Join visual artist and teacher Elena in her atelier by the Thames for an afternoon of mindful making. Whether you're a seasoned creative or have never picked up a pencil for art, this workshop is designed to welcome you exactly as you are. **What to expect** You'll begin with a short introduction to the art of mandalas — their origins, forms and meanings — before moving into a guided meditation. This is a dedicated moment to open your heart, to recognise yourself as both a source of love and a receiver of it, and to tune into the themes of love and connection that run through the whole session before you start creating. From there, you'll work on your own mandala using card paper with a lightly traced grid as your foundation. Using a blend of intuitive doodles and meaningful words — or whichever feels right to you — you'll create something entirely your own. The atmosphere is relaxed and supportive. Light conversation is welcome, though you're equally free to work quietly in your own world. Towards the close of the session, there will be an optional moment to share reflections with the group. **You will leave with** \- Your unique\, handmade mandala to keep \- A fresh sense of calm and presence \- A deeper connection to yourself — and perhaps to others **What's included** \- All materials are provided: paper\, pencils and markers\. **Please Bring** BYOB: Please note that no drinks or food will be provided. Please bring your own drink to enjoy as you create. The studio is conveniently located near The Orchard Café and Layers Bakery, should you wish to pick something up beforehand. **The venue has step-free access.** Trinity Buoy Wharf The workshop takes place at Trinity Buoy Wharf — a historic 19th-century site on the Thames, once home to the craftspeople who kept Britain's coastal waters safe, now reborn as one of London's most vibrant creative communities, home to artists' studios, a sculpture park, and London's only lighthouse. Arrive early or linger after — there is always something to discover. At weekends, you can visit the lighthouse, free of charge. Inside it, you can hear Longplayer, a thousand-year musical composition for singing bowls. Step inside, close your eyes, and let the resonance wash over you. An unexpected sound bath, and the perfect way to begin — or continue — the inner journey. Visit the [Trinity Buoy Wharf](https://www.trinitybuoywharf.com/ "https://www.trinitybuoywharf.com/") website for more on opening times and events. **Privacy & Photography** *By attending this event, you agree to the possibility of being photographed or filmed.

It's happening again! **WHAT:** Free Improv Drop-in. No experience needed / beginner friendly! (18+ for now; plans for a "kids and parents" drop-in are in the works) **TIME & PLACE:** Sunday 1:30pm - 3pm Delaware Library - 84 E Winter St, Delaware, OH 43015 in the Community Room **WHAT TO BRING:** Punctuality, yourself, a good attitude, and a willingness to have fun and be a bit silly and goofy around others. That's it! **WHAT THIS IS:** A time for fun and exploration. We're going to do improv warm-up exercises and play silly improv games. Think of it as "dipping your toe" into improv comedy. **WHAT THIS IS NOT:** Deep improv training with scene work; a place of judgement or worrying what others think; a place where you're expected to know what you're doing. Please mention in the comments if you're planning on attending or use the "attending/interested" function; it really helps me plan the class depending on the amount of people participating. Feel free to comment / spread the word / message me if you have any questions. Thanks! ALSO: Please don't take the amount of people marked going as the # that will be there; I post this on FB groups, Reddit, and Nextdoor, so I always have at least 3 - 6 people for games. Join us!

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Saturday!

The topic for April is "Water" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
