Inspired by the [Cinema Clubs and magazines](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cahiers_du_Cin%C3%A9ma) of the 1950s in France that launched what we now know as the "film critic", this event will follow a similar structure. We'll gather and watch a film at Cines Renoir Floridablanca - and follow it up with drinks, tea, and conversation about what we just saw nearby. We'll be watching the the recent release of "Zootopia 2", the sequel to the first award-winning film Zootopia (a personal favorite of mine). It's fun, it's the holidays, so booyah! [Tickets can be purchased here (always better to do ahead of time](https://moobycinemas-glorias.admit-one.eu/seats/113266/)[)](https://moobycinemas-arenas.admit-one.eu/seats/180323/), and we'll meet about 15 minutes or so before the movie at the theatre. Below is the approx. schedule! 8:15pm - We'll meet at the theatre and work on finding seats together (if able) 8:30pm - Movie starts! \~10:20pm - Movie ends 10:25pm - Grab a drink nearby at [4 Latas Poblenou](https://maps.app.goo.gl/KPH3zyewLAaAUJ4X7) to chat, talk about the film, and possibly the meaning of life if we get there. 10:45pm - See where the night goes :) Please RSVP and send a message so I can add you to the Whatsapp group for coordination on locations.

**Would you like to start the year slowly, creatively, and in good company?** **Come celebrate the New Year with us 🎉✏️** To kick off 2026, we’re hosting a **special edition** of our drawing meetup — a cozy, community-focused gathering to connect, play, and create together. This time, we’ll do things a little differently. Instead of individual sketching, we’ll be working **together on a massive roll of paper**, creating one big collaborative mural. We’ll also play some light, art-related games, chat, laugh, and enjoy a relaxed moment to start the year surrounded by fellow creatives. No pressure, no expectations — just showing up as you are. **🍽️ This is a potluck-style free event: we'd be grateful if you bring some food to share** 🥤 Bring your own drinks 🎨 Bring your own art supplies (anything you like to draw with!) As always, this isn’t a lesson — beginners and experienced artists are equally welcome. You’re encouraged to chat, collaborate, and help each other along the way. **USEFUL INFO & TIPS** 📍 We meet on the first floor of The Central House Gràcia *(Carrer de Còrsega, 302, 08008 Barcelona)* 👋 Your host, Aina, speaks English, French, Catalan, and Spanish.

**Ens trobarem a les onze del matí (11:00 h), a la boca de metro de l’estació BARCELONETA (L-4 groga).** Un cop apuntats, si finalment, pel motiu que sigui, no podeu venir, agrairem que us doneu de baixa. Durant el recorregut, no hi ha garanties de que es contestin les trucades, ni tampoc els missatges, estarem massa enfeinats fent fotos. Durant el recorregut, cadascú de nosaltres serà responsable de no perdre el grup, no obstant, si algú es perd, ens podrem retrobar més tard al lloc on haurem quedat prèviament. QUE FAREM: Abans de res aclarir que això no és una classe, ni un curs, ni tampoc un taller de fotografia. Això és una trobada de gent interessada en la fotografia urbana, de carrer, una trobada de gent interessada en les ciutats, en les persones que hi viuen i en les activitats que s’hi fan. Passejarem pels carrers de la ciutat a la recerca de les coses que ens puguin agradar, interessar, sorprendre, anirem a la recerca de la bellesa. Al mateix temps, la trobada també ens permetrà conèixer gent amb la mateixa afició que nosaltres i podrem intercanviar idees, impressions i coneixements. No cal portar un gran equip, n’hi haurà prou amb una càmera petita que ens permeti passar desapercebuts i no ser gaire invasius. Cadascú podrà fer servir la tècnica fotogràfica que més li convingui en cada moment. Tothom és benvingut, gent de totes les edats, des de principiants fins a experts. És gratuït, només es demana una mica d’entusiasme. Ens ho passarem molt bé! BENVINGUTS!

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled!

Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Two Dollar Radio HQ! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write!

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.

Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you.
