Pencil Sketching Techniques

**Make. America. Funny. Again.** Take a journey through the mind of an American. An American Idiot. **Edy "U-the-Man"** presents his hilarious one-man comedy showcase, **"*American Idiot*.**" It is a self-deprecating, manic, no-holds-barred look at the American experience in Europe. In this **high-energy show**, **nothing is left off the table**, not even his dignity. Come for the sharp social commentary on his experience living in Italy, the state of the world, and his deeply concerning **personal anecdotes** about his love life, work life, and family life. All of which are both concerning and hilarious. Edy’s one-man show is a **loud, chaotic, and completely unfiltered** descent into the mind of a man who is sometimes introspective, sometimes delusional, but always funny. **Edy "U-The-Man"** – Edy is Nigerian-American and the Organizer/MC of Divine Comedy Club Milano. He has performed in cities across Europe, including Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, Paris, Malta, Berlin, and many in Italy. **Divine Comedy Club Milano** is one of the first English-language comedy clubs in Milan. It is a mix of local and expat comedians who are well-established in Milan's comedy scene. The club runs a weekly Open Mic event.

Venerdì 29 Maggio, al centro culturale Slow Mill Milano, in via Volturno 32 si terrà la presentazione del nuovo libro “La pupilla”, dello scrittore Darien Levani. L’incontro inizierà con un drink di benvenuto, dalle 17:30, e durerà fino alle 19:30. Il protagonista è il maresciallo Faber, un tipo diverso dall’immaginario comune: non è un eroe, nè un duro da fiction e non è neanhe particolarmente brillante; è un uomo stanco, ironico, incasinato, ma anche incredibilmente lucido. Si destreggia tra dovere e vita privata, a volte come un elefante in una stanza, a volte come un abile ballerino sul palco. Per citare l’autore, è uno che abbraccia le contraddizioni, le tiene in tasca, ci dorme assieme e la mattina dopo ci fa pure colazione. Perché le contraddizioni non sono ipocrisia, sono la nostra condizione naturale. Dialogano con l’autore Sonila Alushi e Nicola Eynard. Si ringraziano per il Patrocinio e la collaborazione, Il Consolato Della Repubblica d’Albania a Milano, Libreria Incrocio Quarenghi e l’Associazione Dora e Pajtimit. Vi aspettiamo in tanti. Slow Mill è gestito dall’Associazione Dora e Pajtimit APS. Il tesseramento annuale all’Associazione (€5, drink incluso) è obbligatorio per i maggiorenni.

A little time for you, your hands, and people who get your vibe. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll design and create your own pair of polymer clay earrings — playful, bold, or minimal, totally your call — and craft a resin jewelry dish for your nightstand, the perfect home for your everyday pieces. No experience needed. Just show up, slow down, and let your creativity do its thing. This is more than a workshop — it’s a space to meet like-minded women, share a relaxed moment, and reconnect with your creative side (the one that usually gets lost between to-do lists). We’ll guide you step by step, but you’ll have full freedom to experiment, mix colors, and create pieces that actually feel like you. And yes — there’s a little aperitivo, because good conversations (and good ideas) need fuel. What you’ll create: A pair of handmade polymer clay earrings A resin jewelry dish for your bedside or vanity Where: Kookie LAB Vibe: relaxed, creative, social (but not awkward) Come alone or bring a friend — either way, you won’t feel like the odd one out. ✨ All materials included ✨ Duration: 2 hours ✨ Language: English **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls. We provide access to hundreds of experiences that explore your passions and connect you with other event participants. **Check our website to learn more, and apply to join our community and events**: [lesamis.cc/apply](https://www.lesamis.cc/apply)

Ever felt like days/weeks/months pass by faster than you can notice? ​We are often caught in a race, to the point we don't even know where we are going or why. ​This event is about slowing down - an afternoon to notice, appreciate, reflect and recenter. ​Small group, a mix of journalling and guided conversations. You'll work through some guided prompts to help you review your past month and plan the next one with more intention. ​It's not a workshop. There won't be any productivity hacks or optimisation strategies. It's a chance to catch up with yourself before the next month pulls you under. And have deeper conversations with strangers than most events would allow. ​**What to bring:** a blanket to sit on, a notebook and pen, and something to share with the group - snacks, fruit, whatever's in your kitchen. We will bring some drinks but if you want something specific, take it with you. ​*If the weather has other plans, we'll move indoors - you'll hear from us in advance.* **Important:** to confirm your spot, please register [here](https://luma.com/13d1zvgm)
