Café philo sur l'argent
But de notre Café philo sur l'argent : vous permettre de parler avec d'autres de la place de l'argent dans la société et dans votre vie.
Vous pourrez :
* parler d’argent en toute confidentialité et sécurité;
* rencontrer des personnes qui ont également des questions ou des difficultés à propos de l’argent;
* vous enrichir de leur expérience et les enrichir des vôtres;
* trouver des réponses à vos questions;
* clarifier votre relation à l’argent;
* inventer de nouveaux comportements plus heureux avec l’argent.
Ce café philo est ouvert à tous et gratuit.
Le thème du jour est choisi collectivement en début de séance. Pas besoin d'être un philosophe ni même un "intellectuel" : nous partageons nos questions et nos réflexions sur l'argent dans la simplicité, l'écoute, la bienveillance et la confidentialité.

Life Drawing Session 445 (female) GUY MÔQUET - Long pose
Join us for a long pose workshop with a female model, led by figurative artist John Kelly. The session consists of 45 minutes of drawing or painting, followed by a 15-minute break, and then another 45 minutes with the same pose. John will be present throughout the entire session to offer individual guidance on the principles of drawing and painting from life. If you prefer a more self-directed approach, you are welcome to work independently at any time.
The workshop is suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists. It offers a supportive environment to develop your artistic style while exploring different aspects of academic drawing or painting, experimenting with new techniques, or refining compositional ideas. It's designed to guide your exploration of the human form through an anatomical lens while capturing the model's emotional presence.
As always, posing for you are professional fine art models affiliated with the Beaux-Arts de Paris and other Parisian life drawing ateliers. Please bring your preferred art materials.
All media are allowed, including pastels, ink, watercolor, or paint. If you need additional advice on materials, such as oil paints or watercolor paper, please don’t hesitate to contact John directly at jfkellydesign@gmail.com or send us a message. This session doesn't provide a basic drawing materials set. Once again, please remember to bring your own art supplies.
**About John Kelly**
Born in Paris and raised in New York, John studied at the School of Visual Arts before pursuing a career as an art director and oil painter. He employs traditional oil painting methods while also painting *alla prima*. Influenced by Balthus, Degas, and traditional Japanese prints, his figurative work explores the psychology of the model and the viewer’s gaze. For more details, visit John’s website: johnkellyart.com.
We kindly ask everyone to RSVP to secure their spot. If you haven't booked, we reserve the right to deny participation if the session is full. For any questions about a specific session, feel free to contact us via Meetup or email your host / organizer at [deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) or [maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/)
**Early Bird Discount**
If you book your spot at least 6 days before the session, you can enjoy a special early bird rate. After that, the regular price of €25 (excluding platform fees) applies to both untutored and instructed sessions. Don’t miss out!
**Refunds**
We offer a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before the event. Refunds are not issued automatically, so please send us a short message via Meetup or email [maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) to request a refund after cancellation.

Club de lecture n°13 : Klara et le Soleil, peut-on programmer l'amitié ?
Bonjour à toutes et à tous👋
J'ai hâte de vous retrouver le **14 mars 2026** pour échanger sur notre nouvelle thématique : **l'amitié**
Nous sommes passés par la fraternité de Georges et Lennie dans *Des souris et des hommes*, mais également par les tempêtes de *Hurlevent*. Cette séance nous promet une réflexion tout aussi profonde, mais d'une modernité captivante ! ☀️🤖
Pour la suite de notre club de lecture, vous avez choisi d'explorer ce qui nous lie aux autres, entre dévouement et technologie. Nous partons cette fois dans un futur proche, à la fois doux et troublant.
Nous découvrirons ensemble :
**Klara et le Soleil de Kazuo Ishiguro** : Un chef d'œuvre de la littérature contemporaine, c'est un récit fascinant sur une "Amie Artificielle" (IA) qui observe le monde humain avec une pureté bouleversante. Plus qu'une critique de la société, Klara et le Soleil est un livre touchant et intriguant, que l'on ne lâche pas.
Un de mes grands coups de cœurs !
Nous pourrons en discuter de vive voix le samedi 14 autour de notre thé ou café ! ✨🍵☕
À très bientôt,
Jade

