Chers tous ! Le Musée de la LIbération organise une exposition autour de Robert Capa : "Robert Capa a inventé un style : le photographe de guerre, l’œil rivé à l’objectif, le scoop toujours à l’esprit. Témoin engagé, son regard a marqué durablement l’histoire du photojournalisme et a façonné la figure nouvelle du photographe de guerre. Le musée de la Libération de Paris - musée du général Leclerc - musée Jean Moulin propose, avec la collaboration exceptionnelle de Magnum Photos, une relecture contextualisée de son oeuvre. Plus de soixante tirages de presse d’époque sont présentés aux côtés de magazines, ouvrages, documents et objets personnels. Ensemble, ces cent soixante pièces retracent ainsi le parcours d’un jeune immigré hongrois devenu une icône de la photographie moderne." Musée de la Libération Pour acheter votre billet (créneau 14h30) : https://www.billetterie-parismusees.paris.fr/content# Puis, pour ceux qui le souhaitent nous irons dans une brasserie dans les alentours pour discuter, boire, manger, échanger... Enfin, assurez-vous, je vous prie de vos intentions de participation. Belles escapades artistiques et à bientôt ! Jélila PS : j'enverrai la veille tous les détails pour se retrouver. Aussi, vous pouvez prendre le créneau avant ou après si celui de 14h30 est épuisé.

**Sans Clue H3 R*n 1189 | 🍾Crémaillère 🥳** It's a « Crémaillère » hash! Which the hare will explain later or maybe never. There will be a marked walker’s trail, but if you miss the R/W splits you’ll be right back on the runners trail (so it’s self punishing). Beer stop is at a pub so please bring a few extra euros for that. I recommend bringing a vessel 🍼 to have some water on trail and beer 🍺 at the on-after. After circle, we’re hosting a housewarming party 🎉 at our place with food and drinks provided. On on! 👣🍻 🐰 Hares: Pleasing Semen & Bloody Snowjob 👣 Trail: A-to-B trail, no bag drop 🧭 Directions: métro Anvers (ligne 2) 📍 Meeting Point: The trail will start in Square d’Anvers, on the downhill (foreshadowing) side of métro Anvers 💶 Hash Cash: 10 € (Hash cash is collected to keep our club active, and also to pay for your beer and snacks) 🥐 Bring what you need. Up to you, but this could include water, sunblock, snow goggles, survival snack, chalk to back mark, a whistle if you can’t shout, brand new running shoes, a virgin, shiggy socks, a hash hymnal, a bag of tea, a bag of wine, wax, and/or extra cash.

Pour cet IMPROMPTU, Ekaterina nous invite à visiter "La Fosse aux filles" d' Alexandre Kouprine et "La Maison Tellier" de Guy de Maupassant. Dans La Fosse aux filles, Alexandre Kouprine propose un tableau psychologique d’une grande dureté. Il ne cherche aucune provocation, mais s’attache à montrer la lente déshumanisation des femmes enfermées dans ce système, tout en explorant la banalité du mal, la résignation subie et l’érosion progressive de toute illusion. Le regard est empathique, grave, parfois étouffant, et laisse peu de place à l’échappatoire. À l’inverse, La Maison Tellier de Guy de Maupassant adopte un ton plus léger, parfois quasi burlesque, sans pour autant être naïf. Par le biais de l’ironie et du décalage, Maupassant révèle l’hypocrisie de la bourgeoisie provinciale et souligne à quel point la maison close, loin d’être un scandale isolé, est parfaitement intégrée à l’ordre social. Derrière le sourire, la critique est fine et profondément mordante. **Présentation d'auteurs** Ekaterina fera une courte présentation d'Alexandre Kouprine et Claude nous parlera de Maupassant afin de mieux éclairer/contextualiser les deux oeuvres. **Inscription** Ne vous inscrivez, s’il vous plaît, que si vous êtes sûr(e) de pouvoir lire au moins une des deux œuvres d'ici là et d'être présent(e) le jour J. Au plaisir de se rencontrer, débattre, discuter, autour d'un verre :)

Hi Badminton Fans! Come and join us every Sunday for a fun session of badminton. There are usually 2 sessions to choose from, **This 11 am - Open Session is open to players of all levels, though mainly intermediate players and below.** **If you are a complete beginner -** Talk to us first before signing up, and we can try to make accommodations and maybe have beginners-only court to begin with, with one of the organisers ready to explain all of the basics, such as serving, scoring, rules etc, as well as some pointers to help you progress. **Which Session To Choose** If you're unsure of your level, sign up for the 11am session to start, or ask us! We will try our utmost to ensure that you play with people of similar levels. **What Do You Need** Don't worry about equipment; racquets and shuttlecocks are provided, and there's no need for a badminton license or insurance. Just bring your indoor sports shoes, and a willingness to meet new friends and have lots of fun. There are changing rooms and showers. **Get There Early** Try and get there early to change and get warmed up so that we can start right on time. The courts are normally not being used before we play, so we can get a little extra time playing. **Registration & Payments** Registration is 14€ per person, and you can sign up via PayPal through this event page. For alternative payments, check for available slots on the event page first. Then, submit your payment via https://revolut.me/jonathwu3q with a description of which event you are signing up for, and send the screenshot to one of us so that we can add you. *Please Note: If your name is **not** in the attendees list and you do not have confirmation from us, you will be turned away.* **Annual Membership Option** For regular players, there is the option to take out an annual membership. This costs 80€ for the first year and is renewable each year for 40€. This reduces the weekly registration fee to only 10€ per session. **No Refunds** In the case of a cancellation or no-show, there are no refunds. See you all on the court on Sunday. Happy badminton-ing! Kelvin (0603250357) and Vijay (0767341832), **FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS** 1. I don’t speak French, can I join? * Yes! We are an international group and everyone speaks English! 2. Are there still available slots? I can’t sign up! Help! * Check the bottom of the event page for availabilities. Once full, RSVPs will be closed. Sign up as early as possible because the events fill up very quickly. 3. I signed up, but I can’t make it! Can I get a refund? * No refunds for cancellations or no-shows. If you inform us early enough, we can try to find a substitute and refund you, but no guarantees. 4. Why can’t I get a refund? * We need a fixed number of participants to maximize court usage, court fees, team arrangements, and team rotations. Cancelations throw all of this off. 5. Do I need to bring anything? Water? Racquets? Birdies? * If you have your own racquet, that will be best! Otherwise, we have spare ones and we provide the shuttlecocks. Bring enough water to hydrate yourself.

It feels like we just saw each other 🤷. Join members of the local design and UX community for our monthly breakfast. For May we’re stopping in for Rooh’s popup breakfast/cafe concept. You know someone is getting the lobster yuzu croissant, and that’s not even the prettiest thing on the menu!.

The Unity of Columbus Resource Group for the Homeless is seeking compassionate volunteers who would like to help serve and uplift members of our homeless community. This group is dedicated to sharing kindness, resources, and support with individuals who may be experiencing difficult circumstances. Anyone with a heart for service is welcome to join us as we work together to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Community members are also invited to contribute by bringing helpful items for those in need. Donations of items can be contributed at the meeting and will be distributed to assist members of the homeless community. Please consider joining us and sharing this opportunity with friends, family, or associates who may also wish to help. Learn more about Unity of Columbus at www.unityofcolumbus.org or call (614) 267-4959. Together we can extend compassion, dignity, and support to our community. 💛

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
