Exposición de Acuarela · Curso 2025–2026 El jueves 18 de junio, de 18 h a 21 h, celebraremos la exposición de fin de curso de las alumnas de acuarela de La Pera Verde en La Clandestina de Poblenou (C/ Pere IV, 483 · Barcelona). Durante este último año hemos compartido un espacio de aprendizaje, experimentación y creatividad a través de la acuarela. Hemos explorado el color, la composición, la luz, la observación y distintas formas de expresión artística mediante ejercicios inspirados en la naturaleza, los objetos cotidianos, los paisajes, el collage y la historia del arte. La exposición reúne una selección de las obras realizadas por las alumnas a lo largo del curso y permite descubrir la evolución, la sensibilidad y la mirada personal de cada una de ellas. Más allá de las técnicas aprendidas, es una muestra del proceso creativo, de la constancia y del placer de dedicar tiempo a observar y crear. Os invitamos a acompañarnos en esta pequeña celebración del arte y del trabajo realizado durante el año. La Clandestina de Poblenou (C/ Pere IV, 483 · Barcelona) Jueves 18 de junio De 18 h a 21 h Entrada libre

We’re thrilled to announce the next edition of the BcnRust Meetup, this time hosted by **[Protofy](https://protofy.xyz/)**! Join us for an evening exploring two very different but equally ambitious Rust projects: an AI-native virtual machine that rethinks how code is executed, and a distributed task queue built as a hands-on journey into async Rust, concurrency, and fault-tolerant systems. Whether you're interested in language runtimes, AI agents, distributed systems, or simply seeing how Rust enables bold ideas, this meetup is for you. **Driver: An Agentic VM in Rust** by [Cristian Sánchez](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cr3at0r/) Most virtual machines are deterministic by design. LLMs break that. But what if AI wasn't an external API on top, but a native execution primitive inside the VM itself? Driver is a Rust VM where AI is a first-class execution primitive. The stdlib is aware of whether it's being invoked by deterministic bytecode or by an LLM-generated action and behaves accordingly. We'll cover the practical decisions behind the core VM, and the toolkit around it. **Aether: Learning Async Rust by building a Distributed Task Queue** by [Arnau Berenguer](https://www.linkedin.com/in/arnau-berenguer-jimenez/) Building a distributed system is a great way to learn async Rust because you run into all the hard parts for real. In this talk I'll walk through Aether, a personal project of a task queue that lets you submit and run Python scripts on a cluster from a CLI. We'll cover the system architecture, how to handle multiple concurrent tasks sharing state, how to handle loss of connection, and propagating cancellation signals on concurrent tasks over the network. Along the way we'll see the honest lessons learned and what makes async Rust hard but fun. **Why Attend?** * Explore advanced Rust applications, from AI-native runtimes to distributed infrastructure. * Learn practical lessons about virtual machine design, async programming, concurrency, and fault tolerance. * Discover how experienced Rust developers approach complex systems and architectural trade-offs. * Connect with Barcelona's Rust community and exchange ideas with fellow engineers, makers, and enthusiasts. * Get inspired by real-world projects that push Rust beyond the usual web services and CLI tools. Whether you're a Rust beginner curious about what's possible, or a seasoned developer looking to dive deeper into systems programming, you'll leave with new ideas, technical insights, and plenty to discuss. Let’s build, learn, and geek out over Rust together! 🦀 **Streaming**: We will stream it via YouTube so you can also subscribe to our [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@bcnrust) to get notified when we go live.

Mi pasión por el básquet no se detuvo aquí, así que después de 8 años como jugador federado, quise ver el básquet desde otro prisma. Este, me llevo a trabajar de forma autónoma como arbitro en la Federación Catalana por mas de 4 años sobre las distintas regiones de Catalunya. Ahora, como profesional de la salud y el deporte con mas de 13 años de experiencia en el sector y tras mi regreso a Barcelona después de estudiar un postgrado de entrenamiento de alto rendimiento, crear esta escuela de básquet junto Alexis, es uno de los proyectos mas emocionante que he tengo en mi ciudad natal.

¡ACTIVIDAD ÚNICA! Los **atardeceres** de verano en el Monasterio de Pedralbes son **espectaculares**. Es la llamada "**hora mágica**".

Sin duda, una perspectiva, **una luz y un ambiente distinto** al que hay durante la jornada. También ese momento es ideal para tomar bonitas fotografias y disfrutar del silencio. Os proponemos pues, una **visita única y diferente**, que nos acercará a este monumento tan emblemático de Barcelona, en un horario y un formato poco habitual. Además, disfrutaremos de la tranquilidad de la zona en esta hora de la tarde-noche, y daremos un **paseo guiado desde Sarrià**.

**¡NUEVA RUTA DESCUBRIDORA!** Seguimos con nuestras **rutas culturales originales y distintas** para conocer **todos los rincones de la ciudad.** En esta ocasión, os proponemos una recorrido lleno de contrastes por los barrios de Diagonal Mar y el Besòs. Y es que a a pocos metros de distancia, en esa parte del Distrito de Sant Martí, nos encontramos con una de las **zonas más elitistas y caras** de Barcelona al lado de uno de los barrios **más populares y obreros de la ciudad.** Hemos preparado pues, un recorrido de 2h en el que iremos del Parc de Diagonal Mar, diseñado por Enric Miralles, hasta el centro del Barrio del Besòs, pasando por los rascacielos y hoteles singulares del Pg. Garcia Fària, el Fòrum...etc. Sin duda, una estética más propia de EEUU y Miami que de una ciudad mediterránea como la nuestra. Así veremos el gran cambio que supuso para la zona, la construcción de este nuevo barrio a raíz del **Fórum Universal de las Culturas**, y cómo contrastó con la historia de un **barrio humilde y obrero**, surgido en los años 60 y 70 en una zona de rieras y alejada de la ciudad. En la segunda parte de nuestra ruta, nos pasearemos por las calles de los barrios del **Maresme y el Besòs**, analizando su urbanismo, su historia y el pasado relacionado con los barrios de barracas del **Camp de la Bóta**. Éste es nuestro **PLAN**: 1. Encuentro en el metro de Selva de Mar e iniciamos ruta! 2. Recorrido por el Parc de Diagonal Mar, los rascacielos y las zona más espectacular del barrio. 3. Pasamos por el Fòrum y recordamos qué había allí antes de su titánica construcción. 4. Seguimos ruta hacia los barrios del Maresme y el Besòs. Hablaremos de su historia y urbanismo utópico. 5. Terminamos en el barrio del Besòs, uno de los barrios populares más desconocidos de la ciudad. Como siempre, en todas las rutas **se acompaña de explicaciones de un guía licenciado en historia por la UB** **PRECIO**: 14 euros correspondientes a los honorarios de guía licenciado en Historia

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
