Hi everyone! I thought it would be fun to try something a little different and more creative. This time we’ll try something a little different. The challenge is simple: Bring a small object and use your creativity to turn it into a story. It can be a toy car, a LEGO figure, a miniature animal, a keychain, a small figurine, or any object that inspires you. Together we’ll explore how perspective, composition, light, and imagination can transform everyday objects into unique photographs. The goal is not technical perfection, but creativity and storytelling. Smartphones are absolutely welcome. We’ll spend the session experimenting, sharing ideas, and creating images that make small objects feel part of a much bigger world. Everyone is welcome, from beginners to experienced photographers. Come join us and let’s create some stories together! 📍Location: Parco Tre Torri

Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

In 2024, a personal moment of crisis inspired Mary to create a tool that could help others facing similar challenges. What began as a resource for veterans quickly evolved into a broader solution designed to support individuals and families navigating autism, mental health challenges, caregiving responsibilities, medical conditions, and other situations where communication can become difficult during times of stress. *** ## About the Business Craft Alchemy has developed the **Anchor Tag Support System**, a personalized QR-based support hub that helps individuals quickly access calming tools, emergency contacts, support resources, and personalized information when they need it most.
