It is the time of year when we go and search for rainbows. We meet at Zurich main station - you can meet at Rappersil if you like. We then get the last boat from Rapperswil to Burkliplatz. The idea is to take pictures of the interesting places that the boat stops at, as well as the glorious landscape. The sun slowly disappears over the course of the journey. If we have mixed weather, then we will get interesting skies. We have never cancelled. You are very welcome to bring partners, lovers, and other random people. 18:20 Meet under the L’ange protecteur (Blue angel) 18:41 Zurich HB S7 train 19:22 Rapperswil SG 19:45 Rapperswil SG boat 22:00 Zürich Bürkliplatz

[Exceptionally at the Alehouse, while Strauhof is closed for the summer!] Join us for an opportunity to enjoy, discuss and learn from excellent writing. We'll have a semi-private room at The Alehouse, with three reading and discussion slots and an opportunity to meet other writers. A few notes for prospective writers: 1. You aren’t required to share your own work and should feel encouraged to attend simply to enjoy and discuss the work of others, if you prefer. 1. All genres, formats, and styles of creative writing welcome, noting that the focus will be on discussing English-language fiction (or creative non-fiction). Poetry is likely to be better suited to the marvellous Zürich Poetry Club. 1. All abilities are welcome, from those just starting out to those who have already made progress in their writing, from hobbyists to professionals. 1. There will be three reading slots for each session, allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. Please indicate in the comments for the event if you would like to share something. 1. If you would like to share your writing with the group, you can do so either by reading aloud or allowing group members to read directly. You can expect to read for 5-7 minutes (approximately 600-1000 words) with 15-20 minutes provided for discussion afterwards. 1. If possible, please bring sufficient copies of any writing that you would like to present, so that everyone can read it themselves. You can also request written feedback. 1. Improving as a writer requires both guidance and encouragement, so you can expect the discussion to be constructive and courteous - we all know how challenging it can be. We hope that you will be able to join, and look forward to seeing you there!

**Meditationsreihe: Fokus finden – Konzentration & Achtsamkeit stärken** Dienstags, 9. – 23. Juni 2026, 18:30-19:45Uhr im Volkshaus Zürich mit Gen Kelsang Devi (Englisch mit deutscher Übersetzung), 25CHF [www.kadampa.ch/zurich-city/](http://www.kadampa.ch/zurich-city/) Unser Leben fühlt sich oft chaotisch und stressig an. Manchmal haben wir Mühe, unsere täglichen Aufgaben und Pflichten erfolgreich zu erledigen. Es mag helfen, unseren Lebensstil, unsere Routine oder unseren Job in irgendeiner Weise zu verändern, aber im Grunde genommen wird sich unser Leben immer überwältigend anfühlen, wenn wir es versäumen, unseren unruhigen, unkonzentrierten Geist zu adressieren. An diesen Meditationsabenden werden wir erkennen, wie ein abgelenkter, unruhiger Geist unsere Leistungsfähigkeit und unser Wohlbefinden einschränkt, während ein ruhiger, konzentrierter Geist uns glücklich und effizient macht. Wir werden lernen, was Konzentration ist, welche Vorteile sie hat und wie wir sie entwickeln können, sowohl in der Meditation als auch, und das ist entscheidend, in unserem täglichen Leben. **Themenliste** 9\.

Vier Bilder. Vier Himmelsrichtungen. In ihrer Mitte: eine Eule, die antwortet. ​Mit Zwischen den Welten eröffnet Karin Schiffmann einen Raum zwischen Orientierung und Ungewissheit, zwischen Malerei, Objekt und lebendigem Dialog. ​Die grossformatigen Himmelsrichtungs-Bilder spannen ein Feld auf, das weniger Landschaft zeigt als Kräfte sichtbar macht: Aufbruch und Rückkehr, Anziehung und Loslassen, das Bekannte und das Unbekannte. ​Im Zentrum steht die Orakeleule, eine Installation, die altes Wissen und neue Technologie miteinander verbindet. Über Jahrzehnte hat Karin Schiffmann Texte, Bilder, Überlieferungen und persönliche Aufzeichnungen gesammelt. Aus diesem handverlesenen Archiv entsteht ein KI-gestütztes Orakel: Wer die Eule befragt, erhält keine beliebigen Antworten, sondern Resonanzen aus einem persönlichen Wissensraum, gefiltert durch Maschine, Erinnerung und künstlerisches Denken. ​Kleine Eulenobjekte und Fabeltierbilder treten als Zwischentöne in den Raum: nah, eigenwillig, präzise und still. Gemeinsam verdichten sie die Ausstellung zu einem Gefüge aus Zeichen, Fragen und Gegenwart. ​Was geschieht, wenn Kunst zu sprechen beginnt? ​Ein Raum zum Erleben, Sehen und Fragen. ​Gustavo Salami gibt an der Vernissage einen kurzen, verständlichen Einblick in die Frage, wie künstliche Intelligenz Kunst verändert: Was bleibt menschlich, was wird neu möglich, und warum betrifft uns das alle? ​**Ort** Kuble – House of Intelligence Räffelstrasse 26 8045 Zürich [kuble.com](https://kuble.com/?utm_source=luma) ​**Vernissage** 16\. Juni 2026 ab 17:00 ​[karinschiffmann.com](https://karinschiffmann.com/?utm_source=luma) ​Karin Schiffmann, geboren 1952 in Bern, lebt und arbeitet in Zürich. Ihre künstlerische Praxis bewegt sich zwischen Malerei, Ritual, Objekt und Forschung. Sie studierte unter anderem bei Prof. Leiko Ikemura und zeigte ihre Arbeiten international, unter anderem in Mumbai, Zürich, Schaffhausen und im Metaverse.

A relaxed weekly meetup for the Muslim community in Zurich — and anyone curious to connect — to catch up and enjoy good company over coffee. No agenda, no preparation needed. Just show up and be yourself. What to expect • Casual conversation and community vibes • Great specialty coffee (their dattelcino is a must-try ☕) • A welcoming space, open to everyone • Occasionally, the group may spontaneously turn the morning into a day activity — a walk, an outing, or something fun. No pressure, always optional. Whether you’re new to Zurich, looking to expand your social circle, or simply want a regular moment to reconnect with the community, this is your space. We warmly welcome Muslims of all backgrounds and denominations, as well as non-Muslims who’d like to join, get to know the community, or simply share a good conversation. Please register so we have a rough idea of who’s coming — it helps with seating! 📍 Location: Tamani Cafe · Leutschenbachstrasse 95, 8050 Zürich

The topic for June is "Roadtrip" 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 and wander the galleries! General admission on Sundays is free.

Welcome, readers! Our June read is ***Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible*** ***Voyage*** **by Alfred Lansing.** A work of nonfiction, and one of the most astonishing survival stories in history, we follow Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew after their ship is crushed by Antarctic ice. Stranded in one of the harshest environments on Earth, the men endure months of isolation, freezing temperatures, and near starvation—yet refuse to give up hope. Lansing brings their ordeal to life through vivid detail and firsthand accounts, capturing both the brutality of nature and the resilience of the human spirit. At its core, the story is a powerful testament to leadership, perseverance, and the unbreakable will to survive against impossible odds. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **all** **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖

Would you like an excuse to work on a game with other talented artists, programmers, musicians, designers, and writers? Digital, table-top, non-experienced developers, and the like are welcomed!
