Professional Networking

**Beginners sessions: starting and meeting new people.**

Come join us at The Playground with our weekly drop-in improv workshop! Running on Monday evenings, this is a chance to experience improv among like minded people. No experience necessary and all levels are welcome! Each week we will have a different theme with exercises and activities to allow us improve our improv skills. Whether you are interested in developing the skills for your professional or personal life, or you are someone who currently performs or would like to perform on stage, then there is something for everyone. The long-term objective of The Playground is to create a place for people to develop and create projects and shows, providing regular opportunities for those who wish to perform in shows. Facilitated by two very experienced improvisers, Neil Curran and Quinton O'Reilly, join us for some play! We also have guest teachers join us too. **Important Info** \* Each drop-in session lasts 2 hours and starts at 7pm in the Teachers' Club. \* Each drop-in costs just €12. \* You can also sign up for membership which costs just €30 per calendar month and gets you access to all workshops. \* No experience necessary and all levels welcome. \* Events run on a drop-in basis offering flexibility for those who can't commit to doing a course. \* Payment can be made on arrival. \* After the workshop, many of us stick around for chats in the bar upstairs so do stick around for it. For more about Neil Curran please visit www.lowerthetone.com Check us out on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/improv_playground/

Beginners welcome, or if experienced to sharpen your game, and for those who are keen can join team preparation for a summer 7-a-side tournament free for members..

Come along to get rid of the number one fear people have. Every week we have new members and people starting from scratch so you will not be alone. Everything is based around what you're comfortable with and you don't have to stand up, talk or do anything if you don't feel like it. But you will have the opportunity to speak at least 4/5 times a night. You can come along to see what we're doing and take part if you like. We will be running this for beginners every week and anyone is welcome to join us to learn and get better together. Hope to see you there :D We charge €5 to help towards the room rental.

Come join us **Monday** the **15th of June** at the **The** **Circular in Rialto at 7pm.** We’ll be at the Backroom, which you can find behind the curtain. We will have the usual socialising and networking with others in the Irish game development community. See what they have been working on, play test in-development games! If you have something you want to show off you can bring it along and get feedback too! If you want to present, you should fill out [this form ](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe0UVGSd0kdiLKtuOkgNPI89GswAZ4lxHbo2tlDujjU_C2vdw/viewform?usp=header) You can also join our discord channel here to keep the conversation going: [https://discord.gg/dJA7dhf](https://discord.gg/dJA7dhf) This month's 1GAM theme is "**Green**" What does 1GAM mean? Well, it's a monthly Game Jam (1 Game A Month, get it?). Every month we give you a theme, and you can bring a game you made during that month to show it off to the rest of the attendees. Think of it as optional inspiration for prototypes, and if you need extra motivation. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

You'll meet your local guide at the meeting point a little before 11AM and show your booking. Then we'll commence a fascinating walking tour through the streets, sights, and sounds of Dublin old and new. You'll get an unrivalled insight to the history and culture that has shaped the capital you see today - warts and all, discover the lesser-known, intriguing oddities of our city, and get unique insider tips for the rest of your stay. Sites and topics covered include: Dublin Castle, Christchurch, Viking & Medieval Dublin, Temple Bar, fables, folklore and mythology, Trinity College, Stephen's Green, risings and rebellions, writers & rogues and so, so much more... please remember, places are limited and you must book your spot via: https://www.generationtours.com/dublin See you soon!

Most places we meet other gay men are bars, apps, or busy social scenes. This is something a little different. Gay Men’s Circle is a relaxed evening where you can connect with other men in a more real and grounded way. No pressure to perform, impress, or have the right words. Some men share what’s going on in their lives. Others simply listen and take in the conversation. Both are completely welcome. Many people say they rarely get the chance to spend time with other gay men like this. It is often surprisingly refreshing. No experience with circles or men’s work is needed. Just come along and see how it feels. ### Practical details Please bring **€5 to cover the cost of the room** No entry **10 minutes after the start time** We meet **downstairs in the Theatre Room** Ring the **front door bell** to get in (the café is closed on Mondays) If you RSVP and cannot make it, please update your RSVP so someone else can attend.

I've been to professional networking events before, and sometimes they tend to get a bit cliquey (when too many senior execs or startup founders are involved), but I was really glad this wasn't like that at all!" **The Organiser** I’m an innovator in digital business for 25 years, including starting and selling a personal brand side hustle called 'Connector'. Recently, I published a book about the Future of Work, introducing the idea of Career Assets, as the Career Ladder is broken. I will have some copies of 'Learn Earn Own' available at a special offer price of €10 if you want a signed copy.
