< \* \* \* English version below \* \* \* > DE Diesmal zeichnen wir rund um den Klausbrunnen im Zürcher Oberdorf. Der Brunnen geht auf einen Antrag aus dem Jahr 1588 zurück und gehört damit zu einem Stück gewachsener Stadtgeschichte. Rund um den Platz gibt es viele engen Gässchen in denen ihr sowohl Schatten als auch viele malerische Winkel findet, die darauf warten, skizziert zu werden. Treffpunkt: Auf der kleinen Platzanlage an der Ecke Neustadtgasse / Frankengasse, direkt beim Klausbrunnen. 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 This time we will sketch around the Klausbrunnen in Zurich’s Oberdorf. The fountain goes back to a request from 1588 and is therefore part of the city’s layered urban history.

Meeting point: On the small open square at the corner of Neustadtgasse / Frankengasse, right by the Klausbrunnen. Please bring your own drawing materials and, ideally, a small folding stool.

Think of it as the Sunday version of the new **coffee rave trend** — relaxed, social, and full of energy, just earlier in the day and with amazing views over Zurich. **Zurich Together will have its own table**, so our crowd can start the day together, grab brunch, and warm up with familiar faces. From there, you can stay with the group or mingle with the wider party crowd on the terrace and dancefloor. Expect a fun mix of locals and internationals, open-minded people between **18 and 45**, and the kind of atmosphere where conversations start easily and Sundays suddenly become much more exciting. Sunlight, good music, brunch plates, day drinks, and a rooftop dancefloor — not a bad way to start the day. ☀️ **What to expect** • Rooftop brunch with beautiful city views • House music & sunny daytime vibes • Zurich Together table to meet our crowd • Social atmosphere – easy to meet new people • Dancing, drinks, and brunch on the terrace 🎟 **Tickets** Use our **15% discount code**: **Zurich-Together31** Get tickets here: https://tickets.brunch-party.ch/events/brunch-party-hiltl-dachterrasse-2026-05-31 Come solo or bring friends — either way, it’s the kind of Sunday where breakfast meets bassline. **Brunch.

This is "***New Members Night***." If you are one of the many folks on the fence about coming to your first wine tasting with the *Hilliard Wine Club*, this is the night to come. There will be many other new people, so you won't be alone. And the regulars will be there to help make you feel welcome. We're a relaxed and warm group. We hope to see you. **SIDE NOTE:** New members are welcome to ALL our Friday night wine tastings, but this night is a special overture to those who don't want to feel that they are the only new person in the room. Don't worry. You won't be. And don't hesitate to RSVP to other events. **OLD MEMBERS NOTE**: Hey Old Members! You're not excluded from this event. We expect to see you there to help make the new members feel welcome. **Sample 4 different wines** this Friday for $15 (*Cash or Venmo only please*). Glasses are provided. Bring a snack to share. Bring a bottle to share if you care to. See all the details below for the Hilliard Wine Club Wine Tasting. In Person. In Real Life. Actual Wine from glass bottles with corks and everything. **Wine**: Tastings will be $15 for four samples as always. And you are welcome to bring a bottle of your favorite wine to share with others. Participation in the wine tastings is optional. But since you’re going, I will buy enough wine to cover you. If you bring your own wine and do not participate in the tasting you will only pay $10 to cover the door charge. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **Extra Wine**: After everyone has had their samples, we remove the pouring spouts and any remaining wine is poured freely to whomever wants it. I hate having leftover wine. **Queen of Hearts**: The Queen of Hearts raffle is a fundraiser for the club and a Barnum and Bailey type extravaganza - minus the dancing ponies, clowns, and actual circus. Bring your ***cash*** as the Queen does not accept American Express or other plastic. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*
