Have you always wanted to try watercolor painting but didn’t know where to begin? Watercolor Day is a hands-on workshop designed to introduce you to the fundamentals of watercolor in a clear, practical, and approachable way. Through a series of guided exercises, you’ll learn how watercolor behaves and how to use its qualities to create expressive paintings. We’ll begin with simple studies focused on water control, tone, color mixing, and washes. Once you’ve become familiar with the medium, you’ll practice essential watercolor techniques such as wet-on-wet painting, glazing, layering, and creating textures. In the second part of the workshop, you’ll apply these skills to create a finished watercolor painting. ### What you’ll learn * The basic principles of watercolor * How to control water and pigment * Color mixing and tonal values * Different types of washes * Wet-on-wet and wet-on-dry techniques * Glazing and layering * Texture and special effects * How to build a painting from light to dark ### What’s included * All materials and professional watercolor supplies * A practical watercolor workbook designed specifically for this course * A finished watercolor artwork to take home The workbook contains key concepts, exercises, techniques, and practice recommendations, helping you continue painting independently after the workshop. ### Workshop Language The workshop will be taught in English. German and Russian explanations can be provided whenever necessary. ### Who is this workshop for? * Complete beginners * Anyone curious about watercolor * Artists working in other media who want to explore watercolor * Creative people looking for a relaxed and practical learning experience No previous experience is necessary. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a solid understanding of watercolor fundamentals, your own completed artwork, and a workbook to support your future practice. **About the Instructor** Jenny Andreeva is a Berlin-based watercolor artist and educator. She is a member of the German Watercolour Society and has exhibited internationally, including at the Fabriano Watercolour Festival in Italy.

1 EURO DONATION FEE PER PERSON IS REQUIRED (on site, in cash), to pay back the Meetup subscription fees and support my Events. READ THE DESCRIPTION WITH THE INFO (IMPORTANT). We take a walk in Berlin to meet new people or people we already know 😁 It's a way to spend a few hours together on a Sunday afternoon. **How it works?** The concept is very simple: * We meet at Alexanderplatz Station at 14,00 o'clock (we use the Whatsapp Chat to find each other: I will post there my exact location in the station) * I wait for people for 10 minutes, till 14,10, then we start to walk direction West, crossing Museum Island and Mitte 🏛️🏘️ * We reach Tiergarten and we will cross the entire park, seeing some of its interesting points🌲🌳☘️ * We finally reach Café am Neuen See: https://maps.app.goo.gl/kSui84icxyU6hQG56 to sit down together to take something to drink or eat 🥐☕🍪 * The total length of the walk is about 8kms I consider that the event will last in overall around 4 hours (2 hours of walk and 2 hours at Café am Neuen See), but people are free to stay together longer, if they want 🙂 What I provide is leading the walk and the people at Café am Neuen See, but I do not force anyone to stay shorter or longer. I do not provide a "personal support" for people who arrive after 14,10 (do not write to me expecting "private support"). You are responsible to check for the weather and decide if come or not. Thanks for understanding. If you have to contact me, make it via Whatsapp, not here on Meetup. WHATSAPP GROUP 💬 to find each other (join it, we use this group to find and synchronize us) [https://docs.google.com/document/d/157uLVXObKt1a4NqqvPa09NJW-050YBwHLW-7DbOD8R8/](https://docs.google.com/document/d/157uLVXObKt1a4NqqvPa09NJW-050YBwHLW-7DbOD8R8/)

Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease. This walk is a simple reset. We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment. No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening. If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk. ✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):** * A short arrival and orientation * A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation) * One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress * Optional reflection in pairs or small groups * A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life 🚶**Who this is for:** * Professionals, creatives, and people in transition. * People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance. * Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical. * Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation. 🔔 **Practical notes:** * Duration: 60-90 minutes * Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing * No prior experience needed * Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused 🧭 **Facilitator:** My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction. 🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?** Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense. Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world. The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it. 🌿 **Possible effects:** A calmer nervous system. Clearer attention. A felt sense of being more present in your body. Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions. A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city. **Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**

We invite you to join our weekly Evenings of Meditation, to gently meet yourself, dissolve stress and live life from beautiful inner states, like calm, joy and connection. These gatherings are not just about meditating on your own, but a step inward we take together. Each time we’ll look into a particular topic in the light of timeless wisdom, reflect on it in a guided meditation, do powerful Oneness practices for greater wellbeing, and experience Deeksha - which helps to speed up your inner growth. **This week's topic: Three dimensions of a beautiful state** What does it mean to live life from beautiful inner states? Let’s explore 3 fundamental dimensions of a beautiful state, so that they strengthen more in us and life becomes a joy to live.

Or just get some work done :) ———— We'll be at Espresso House this time. After the structured part ends, you're welcome to stay longer.

**1 week of an exclusive, small-group ocean expedition for freedivers, photographers, and wildlife enthusiasts! If you love the ocean, this trip is for you.** Each year, the waters off South Africa’s Wild Coast transform into one of the planet’s most dramatic natural events. Billions of sardines migrate along the Wild Coast, making it one of the largest animal migrations on the planet. It attracts a diverse range of predators, from dolphins and sharks to whales and seabirds - all converging in a feeding spectacle few ever witness up close. The Sardine Run remains one of the most spectacular events on earth. Each day, ocean conditions, currents, and predator behavior determine what you’ll encounter. You’ll spend your days following the pulse of the sea - sometimes waiting, sometimes immersed in pure chaos and raw nature beauty. We partner with a trusted local dive operator with extensive experience running ocean expeditions along the Wild Coast. Their skilled skippers, dive crews, and wildlife spotters bring a deep understanding of the area’s conditions and marine life, ensuring safety, precision, and ethical wildlife encounters. 📅 Week 1: 5-12 July 2026, Week 2: 13-20 July 2026 📍Wild Coast, South Africa 👥 Max 7 guests · small group only 🤿 Open to freedivers, snorkelers & ocean enthusiasts WHAT'S INCLUDED ✅ 6 full days on the water ✅ 7 nights at Eco Swell Lodge (private en-suite chalet, ocean views) ✅ All meals · freediving gear · expert local crew ✅ Professional marine photography + 1 trip video ✅ Transport to/from Mthatha Airport ✅ Massage included 🙌 We will freedive & snorkel.

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data** How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice. Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look. In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it. **About Our Speaker:** [Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.

You can sleep in on the Semiquincentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday. But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to. Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
