New Urbanism

DE Wir treffen uns im Stadtzentrum beim Münzplatz. Es gibt einige Sujets zum Zeichnen, zum Beispiel die bunte Häuserfassade der Augustinergasse, die schmucken Läden und Cafes oder die vielen Touristen und Menschen, die sich durch die Gasse schlängeln. Treffpunkt: Beim Brunnen um 14 Uhr *Wie immer, bring dein eigenes Skizziermaterial mit und eventuell einen kleinen Hocker. Es sind keine Vorkenntnisse nötig, nur Freude am Zeichnen und am Austausch mit Gleichgesinnten. Ich freue mich auf euch. Bis bald.* EN Will meet in the city centre at Münzplatz. There are many subjects to sketch, for example the colourful house facades of Augustinergasse, the small shops and cafes or the many tourists and people meandering through the Augustinergasse. Meeting point: At the fountain at 2 pm *As always, bring your own drawing supplies (sketchbooks, colours and pencils) and possibly a small stool. No previous knowledge is required for this event. Just have fun to draw what you see and share your drawing(s) at the end with everybody. I’m looking forward to meeting you soon.*

You know those spontaneous chats with a colleague by the water cooler or with an acquaintance you bumped into in town, where strangers gather around a random topic — and somehow, something sticks? A thought, a story, a spark that gets you wondering, reflecting, and feeling a little more alive? ✨ That’s the spirit of our monthly coffee gathering, **A Cup of Serendipity** — a reminder that connection can’t be scripted, only sparked with good company and good chemistry 🪄. **Join us for a morning of spontaneous conversation and connection!** There’s no topic, no script — just space for ideas and stories to flow freely, shaped by whoever’s present. The only thing planned is the time and place. The rest is up to us, where the conversation takes us. To keep the circle casual and intimate — a space where everyone can speak and listen — we’re limiting the number of participants. So please RSVP early to secure your spot!

Here's your chance. As a member of an international professional bank robbery gang, your task is to crack the high-security vault in a bank undetected. You've already bribed the guards and you're well on your way, but the guards have only given you a 60-minute window to pull off the heist and escape.* **Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the game**

< \* \* \* English version below \* \* \* > DE Fürs Wochenende ist gutes Wetter angesagt, also geht es diesmal wieder nach draussen. Albisrieden gehört zu den Quartieren, in denen man noch etwas vom alten dörflichen Zürich spürt: rund um den historischen Kern treffen Fachwerkhäuser, enge Gassen, Brunnen und gewachsene Strukturen aufeinander. Gerade dieser Kontrast macht den Ort spannend fürs Urban Sketching. Treffpunkt: Am Brunnen im Dorfzentrum, direkt beim Ortsmuseum an der Ecke Albisriederstrasse / Triemlistrasse. Bitte bringt euer eigenes Zeichenmaterial und idealerweise einen kleinen Klapphocker mit. Keine Vorkenntnisse nötig. Wir skizzieren rund 2 Stunden, allein oder in kleinen Gruppen, ganz entspannt. Danach treffen wir uns wieder, zeigen unsere Sketches und machen ein Gruppenfoto. Als Leitfaden dienen die Werte der Urban Sketchers: https://urbansketchers.org/de/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich ⸻ EN The forecast for the weekend looks good, so this time we are heading outdoors again. Albisrieden is one of those Zurich districts where you can still sense something of the city’s village past: around the historic centre, timber-framed houses, narrow lanes, fountains and long-established public spaces meet everyday neighbourhood life. That contrast makes it especially appealing for urban sketching. Meeting point: At the fountain in the village centre, right by the local museum (Ortsmuseum) at the corner of Albisriederstrasse / Triemlistrasse. Please bring your own drawing materials and, ideally, a small folding stool. No prior experience required. We sketch for about 2 hours, solo or in small groups, at an easy pace. Afterwards we regroup, share our sketches and take a group photo. As always, we follow the Urban Sketchers values: https://urbansketchers.org/who-we-are/#mission/ #uskzurich
