**Hands in the Soil: Community Growing, Learning & Craic** This first gathering will be a relaxed mix of **hands-on garden work, shared learning, and good conversation**. It’s about getting together in a real space, doing something practical, and seeing what ideas and connections might grow from there. On the day, we’ll: * Get our **hands dirty** with some light garden work and soil prep * Do some **seed sowing** and talk about what grows well locally * **Make kombucha together** and chat about fermentation, food, and simple home practices * Share knowledge, questions, and experiences around growing food * Enjoy some **fellowship, chats, and a bit of craic** along the way.Alongside the practical side, we’ll also have an open, informal discussion about a bigger idea: * The possibility of **small community “park farms” or gardens** in underused green spaces around Dublin * What that might look like, what’s realistic, and whether others feel drawn to exploring it further There’s no pressure, no expertise required, and no expectation beyond showing up with curiosity and a willingness to pitch in. Whether you’re experienced with gardening or completely new, you’re very welcome. Bring clothes you don’t mind getting muddy, and if you have them, gloves. Everything else will be very low-key. This is just a **first step** — a chance to meet, work, talk, and see if there’s a shared appetite to keep growing something together.

Do you understand French but struggle to speak naturally when it’s time to respond? Join a relaxed **French conversation group** where we use a **real conversation between 2 native speakers** as a way to practise speaking French in a natural and structured way. This is not a traditional lesson. It’s a guided conversation space where you **practise speaking** through **real-life content**. \#\# 📰 This session’s topic : an **authentic French conversation** between 2 native speakers expressing their opinion about a movie. In this session, we will work with a short clip of Tow french **Youtubers discussing a movie**🎬. \#\# 🎥 BEFORE THE SESSION Before the meetup, you will watch a short French vidéo clip from Youtube. This video will give you the key vocabulary and context so you feel more comfortable speaking during the session. You will also receive a few simple comprehension questions to help you prepare your ideas. \#\# 💬 DURING THE MEETUP \(ONLINE\) We will use this content as a starting point for discussion and speaking practice. You will be guided through conversation questions to help you : * Give your opinion about a film or video. * Nuance your opinion (using expressions like a bit, rather, quite, not really…). * Compare or revise a previous judgement. * Justify your opinion by giving reasons. * Give a rating and explain your choice. You don’t need perfect French — the goal is to speak and build confidence. \#\# 🗣️ ACTIVITY FORMAT The session will include : * group discussion based on the video * guided speaking questions * interactive conversation practice * a final speaking activity / role-play based on the scenario * \#\# 🎯 WHAT YOU WILL IMPROVE By the end of the session, you will have practised how to: * speak more spontaneously in French * understand and react to real French content * build confidence when expressing ideas * move from “I understand” to “I can respond” \#\# 🌿 ATMOSPHERE This is a supportive, low-pressure environment. Mistakes are welcome and part of the learning process. The goal is communication, not perfection. \#\# 👥 LEVEL Intermediate French learners (you should already understand basic French and be able to form simple sentences). \#\# ⭐ FREE EVENT – FEEDBACK APPRECIATED This is a free session, and your feedback is very important for me as I build these conversation groups. At the end of the meetup, I’ll kindly ask participants to leave a short review about their experience — it really helps others decide whether to join future sessions. \#\# 📩 Feel free to join or message me if you have any questions

Through seasons of growth, shifts in the cultural landscape, and the evolving heartbeat of our community, one thing remained constant: the power of music to unite us. This summer, we invite you to a special anniversary concert, **"Singing in the Changes, We Were There,"** a retrospective and forward-looking journey through the melodies that defined our journey. **Why You Can’t Miss This:** ● **A Journey Through Time:** Experience a curated repertoire featuring "fan favourites" from the last 30 years, alongside contemporary pieces that signal our future direction. ● **Stories in Song:** Between sets, we’ll share the stories behind the music—reflecting on where we were then and where we are now. ● **Community Reunion:** This isn't just a concert; it’s a homecoming. We welcome back alumni, long-time supporters, and new friends for an evening of connection and celebration. ● **Summer Ambiance:** Enjoy the magic of live choral music in a beautiful summer setting, perfect for families and music lovers alike. **Event Details:** ● **Date:** Sunday 14th June ● **Doors Open:** 6:00 PM \| **Show Starts:** 7:00 PM ● **Location:** Smock Alley Theatre From the first note to the final bow, we’ve been there—and we want *you* to be there too. Help us honour our past and sing our way into the next 30 years. **Reserve your seats today and be a part of the legacy!** Read less

Straw hats and Joycean attire not compulsory but certainly (heavily) encouraged. :-) "Come forth, Lazarus. And he came fifth and lost the job" (Ulysses, chapter 8). Let's celebrate Bloomsday by having a swim in Joycean attire. **Read** The final lines of Molly's soliloquy (obviously not all 40 pages of it), will be read. **Swim** Let's have a dive into the snotgreen and scrotumtightening sea. The swim is at your own risk! We are no lifeguards and we only arrange the meeting point. Make sure you have enough layers to keep warm before and after the swim, bring something warm to drink too. Some wear wetsuits, others don't so, some want to swim a bit of distance, others just want dip and get out - it's your swim, do what you want and meet us after... **Eat** Having demonstrated our incredible bravery, we will continue our adventure at a local café (time and venue TBC later, will try and source one that hopefully provides Joycean fare). Eating and drinking are at your own risk too. Will your eyes be bigger than your stomach? Don't leave it too late to sign up for the swim so I can book enough seats in the café afterwards. If you have questions, comments, suggestions, post them in comments for this swim. Browse discussions if you want to ask about the group or other events. See you on Sunday June 14.

Some of the most important chapters of our lives begin in ways we never expected. A move to a new country, the end of a relationship, a career change, a personal loss, a new opportunity, or simply a moment when life quietly takes us in a different direction. For our first Pathmakers gathering, we will explore the unexpected beginnings that have shaped our journeys and the lessons, challenges and discoveries that came with them. This is not a workshop, therapy session, coaching group or networking event. It is a small and welcoming gathering where people can connect through meaningful conversation, active listening and shared perspectives. You are welcome to share your story, listen to others, or simply be present. Every perspective is valuable. We’ll gather over tea, conversation and a few shared treats in a warm and relaxed atmosphere. If you’d like, feel free to bring a small snack, fruit, biscuits or something simple to share with the group. The intention is simple: To create a space where we can reflect on the paths we didn’t plan, learn from one another’s experiences and discover that there are often more people walking similar roads than we realize. This gathering is free to attend. If you enjoy the experience and would like to support future Pathmakers gatherings, voluntary contributions are welcome (but never expected) to help cover Meetup platform costs and other small expenses related to hosting the community. Limited to 6 participants to keep the conversation intimate and meaningful.

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B What does it mean to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world? In this gathering, we'll continue our series on the Sermon on the Mount from a mystical perspective. Together we’ll explore Matthew 5:13–16, looking not only to the passage as moral instruction, but also to the deeper transformation of consciousness that Jesus invites. Together we'll reflect on how spiritual awakening changes the way we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.
