AI, Curiosity & a Bit of Chaos with Workable
Register for free **ONLY** here: https://friends.figma.com/events/details/figma-athens-presents-ai-curiosity-amp-a-bit-of-chaos-with-workable/ 🚀
**Τhree designers, three short talks, and one shared obsession.👀**
Avra, Margarita, and Stefania from Workable are pulling back the curtain on what happens when AI enters the design process, and doesn't leave quietly.
Through three case studies — an AI agent, a UX game built from data, and Workable Reporting — they'll uncover how AI can expand creativity, speed up prototyping, and introduce a fair bit of chaos along the way.
*No hype. No magic tricks. Just real experiments, a few failures, and lessons learned the hard way.*
Come find out.
🗓️ **Thursday, 5th of March 2026, at 19:00**
**📍 Zone01 Athens, Kidonion 136, Nea Ionia.**
**And one more thing:** we're excited to announce a new collaboration with **Mobbin**, a curated library of real app UI screenshots and flows, built for designers who want fast, quality inspiration. Everyone who attends walks away with free Mobbin merch and a discount code to start exploring!

**Bio:** Keen on web accessibility and design, passionate about creating inclusive digital experiences. Angular enthusiast who thrives on writing HTML with a strong focus on WCAG compliance and uses a screen reader daily to ensure usability. Always down for a bowl of ramen and a good workout.
**—--**
## **Fanis Prodromou**
**Title:** The Next Generation of Forms: A Practical Guide to Angular Signal Forms
**Duration:** 35’
**Desc:** In this talk we will deep dive into Angular Signal Forms, a new feature designed to streamline how we handle forms. We will explore the core mental model and see how it fundamentally changes the user form development. Starting with the basics, we'll progressively build more complex forms, demonstrating how Signal Forms eliminates the need for many of the workarounds currently used with Reactive Forms.
**Bio:** Fanis is a Google Developer Expert (GDE) for Angular and Senior Front-End Developer. He is passionate about sharing his knowledge through his YouTube channel, speaking at conferences and meetups, and technical articles. He also stays current in the ever-evolving tech world by attending conferences and experimenting with new technologies, and is a co-organizer of the Angular Athens meetup in Greece.

Shut Up & Write!® [PIRAEUS / Athens]
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. 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:
11:00 - quick intros.
11:15 - timer starts: write for 1 hour.
12:15 - (the end) chat / take off / keep writing / socialising.
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. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at To Theatron!
What Should I Bring?
Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Ideally come with your laptop fully charged in case there are not enough plugs for everyone.
Other Important Details:
-Theatron is close to the newly-opened metro station Dimotiko Theatro. The tram also stops right outside, and there are several bus stops nearby.
-There is a parking service nearby on Kountouriotou 137 if you are unable to find a parking space.
-Please thank our hosts by purchasing something.

Tennis (singles, not doubles) #10 🎾 - Sunday morning ☀️
Tennis time! 🎾 I managed to book 4 hours, **9.00 - 13.00**!
I'm in to play all 4 hours. Don't worry, I got the stamina to back my statement up. 😎
You are free to only play for 1-2 hours, if this is what you wish, or more, if you're crazy for tennis like me!
Just let me know which hours you prefer.
We will play **singles**, and play on rotation (e.g. we play 2 games, then rotate), if we're more than 2 players on the court at any given time.
💪 Some **physical endurance** is **expected and required**.
❗️ Some **technical skill** is **expected and required** \- this is **not** a newbie-friendly event!
You don't have to be very good, just not beginner.
🧐 Check this rating system to self-rate your tennis skill: https://assets.tenniscanada.com/production/PDFs/Self-Rating-Guide-English.pdf
(mine is:
GROUNDSTROKES: 4.5,
RETURN OF SERVE: 4.5,
NET PLAY: 4.5,
SERVE: 2.5 😅 )
ℹ️ I have a spare racket that I can lend, and 5 tennis balls for us to play with.
🚀🎾👀 Any balls launched into orbit are charged with **2€ each**. So, please, don't do it.
🚇 **Location**:
The tennis court is located in **Peristeri,** very close to the **Agios Antonios metro station, red line** (10 min by foot).
Exact location will be provided for those that are actually going to come, the previous night.
ℹ️ Personally, I might be going there **by car**, so I can carpool other attendees, from the Agios Antonios metro station.
💸 **Cost: 5€/hour, per court**.
🕐 Event time! We'll gather outside the entrance of the tennis club **15 minutes prior** to our booked time (e.g. 09.00). To any members that is going to get carpooled: For obvious reasons, please do not be late!
🌧 This event may get cancelled if the **weather is rainy** *(before or during our booked hours - we cannot play in a wet tennis court).*

Contra dance with Big Scioty on March 7 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Frank Buschelmann**
**Band: The Rosenthorns**
**Big Scioty Contra Dance**
**temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/)
Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

Engaging in men’s work is the new way to forge friendships while being open-minded to personal growth. Many men experience healthier relationships, personally and professionally, by engaging in this work.
Open Men’s Group is a container for men to share vulnerably without receiving judgment or feedback.
We believe that emotionally mature, powerful, compassionate, and purpose-driven men will help heal some of society’s deepest wounds. We support the powerful brilliance of men and we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating – and suffering. We care deeply about men, our families, communities, and the planet.
