El Rol en Viu consisteix a afegir-li una acció més teatral i dramàtica a aquests enfrontaments. Si t'interessa aprendre a combatre, emular les lluites de les teves pel·lícules favorites, lluitar amb espasa, subjectar un escut, dominar els secrets de l'equilibri de peus o fer fitnes d'un mode diferent; el Softcombat i el Rol en Viu són una activitat que has de provar. **És durant el matí de 11h a 13.30h quan major quantitat de participants es reuneixen.

Los Arty Sunday han vuelto! Y para el primero del 2026 vamos a la exposición de Helen Levit! El plan es ver la exhibición y luego, si te apetece, tomar algo por la zona. Helen Levitt (1913-2009) comenzó a fotografiar su Nueva York natal a finales de la década de 1930, con imágenes que reflejaban la vida en los barrios más pobres, y sobre todo los niños y sus juegos en las calles. Lo hizo con un infalible instinto para reflejar, más allá de las escenas infantiles, todo lo que la vida cotidiana contiene de emoción, enigma o humor. Su obra obtuvo pronto el reconocimiento que merecía y ya en 1943 el MOMA de Nueva York organizó su primera exposición individual. A lo largo de su carrera prestaría también gran atención al medio cinematográfico. Artista socialmente comprometida, Levitt fue una de las primeras mujeres en abrirse camino profesionalmente en la fotografía. La exposición (cerca de 200 fotografías organizadas en 9 secciones) ofrece un completo recorrido por el conjunto de su trayectoria. https://kbr.fundacionmapfre.org/exposiciones/helen-levitt/ \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Els Arty Sunday han tornat! I pel primer del 2026 anem a l'exposició d'Helen Levit. El plan és veure l'exhibició i, després, si et ve de gust, prendre alguna cosa per la zona. Helen Levitt (1913-2009) va començar a fotografiar la seva Nova York natal a finals de la dècada del 1930, amb imatges que reflectien la vida als barris més pobres, i sobretot els nens i els seus jocs als carrers. Ho va fer amb un infal·lible instint per reflectir, més enllà de les escenes infantils, tot allò que la vida quotidiana conté d’emoció, enigma o humor. La seva obra va obtenir aviat el reconeixement que es mereixia i ja el 1943 el MOMA de Nova York va organitzar la seva primera exposició individual. Al llarg de la seva carrera també prestaria gran atenció al medi cinematogràfic. Artista socialment compromesa, Levitt va ser una de les primeres dones a obrir-se camí professionalment a la fotografia. L’exposició (prop de 200 fotografies organitzades en 9 seccions) ofereix un recorregut complet pel conjunt de la seva trajectòria. https://kbr.fundacionmapfre.org/exposiciones/helen-levitt/ \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Arty Sundays are back! And for the first one of 2026, we're going to the Helen Levit exhibition. The plan is to see the exhibition and then, if you fancy, grab a drink in the area. Helen Levitt (1913–2009) began photographing her native New York in the late 1930s, capturing images that reflected life in the city’s poorest neighborhoods, particularly children and their street games. She did so with an unfailing instinct for conveying, beyond childhood scenes, everything in everyday life that contains emotion, mystery, or humor. Her work soon earned the recognition it deserved, and in 1943 MoMA in New York organized her first solo exhibition. Over the course of her career, she also devoted significant attention to film. A socially engaged artist, Levitt was one of the first women to carve out a professional path in photography. The exhibition (nearly 200 photographs organized into nine sections) offers a comprehensive overview of her entire career. https://kbr.fundacionmapfre.org/exposiciones/helen-levitt/

This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Sunday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at noon on Sundays. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 12:00 - quick intros. 12:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 1:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 1-1:30ish. 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, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Sunday!

Come assist Van Buren Shelter (https://ymcacolumbus.org/locations/vanburen) staff in serving dinners and cleaning up on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Dinner for the women is 5-6 pm and for the families is 6:15-7:15 pm. There is ample free parking available in the shelter's lot. The recommended area to park is in green in the image above. There will be a new entrance for the time being. We are asking all volunteers to enter through the Donation Dock door, the orange mark on the image above. This door is located between the Single Adults and Family Shelter. You will see 2 large garage doors with a large green trash compactor in the center. Please head to the closest garage door to the building wall, with a ramp leading up. There, you will see a door with a sign stating instructions on how to enter the building. Please ring the doorbell, and a staff member will come and escort you into the building. If a staff member takes longer than 5 minutes, please call the front desk at 614-689-2020. This is a new process for us, and we do not want to keep you waiting! We appreciate your patience as we navigate this temporary change. The shelter needs a volunteer count the day before the event so sign-up ends Monday at 4:50 PM. Afterwards some of us go to the Omnipresent Atheists Weekly Meetup in progress to have a bit to eat or drink (http://www.meetup.com/omnipresentatheists/). Volunteers must be 14 or older. Since we will be working around families, the YMCA does not permit volunteering by individuals with convictions for violent or sexual crimes. The YMCA reserves the right to run background checks on volunteers. For questions, comment on this page or contact: Andrew, awhit12@yahoo.com, (614)937-5802 (cell). Please let Andrew know if you volunteer anytime other than our COUNT events so that he can count your hours toward our service record.
