Historic Buildings

**Visit one of the Marais's most historical mansions** Hotel de Beauvais holds its name from **Catherine de Beauvais**, lady in waiting to the Queen in the 1640's. Nicknamed "One-eye Cathy", she happened to give young **Louis XIV**, his first lessons in bed. The mansion is a sign of the king's gratitude. As a Bavarian Embassy, the building also saw young **Mozart** stay there when he came to Paris at the end of the 18th century, before one of Paris' most notorious gambling place settled there. After the French Revolution, like many Marais mansions, the **Hotel de Beauvais** was stripped from its outstanding decors and parted into numerous flats and small factories. The yard of honor has now been restored and shows a **sumptuous decor** as well as an original and rare layout, due to the lack of space. The visit will also highlight the 13th century **Gothic vaulted cellars** and a **superb elliptic staircase** at the back of the courtyard. The building, has retained **the beautiful staircase of honor** from the 17th century, used by so many famous guests. It now takes people and visitors to the modern rooms of the **City of Paris administrative court of appeal**. Walk in English 25€/person. Includes entry ticket and right of speech.

Pendant des décennies, les marteaux et les scies ont vibré dans des ateliers sur cour qui fleuraient bon le bois frais. Les fabriques de meubles dues à un savoir-faire réputé, avaient envahi tout le faubourg Saint-Antoine. Au moment de la construction de l'opéra Bastille, le sud du 11e, au prix d'une transformation radicale, devint le quartier à la mode, les artisans cédant peu a peu la place aux cafés et boutiques branchés. Dans tout l'arrondissement, des passages dévoilent un Paris secret et encore protégé. Au milieu d'une suite de cours discrètes, une rencontre est prévue avec un des derniers ébénistes du quartier. 15€/pers. Ce prix englobe la participation à la visite d'atelier. RDV à la sortie du métro Breguet-Sabin, en face du No 9 Bd Richard Lenoir Visite en français et anglais si nécessaire ! For years, wood artisans have thrived around the Faubourg Saint Antoine, outside of Bastille square. This tradition, along with furniture stores was still overwhelming until the end of the last century. Slowly, the workshops and manufactories give way to private lofts, bars and startups. Behind the opera, clubs and restaurants swarm, vibrant outposts of one of Paris's favorite night district. Despite the rents rise year after year, and most of the wood related shops have closed down or moved away, the neighborhood is full of beautiful and little known back alleyways and leafy private yards, where the sound of wood work can still be heard. In one of them, a meeting is planned with one of the last wood craftsmen in his amazing workshop. https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/6/6/1/600_452674401.jpeg

Petite balade qui nous emmènera dans 3 galeries d'art, d'abord sur l'Île Saint Louis puis pas très loin. Des œuvres tellement différentes les unes des autres que vous pouvez être sûrs d'aimer au moins une des expos. Probablement plusieurs.

Oui, mais quand même 3 expos TRÈS différentes. 2 de ces galeries organiseront un vernissage ce soir-là et nous offriront donc le verre de l'amitié et une chance de rencontrer les artistes. Rdv à la sortie du métro Sully Morland et on terminera pas loin de Rambuteau. Prix libre. Suggéré : 10€.

La Cité Internationale Universitaire a été créée, après la première guerre mondiale, pour inviter les citoyens (étudiants et enseignants) du monde entier à se rencontrer, dans le but de renforcer la paix dans le monde. Ça n'a pas empêché la deuxième guerre mondiale. Mais la Cité existe encore et a encore une magnifique valeur symbolique. Et sa beauté n'est pas que symbolique. On y trouve de très beaux bâtiments dans divers styles architecturaux. On va même entrer dans certains de ces bâtiments ! Si vous avez encore un peu d'énergie après avoir découvert la Cité, on ira découvrir quelques uns des autres secrets pas loin. Rendez-vous devant la sortie du RER Cité U. Comme d'hab, cette sortie est en prix libre, à un prix suggéré de 10€. Oui, tu peux venir gratuitement.

**The Listening Room — First Gathering** So much of life happens in loud spaces and quick conversations that never quite go beneath the surface. The Listening Room is meant to be the opposite of that — a quieter space where people can slow down, talk honestly, and actually listen to one another. For this first gathering, we’ll meet in a small group and explore a simple conversation prompt together. The goal isn’t debate or performance — just thoughtful conversation and the chance to connect with others in a genuine way. Our prompt for this gathering will be: **When have you felt truly seen or understood by another person?** Everyone will have the opportunity to share if they’d like, but there’s absolutely no pressure — listening is just as valuable as speaking here. We’re keeping the group intentionally small so the conversation can feel relaxed and natural. Looking forward to meeting you. — Benny

The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Let’s meet, wander the exhibits and open galleries, and enjoy an evening out in the Franklinton Arts District. (Nearby pay parking is available in the garage on McDowell, right around the corner from One Line Coffee, and, past it along the curb as McDowell dead ends.)

Join us for a casual chat over coffee & tea at Porter’s Coffee House. Come out and meet some new people, enjoy your favorite drink, and make some new friends!

Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024
