Pencil Sketching Techniques

Friday evening sketching session at Villa Vauban. Every friday Villa Vauban is free between 6-9pm. To benefit from this we willl have a monthly sketch & sip session (in that order :)) using a specific room/painting in the museum. Note: While I will be at the museum at 6, to accommodate for people coming out later from work the meetup event is set at 7. After moving to a room I usually post where to find us in the whatsapp group. Agenda: 6pm (early arrivals) - meeting at the reception and move to a room by 6:10 7pm - for those of us that cannot leave work earlier, I will post where to find us in whatsapp. Sketching until 8 8pm - share our sketches 8-9pm sip your favorite wine, beer etc in a bar/restaurant in the city centre. Join the whatsapp group to keep informed and share your work: https://chat.whatsapp.com/CDtDO1GurPrA4ceFPePeQb

***The LuxBuzz Integration Breakfasts are back - New 2026 Series*** **Dear community,** We are happy to announce the return of the **LuxBuzz Integration Breakfasts** - a new series of warm, informal morning conversations designed to make life in Luxembourg easier to understand and navigate. We begin with a topic that touches everyone who arrives in this country: **Education, Languages and Integration in Luxembourg** For many newcomers, building a life here means learning how the system works and especially how languages shape everyday experience. · Which language should you focus on? · How does the education system function? · And how do these elements influence your integration journey? This first Breakfast is an opportunity to explore these questions together openly and without pressure. **Our guest speaker** We are delighted to welcome **Lorraine Duong**, foreign language educator and audiovisual project manager at the Institut de formation de l’Éducation nationale (IFEN). Lorraine brings a unique perspective combining: * deep knowledge of the Luxembourg education system * practical experience supporting language learners * and a genuine passion for helping people integrate with confidence **☕ What to expect** * a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere * practical insights you can actually use * space to ask your own questions * meaningful conversations with others navigating a similar journey **📍 Event details** **Date:** 27 March 2026 **Time:** 09:00 – 10:30 **Location:** The Office Charlotte, Luxembourg Participation is limited to keep the discussion personal and dynamic. This initiative is organised by **The LuxBuzz Academy ASBL** within the framework of the **Biergerpakt for Intercultural Living Together by MIFA**. We are grateful for their support in making these community moments possible. If you are navigating life in Luxembourg or simply curious to understand it better - we would be very happy to welcome you.

Moving to a new city is exciting at first — a fresh start, new opportunities, a new chapter. But once things settle, being new in town can feel lonely. You don’t know anyone yet, you’re unsure where to go to meet people, and everyone else seems to already have their circles. That’s where we come in. Our Fast Friending evenings are designed especially for those who are new in town and ready to build real friendships — creating welcoming spaces where conversations flow naturally and meaningful connections begin. **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk]( https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout.

Percival Everett writes a brilliant reimagining of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn told from the enslaved Jim's point of view. « When Jim overhears that he is about to be sold to a man in New Orleans, separated from his wife and daughter forever, he runs away until he can formulate a plan. Meanwhile, Huck has faked his own death to escape his violent father. As all readers of American literature know, thus begins the dangerous and transcendent journey by raft down the Mississippi River toward the elusive and unreliable promise of the Free States and beyond. » While known as "Jim" to his enslavers, James is a self-educated, articulate man who reclaims his name, "James". He is depicted as simple, credulous, and superstitious, but secretly more literate and erudite than most of the white people around him. 💡the book is available in Luxembourg librairies
