[FREE] 📵 The Offline Photo Walk 📸 | Liffey Landscapes & Architecture
**The perfect way to see Dublin through a new lens.** 🏙️✨
**We’re teaming up with our wonderful community member,** **Angie,** for a creative afternoon stroll as we capture the soul of the city—without the digital distractions 📵. This isn't about "the 'gram"; it's about the art of looking. We’re putting our phones on aeroplane mode and picking up our cameras to focus on the lines, light, and life along the River Liffey.
Angie loves capturing the hidden details of the city, and she’ll be co-hosting this walk to help us all find those perfect angles and unique perspectives.
🥾 The Route:
We’ll meet at the iconic **Samuel Beckett Bridge** and wind our way down the quays. We’ll be hunting for the best angles of Dublin’s architectural gems, including the **Custom House**, **Liberty Hall**, and the historic **Ha’penny Bridge**, where we will finish our journey.
* **Duration:** Approximately 2 hours.
* **The Finish Line:** For those who fancy a treat and a chat, we’ll head to **Cinnamood** on O’Connell Street afterwards for some coffee and their famous cinnamon rolls! ☕️🌀
***
📵 The Vibe:
Before we set off, we’ll tuck our "connected" selves away and chat while creating art! 📸
**Build Connection:** Even though we stay offline during the walk, the connection doesn’t end there!
After the event, we’ll encourage everyone to share their favourite "snaps" of the day our **WhatsApp group**. It’s a lovely way to see how everyone saw the same city through different eyes. 🖼️🤝
***
🕰️ The Schedule:
* **12:30 \|** Meet at the Samuel Beckett Bridge.
* **12:45 \|** Photo Walk begins.
* **14:30 \|** Arrival at Ha'penny Bridge & optional coffee at Cinnamood.
***
🐥 What to bring:
* **📷 Your Camera:** Whether it’s a professional DSLR, a film camera, or just your phone (strictly for photos—no scrolling!).
* **👟 Comfortable Shoes:** We’ll be on our feet for about 2 hours.
* **🌦️ Rain Gear:** It’s Dublin! Let's be prepared for all four seasons.
* **💛 Yourself:** No "content" creation required, just your creative eye. You can also just come to socialise, we love those walks together!
***
🎟️ Tickets & Support:
This walk is **free/donation-based**. We believe offline creative time should be accessible to everyone. If you’d like to support our mission and help us organise more of these events, any contribution is warmly welcomed! 💛
**⚠️ Liability:** *Please note that everyone is responsible for their own safety and personal possessions during the walk. Let’s look out for one another!*
We can't wait to see the city through your eyes!
***Please do not worry if there are not many attendees on meetup - we also host our tickets on [Luma](https://luma.com/theofflineclubdublin) \- the events always happen\!***

Let’s play… Dead Serious / Campfire
Join us every Sunday and tell a story as a group by playing a beginner-friendly roleplaying game. Every week we have 2-3 different games - you will choose which game you play on the day. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of each game, you just need to bring your imagination.
🎭 **This week's facilitators:**
* 🧬 **Cyrus** with *[Dead Serious](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1a_8HoeLE_anm-9TifDPy71cig5l92P9P/view?usp=sharing)*, a one-page RPG where you play invincible unyielding warriors. The most ELITE of the ELITE: The DREADBUTCHERS. But the squad has a malfunction - they can experience EMOTION. In this game you must always remain in character. If you laugh, stop talking in a DEEP IMPOSING voice or don't take the mission seriously your character might.... EXPLODE!
* 🐺 **Scott** with *[Campfire](https://witchpleas.com/products/campfire-the-any-story-anywhere-intro-rpg)*, a story-based game by our own Wojtek Borowicz. A group of friends have rented a cottage in the woods near Briançon, a remote Alpine village in France. They plan to spend a couple of days kicking back, drinking mulled wine, and skiing in a nearby resort. They are weary from their long journey, but that will soon be the least of their worries. Can they survive the night once the deadly secrets of Briançon emerge from the darkness on the night of the full moon?

Bealtaine Ecstatic Fire Dance, Sacred Song & Tea, OUTDOORS, Dublin Mountains
🌿✨️ B E A L T A I N E - Ecstatic Fire Dance, Sacred Song & Tea Ceremony
We are back!! Honouring the vibrant fertility and pure magic of the earth as she blossoms and expands in all her glory. You are warmly invited Saturday, 3rd May, 6:30pm - 9:45pm to a potent BEALTAINE ceremony of dance, sacred song, and tea outdoors in nature with our leafy friends & the winged ones.
✨️ Together, we will weave ecstatic dance with Kirtan (call-and-response style chanting rooted in ancient Indian traditions), HeartSong, and a tea ceremony with locally foraged healing herbs, creating a powerful arc of embodied transformation through movement, heart and voice.
Come celebrate this turning of the wheel, an immersion in joy, connection, and renewal deep within the spirit of the forest.
🤍 The dance guided by DJ Aidan Kavanagh will help release tension, emotional blockages, and mental chatter through free, intuitive movement. It bypasses the thinking mind and opens the body. Following this release, Kirtan & HeartSong gently guided by Felicity Ananda, invites us to reconnect & nourish our hearts and spirits through communal chanting & prayer & songs, inviting devotion & unity . The sequence is like a wave of voice and body reconnection ceremony.
The meeting together of dance & mantra offers our nervous system a total reset from expressive release to calm centredness. Aidan's DJing is set after a heartopening hawthorn tea ceremony, where we will invite our intentions for the evening. Dance and heartsong can help further clarify & deepen our intentions. Music will be a mixture of ethnotronika, world, folktronica, hypnotic and heart opening beats.
✨️ No dance, singing or meditation experience is necessary.
This is an OUTDOOR event. Please dress in layers and bring a blanket/yoga mat/cushion for your comfort.
No car? No problem! You can message Felicity to join our Whatsap Carpooling group on 0894037056.
Come along this Bealtaine, free your dancing body & singing soul & let's celebrate the lusciousness of the land & the expansion of these times together. Link in bio.
Le croí, Aidan & Felicity
\* Feel free to contact Aidan on 0876383781 or Felicity on 0894037056 for any further enquiries.
* Parking is limited so carpooling is encouraged. You will be invited to join a carpooling whatsap group upon securing your ticket.

In Person Event: The Secrets to Mental Health
Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it?
How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Take Control Of Your Life, Freedom From Negative Thoughts & Irrational Emotions
Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences.
Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future.
What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs.
At this free local Meetup event we will talk about:
* What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic.
* Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences?
* How to break away from negativity and focus on the future
* What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions?
Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home.
Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there.
