D is for... Dr Johnson's House LATE: 'Johnson Crime & Punishment' talk
**Join us at Dr Johnson's House for an evening talk: 'Johnson, Crime and Punishment, in Four Cases'. Tickets include a welcome drink and chance to view Dr Johnson's House.**
Join us for a fascinating exploration of Samuel Johnson's entanglements with ideas of criminality and causality. Four experts offer their insights into ways in which Johnson wrestled with wrongdoing, his own, as well as those of other people, and tried to stake out the terms of a shift in the way society addressed and corrected them.
Crime was rife in Georgian London, but so too was punishment. In the eighteenth century, you could be hanged for more than 350 offences, including wounding a hawk, fraternizing with gypsies, and defacing some, (but not all) of London's bridges. People were sent to prison for being in debt as was the case with the poet Richard Savage; and street walkers were sent to Bridewells for 'correction', while those who paid them for their services went scot free.
Samuel Johnson had a boundless compassion for people in desperate situations, and at the same time, an unwavering sense of Justice. All his life, he vied with the difficulty of reconciling these two pillars of his character, and of good society itself. How successful he was, and how far he influenced the shape of the century that followed, will comprise some of the questions that these series of short talks will raise.

FULL - Drink & Do Night | Cyanotype Workshop
**Back by popular demand, on Friday 27th March weāre excited to be hosting our latest Drink & Do Night!**
But for this one - instead of our usual paint and pottery, weāll be teaming up with Something Good Workshops for a **Mixed Media Cyanotype Workshop,** exclusively for our community šØ
If youāve never tried cyanotype before, itās a famous print making technique that creates distinctive deep blue artworks that you may have seen in galleries or design markets.
The evening will start with a relaxed introduction where the workshop team will walk us through the process and materials.
Youāll then design your own A6 artwork using a mix of bold materials like plants, tape, drawings and lettering, layering everything onto acetate to build your composition **šæ**
Once you're happy with your design, they'll then place your image onto light-sensitive paper and expose it using specialist lighting, to reveal your finished cyanotype artwork.
It should be a fun new experience and throughout the evening - there will be a bar open, so you can grab drinks and build some new connections - as you create your piece.
Best of all, whilst art workshops like this can often cost Ā£40+, this **whole evening of creative fun is just Ā£13.25pp š**
But as always - spots are limited and so do nab your spot, if you're keen to join us for this!

Dinner @ Due Amici
Someone told me about Due Amici and I hear it has some of the finest Italian food in town mangia bene, vivi felice! (eat well, live happy). Letās enjoy the great food, the conversations, and most importantly the amazing company we keep, guys.
Brunchapalooza
Get ready for a backyard brunch that feels like summer, smells like heaven, and sounds like a whole vibe.
Weāre turning the backyard into the ultimate brunch playground with music flowing, drinks pouring, and plenty of food. This is the laugh loud, grab seconds, refill your cup kind of brunch.
On the menu, weāre going all in. Fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, juicy sausage, golden pancakes and waffles hot off the griddle. Fresh bakes like warm cinnamon rolls and sweet coffee cakes that hit just right. And thatās just the start.
Weāll have cocktails mixed and ready, juices chilled, sodas on ice, and plenty more to keep the energy up. Think mimosas, good conversation, music in the background, and that perfect mix of sunshine and shade.
Itās about warm vibes, real connections, and food that makes you close your eyes on the first bite.
Pull up hungry, bring your best stories, and get ready for a brunch that turns into a whole experience.

Freestyle + Karaoke ! ! ! (bring wine)
**Karaoke Night**: Bring your glee club friends. Enjoy a flashback to your choir days. No chorus line. It's all you baby. Sing. Shout. Scream. Lip sync if you need to. But do show up and do have a good time.
**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**: ā¦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!
**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, itās still worth mentioning. We donāt 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 donāt 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 havenāt 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**
