"Behind the Curtain" is a new women’s group built around real conversations and genuine connection. It’s a place where you can show up as yourself, talk about the things that actually matter, and feel truly heard — without pressure and without judgment. We intentionally leave work, small talk and our phones at the door, making space instead for honest stories, thoughtful questions and meaningful connection. To keep the space intimate and make sure everyone has room, spots for each gathering are limited. While each event stands on its own, the hope is that familiar faces will return over time, allowing trust to grow and real friendships to form. Whether you come with something on your heart or simply to hold space for others, you’re welcome here exactly as you are.

Join us for a 2-hour acrylic painting workshop where you'll experiment freely and walk away with a stunning piece that's totally, uniquely yours — no experience needed, just curiosity. In this relaxed and playful session, you'll design your own portrait of the popular Mount Fuji under the step-by-step guidance from a local artist. Learn fun techniques, explore your personal style, and let loose a little. Bold, soft, textured, or wildly experimental — it's entirely your call. This is so much more than a painting class. It's a social, inspiring experience filled with color, laughs, and creative freedom. You'll leave with a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, fresh inspiration, and some really lovely memories. **Meetup Special 🎨** Get **10% off** when you book directly through heycreate — use code **MEETUP10** at checkout. 👉 [Book your spot here](https://www.heycreate.ch/offers/lost-in-japan-UuhFEGbRR6ilV2hhpu7uAA?selectedEventId=f1eeca76-b0da-4104-ad78-087df95296cd) **What's included** Canvas, paints, brushes, apron, and everything else you need — plus professional step-by-step guidance and your finished artwork to take home. **What to bring** Clothes you don't mind getting a little paint on (aprons provided, but maybe skip the favourite white silk top).

Apéro Mensuel

Enjoy a bit of Columbus culinary history at Carfagna's market, wine bar and ristorante. We will gather for a glass of wine or two in the wine bar at 6:30 with dinner at 7pm.

I hope you'll join me at [Carfagna's](https://carfagnas.com/) AMAZING complex on Gemini/Polaris. *Live, local acoustic music during dinner.* **Come by early for happy hour til 6pm.** Or, join us for dinner; show time is 6-9PM, Thursday. Reservation at 6pm for 12 under Michele Z (overflow can linger near the bar).

***Okay, call me crazy but you have got to try their chip n dip!*** Club 185 is a true hidden gem in German Village! Seriously, old school, good comfort food and drink. We will try to gather in spaces near the windows. While we'll share Chip n Dip, you'll want to order a sandwich, too. **Where the Chip Began (1817)** Potato chips can be traced back to an English chef, William Kitchiner, who includes ‘crisps’ in his bestselling cookbook, “The Cook’s Oracle.” **Chip and Dip Popularity** The popularity of chip and dip skyrockets at the end of World War II with new entertainment fads and the introduction of Lipton’s new advertising campaign for their famous French Onion Dip. (Club 185 doesn't openly admit it, but I'm pretty sure that's their dip recipe!) **[Club 185](http://club185.com/)**—a true neighborhood bar serving since 1954, when it was known as a local 'speak-easy'. Located in German Village, Club 185 features a menu of quality casual comfort food and full bar. From politicians to lawyers, hardhats to hipsters—all find Club 185 the perfect place to tame their hunger and quench their thirst! **PARKING**: I know, brick street parallel parking can be a pain. Two other choices, metered parking along Livingston heading towards Children's Hospital or across the street in the large church lot (park in spaces farthest away from the church entrance doors, closer to the street). **PRE-EVENT**: **HAPPY HOUR (3-5pm)**: Italian drinks and bites at [Cento's happy hour](https://centogermanvillage.com/menus/), nearby.