Venez discuter de ce qui vous stress au travail
C'est un petit groupe gratuit, à l'étage d'un bar. Vous n'êtes pas obligé de consommer, mais cela ferait plaisir au patron :)
Social Run : Courir en conscience
Et si la course était un moyen de mieux se connaître ?
Le Socrate Social Run, c’est un format simple :
* 7 km en groupe
* Allure accessible (\~6 min/km)
* Un temps d’échange après la course
* Un moment convivial
Ici, on ne vient pas chercher un chrono.
On vient vivre une expérience.
Le concept :
Courir ensemble, être attentif à son souffle, à ses sensations, à ses pensées qui apparaissent dans l’effort.
Des exercices pratiques pour voir comment le mental peut être un allié dans l'effort.
Le module explore les thématiques suivantes :
* Comprendre sa relation à l’effort physique,
* Repérer ses automatismes (comparaison, impatience, découragement, manque de souffle),
* Découvrir ses ressources naturelles,
* Apprendre à écouter son rythme,
* Expérimenter l’alignement entre corps, souffle et attention pour donner le meilleur.
Après la course :
Un débrief simple et concret pour partager ce qui a été vécu, croiser les regards, approfondir l’expérience entre coureurs.
Puis un moment convivial autour d’une boisson
Les Scènes Ouvertes : En avant, Liberté !
**Pour le Printemps des Poètes, donnons vie à la Liberté !**
Musique, chant, poésie, théâtre, conte... Venez assister ou vous exprimer sur scène !
*"L'art est un simple divertissement".*
*"La scène est réservée aux experts".*
*"La poésie est un luxe inutile".*
A Nouvelle Acropole, nous pensons précisément le contraire.
**L'art, c'est ce qui nous rend pleinement humains. Pour notre école de philosophie, l'Art est la sagesse faite Beauté.**
L'être humain a encore quelque chose à dire, quelque chose d'unique qui dépasse la simple consommation de contenus numériques.
Un poème déclamé, une chanson partagée ou une histoire racontée sont autant de fenêtres que nous ouvrons sur d'autres réalités que nous pouvons partager.
Offrons une scène pour que chacun puisse exprimer ou écouter ce qui est beau, ce qui l'inspire, ce qui résonne.
> *"Non, c'est bien plus beau lorsque c'est inutile !"* Cyrano de Bergerac
**Donnons forme à ce qui nous habite.**
**Lieu** : Espace Le Moulin, 48 rue du Fer à Moulin 75005 Paris
**Cette activité a lieu après** **un atelier poésie qui aura lieu de 15h à 17h :**
**Entrée gratuite, réservation conseillée :** [https://www.eventbrite.fr/e/1981438909116?aff=oddtdtcreator](https://www.eventbrite.fr/e/1981438909116?aff=oddtdtcreator)

Columbus Chess Club
This is a time where players of all ages, and skill levels can gather and enjoy a nice Sunday full of Chess!
Shut Up & Write!® East Side Columbus
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 7:00pm on Wednesday, March 25 at Streetlight Guild.
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:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. 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! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
**OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:**
* **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space!
* **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels.
* **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay!
* **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them.
Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, 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 due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "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.
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 Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.

MENU: https://www.fugusushicolumbus.com/menus
RSVP: An RSVP here means you're signed up for the DINNER portion of this event. Seating is limited. If you also plan to join for the movie, please also RSVP in the separate event listing for the movie portion of this event. For the movie, we'll meet in the theater lobby at 2:10pm for the 2:30pm SuperScreen DLX showing. Advance ticket purchase for the movie is advised. Please RSVP in both events, if you plan to attend the movie and dinner.
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
Humanist Program: Fighting the Efforts to Insert Religion into Public Education
The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event.
Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk.
Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association:
They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved.
Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online
