German Study & Discussion Group – Art | Sound | Philosophy Looking for people interested in learning and practising German through what we love: texts, sounds, and ideas in the fields of art, music, sound, and philosophy. No strict grammar drills, but collective study, reading, listening, and conversation. We learn together, with curiosity and care. 📖 We will read short German texts (poems, essays, reviews). 🎶 We will listen and describe sound/music pieces. 💭 We will discuss in German (and help each other along the way). Open to all levels – from beginner to advanced. Based in Berlin, meetings will be weekly or biweekly (depending on group). Come as you are 📩 DM or email vestigium.impro@gmail.com if you’re interested.

Berlin-based art curator and educator Jenia Yanes invites emerging and mid-career artists to two transformative workshops designed for the realities of the 2026 art world. This two-day intensive is aimed at artists ready to move from a hobbyist position to a professional artistic practice — developing a distinctive voice, a clear artistic mission, a market-aware presence, and a sustainable monetisation strategy through Jenia Yanes’ proprietary hybrid method. ## 21.02.2026 Strategic Foundations * Strategic positioning * Visual language * Artistic identity & mission ## 28.02.2026 Growth & Sustainability * Monetisation models for artists * Institutional and independent growth strategies During the workshops, participants will: * Articulate their artistic position, mission, and core audience * Develop a contextual strategy that bridges inner vision and the external art system * Learn how to integrate galleries, personal branding, merchandise, and digital channels into one coherent strategy * Navigate the post-AI art landscape of 2026, where authorship, narrative, and positioning outweigh technical craft * Gain a clear understanding of how the contemporary art market functions — and their place within it * Formulate an individual development strategy, including open calls, residencies, independent projects, and sustainable monetisation pathways **Booking Details** *Important Note: Please register directly with Jenia Yanes at [www.jeniayanes.com](https://jeniayanes.com/products/artist-career-workshop)* * Participation fee: €39 per workshop * Bundle price: €65 for both sessions * Capacity: 20 artists per workshop * Registration deadline: 20 February

**Caller: Frank Buschelmann** **Band: The Rosenthorns** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

VEGAN MEALS: As previously mentioned, the food vendor does NOT have a vegan option at this year’s Oscar Party. However, we DO have a solution! I have reached out to several individuals who are affected. If you are a vegan, plan to attend the Oscar Party and did not receive an e-mail from me, please reach out via private message post a note below. I’ll provide details off-line. And while there won’t be a vegan meal option this year, I think we do have a workable solution.
