate, funding deals, and even raising private money** (the right way).
### **Featured Guest Speaker: Amanda Holbrook**
Weâre excited to welcome **Amanda Holbrook of Specialized Trust Company** to break this down clearly and practicallyâŠso you understand whatâs allowed, how it works, and what to avoid.
### **What Youâll Learn**
Amanda will walk through:
**Flip inside a Self-Directed IRA or Solo-401(k)**
* How to structure the deal correctly
* How expenses must be handled
* When UBIT may apply
**Wholesale within a retirement account**
* How assignments work
* What type of income it creates
**Use OPM (Other Peopleâs Money) to scale**
* How investors raise private money from Self-Directed IRAs
* How to structure notes properly
* How to fund deals inside **and** outside your own retirement account
### **The Core Idea**
There is a lot of capital sitting in retirement accounts.
This session shows you how real estate investors unlock it **without guessing, winging it, or accidentally creating a compliance mess.**
### **Who This Event Is For**
* Investors flipping or wholesaling who want to understand self-directed rules
* Anyone raising private money (or wanting more capital sources)
* People with retirement funds who want them working harder than stocks/mutual funds
### **Event Details**
**Location:** Ohio Brewing Company â 421 E 2nd Ave, Columbus, OH 43201
**Date & Time:** Thursday, March 26th, 6â8 PM *(Doors open at 5:30)*
