DE Wie aus der Zeit gefallen, prägt die Silberkugel seit über 50 Jahren unverändert ihren Standort. Inzwischen gibt es nur noch ein einziges Lokal dieser Art und zwar in Oerlikon. Wer es ein bisschen moderner mag, kann ins gleich nebenan gelegene Venus-Bistro, das gebenfalls eine eigene Geschichte hat. Wir treffen uns draussen vor der Silberkugel um 14 Uhr. So kann jede Person entscheiden, welches Lokal sie bevorzugt. *Wie immer, bring dein eigenes Skizzenbuch und Stifte mit. Es sind keine Vorkenntnisse nötig. Ich freue mich, schon bald mit dir zu zeichnen.* EN As if frozen in time, the Silberkugel has remained unchanged for over 50 years. There is now only one other restaurant of this kind, located in Oerlikon. Those who prefer something a little more modern can visit the Venus-Bistro next door, which has its own story to tell. We will meet outside the Silberkugel at 2 p.m. This way, everyone can decide which location they prefer. *As always, bring your own drawing supplies (sketchbooks, colours and pencils). No previous knowledge is required for this event. Just have fun to draw what you see and if you like, share your drawing(s) at the end with everybody. I’m looking forward to meeting you soon.*

We meet in a "**fixed-rhythm**" every 2 Fridays in a **homey** & **lovingly-hosted space** so you can connect with new and familiar faces. We provide **several optional activities** to help you **connect** with others—so you're free to **explore what resonates** with you! Together these activities create a unique **Connection** **Event!** . **Today's event** are: * **🥳new comer area** (never was easier to spark a conversation, with ice-breakers, optional for first time attendees) * **🤣fun social games** (like "cards against humanity" and more - read game names below) * **🧘mindful games** (no small talk, connect deeper, from [The School of Life](https://www.theschooloflife.com/shop/?_product_type=games-card-sets) \- read game names below\) * **👯 20:00 - 20:30 Speed-friending** (guaranteed process to meet spark new fun discussions and meet new people - with moderator) * **🙀 20:40 - 21:10** **New** **Surprise Connection Activity** (in separate room) * 🏭 beautiful **homey** industrial location in downtown ZH * 🇩🇪**German-speaking** area (falls du nur Deutsch sprechen möchtest) * **🏠1 private room** (if you want to talk or play games in quietness) * 👬 or simply **hang-out** and **meet new & old friends** **without** a process ❤️ *Note: we **reserved 100%** of the space so **everyone** will be from our community!* . . . **Q&A:** * **Where** **idea comes from**?

I, Christos, have fond childhood memories visiting them with my grandfather. Though this tradition is fading in Greece, I’m passionate about reviving it with a modern twist. Hope you enjoy it! ❤️ * **Co-host?** and support this event? Then please contact Christos * **Weather?** Event takes place rain or shine, with indoors rooms and outdoors area that is ultra rain-protected * **Coming late?** no problem, we got many people until closing at 00:00 so come whenever! * **Coming solo?** guess what, again no problem! 95%+ of people come solo - its the perfect event to come solo! * **Too many attendees?** no problem, we got the space! Also as per the "what" above: you define what makes the event meaningful for you! Furthermore, the co-organisers have one goal: to say hi and introduce you to the event and people (if you want to please ask)! Finally remember: you dont have to talk to everyone, focus in a few people! Less is more! 😃 If you dont know where to start look for a good smile or an activity more matching to you. From there keep on trying people and activities.. * **Why so many options above for connection?** We always have: a first-timer area, Fun social games, Mindful games, ice-breaker questions or simply just talk freely to anyone. Often we add: Speed-friending and a Music jam. We believe **you are unique** and each of us prefers different ways of connection. Also we want to provide an opportunity for everyone to try something new * **Easy and Safe:** We have the whole location reserved for us so its safe to open up and meet new friends (unlike bars in Zürich where people find it strange if strangers talk to them).

These recurring events create a "fixed" community without any specific reasons for connection (like interests, genders, age or countries). **Everyone is welcome**! The event is that **simple**😀. . * **WHAT is Connection Space?** Imagine a co-working space where everyone is with headphones, laptops, mostly being 'alone' all day ... or a cafe/restaurant/bar where pretty much all people talk to people they already know.. . The **"Connection Space"** is exactly the opposite of that; its a **fun** social environment outside family and work, a cultural exchange, where we **unite** and hangout with **new and old friends** as **one community**. . Thats it. . No to phones, laptops, zoom-calls, books No to a specific reason to get together (eg. only for specific hobbies, genders, age groups, languages etc) No to just talking to your friends Not a dating, not a party, not an expat-only meetup NO to division (political racial gender etc) . Yes to simple and real in-person connection with new and old friends YES TO FUN! We got many optional activities for you to try out Yes to feeling like home & come as you are Yes to unity, love and respect for one another Yes to eating, drinking and music Yes to everyone-is-welcome & always-free events YES to UNITY! Getting along with each other in spite of different opinions . Our events are **inspired** by the Greek village culture of "[Καφενείο](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kafenio)" (village coffeeshops) with photos [HERE](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=569660528&sxsrf=AM9HkKlXnclaLfgcockKtdr9qHdmD5jaGw:1696060562834&q=greek+%CE%BA%CE%B1%CF%86%CE%B5%CE%BD%CE%B5%CE%B9%CE%BF&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi52fX67dGBAxXnlf0HHZNiBHUQ0pQJegQICRAB&biw=1460&bih=913&dpr=2). When myself Christos was a kid, my granddad took me to these "[Καφενείο](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kafenio)". Every neighbourhood had one, and people met, without an exaggeration, on a daily-basis. It was the community center of the village. People met new and old friends, played games, socialised, ate snacks, drank coffee and ouzo. It was a very friendly, welcoming and homey environment. Unfortunately this concept is rapidly dying in Greece. As a kid I had extremely good memories of these coffeeshops, and for this reason I am passionate to revive and recreate this environment and also add a modern twist. Hope you enjoy it! . * **WHAT is NOT Connection Space? NOT** a drinks or party event (responsible drinking only, no shots, no free drinks). **NOT** a dating event. **NOT** foreigners-only, but everyone is welcome * **What KIND of event is this?** Its a mix of **social** and **cultural event** that build **community**. We have many people from so many different cultures socialising, we promote culture with events with Art exhibitions and Live Music and we also revive the social culture of the Greek traditional village coffeeshop (Καφενείο - read more above). . Looking forward to **fun quality Connections**! 🙂 ``` Disclaimer Participation in this event requires a signup.

(English after the German text) **Achtsame Fotografie - Geschichten erzählen** *Treffpunkt: Auf der alten Bahnhofterrasse (siehe Eventfoto)* In diesem Mindful Photowalk werden wir der Limmat entlang wandern und zwei verlassene Orte besuchen. Die Gründe, warum diese verlassen sind, sind unterschiedlich. Beim alten Lettenbahnhof fahren heute keine Züge mehr, und die zweite Station ist die Lettenbadi, welche im Winter einsam und verlassen auf den nächsten Sommer wartet. Beide Plätze bieten eine tolle Gelegenheit für unseren achtsamen Fotowalk mit dem Ziel, mit wenigen, sehr bewusst geschossenen Fotos die Geschichte dieser Orte fotografisch zu dokumentieren. Du brauchst keine Vorkenntnisse, nur die Freude am Experimentieren, deine Kamera oder dein Smartphone und die Bereitschaft, dich auf das Neue einzulassen. Ich freue mich sehr darauf, mit euch bei dieser kleinen Stadtwanderung diese spannenden Orte zu erkunden. \-\-\- English \-\-\- **Mindful Photography Telling Stories** *Meeting point: On the old train station terrace (see event photo)* On this mindful photowalk, we will wander along the Limmat and visit two abandoned places. The reasons why these places are abandoned are different. No trains run at the old Letten station anymore, and the second location is the Lettenbadi, which waits quietly and deserted through the winter for the next summer. Both locations offer a great opportunity for our mindful photowalk, with the goal of documenting the story of these places through a few mindfully taken photos. You don't need any prior knowledge just a joy for experimenting, your camera or smartphone, and the willingness to embrace something new. I’m really looking forward to exploring these exciting places with you on this small city walk. \-\-\- PS \-\-\- (D) Dieser Spaziergang ist kostenlos, eine [Donation](https://tscharner.payrexx.com/pay?tid=861b78d0) zur Deckung der Unkosten ist sehr willkommen.
