This group is for anyone who wants to explore Buddhist meditation in a relaxed and supportive setting. Each session includes a short meditation, a simple teaching from Buddhist psychology, and an open discussion about how these ideas show up in everyday life. While our foundation is Buddhist practice, we love weaving in wisdom from other traditions whenever it helps us grow, find peace, and support each other. Members of our community come from many different backgrounds, and you do not need to consider yourself a Buddhist to attend. All are welcome. The session runs from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m., with doors open from 6:30 to 9:00. Come early or stay after if you’d like to enjoy some quiet reflection or casual conversation with the community. On the first Wednesday of each month, we share a potluck meal. Bring a dish if you’d like, but the most important thing you can bring is yourself. We look forward to seeing you!

Join Sober Supper Club – DC for an intimate group dinner at Treehouse Rooftop, an elevated jungle sanctuary tucked into the vibrant Union Market neighborhood of Washington, DC. Perched five stories above the city, Treehouse Rooftop blooms as a lush oasis featuring internationally influenced food and imaginative drinks, all surrounded by cascading greenery within a beautiful historic building. The space organically sprouts from what was once the Bolgiano's Seed Company — now transformed into HOTEL NELL, a boutique hotel that honors the building's storied past while offering a warm, stylish escape full of flavor and character. Treehouse's menu brings together global influences and seasonal inspiration, with creative dishes and thoughtfully crafted beverages designed to be shared and savored. The atmosphere is intimate and transportive — a rare pocket of calm and greenery above the buzz of the city, perfect for slowing down and connecting over a memorable meal. This dinner is intentionally small to keep conversation easy and the experience relaxed. Our guests typically range from 25–45, and the evening is designed for people who enjoy thoughtful conversation, beautiful food, and a communal table built for a fun sober night in the city. **WHO:** You + 9 Other Guests **WHAT:** Intimate Group Dinner **WHEN:** Wedesday, April 29, 2026 · 7:00 - 9:00 PM **WHERE:** Treehouse Rooftop // 411 New York Ave. NE, Wash DC 20002 **COST:** $15/person — RSVP ONLY (guests responsible for cost of dinner) To purchase your ticket on our website instead, head here: [https://sobersupper.club/events/ssc-dc-mar-31](https://sobersupper.club/events/ssc-dc-mar-31)

**This talk is completely sold out in advance and no door tickets will be available. You must have purchased a ticket to be admitted.** [Profs and Pints DC](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **“Exploring the Deep Sea,”** a scholarly dive into an enormous and little-understood ecosystem, with Melissa Betters, deep ocean explorer and deep-sea biologist at the Smithsonian Natural History Museum. [Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/dc-deep-sea](https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/dc-deep-sea) .] If you’re afraid of the deepest, darkest reaches of the ocean, you aren’t alone. For centuries, humans have imagined the ocean’s depths to be inhabited by all manner of monsters, from the Kraken to Godzilla. But what is the cost of viewing over 70% of our planet with fear and aversion? Who benefits from that? Come to see the deep sea as far more worthy of fascination than fear with the help of Dr. Melissa Betters, a biologist and marine ecosystem researcher who has made nine trips to the bottom of the ocean and taught at Bryn Mawr College and Temple University. She’ll take you on a scholarly exploration of various deep-sea ecosystems around the world such as deep coral reefs and boiling-hot hydrothermal vents. We’ll get to know some of the deep ocean’s captivating biodiversity, examining where it lives, what it does, and why it matters to us. With her help you’ll come to see the deep ocean as a tapestry of different environments, each of which host their own forms of life and present their own suite of ecological challenges. Importantly, we’ll also look at how the deep ocean is portrayed in both myth and media, considering how our perceptions are skewed by the rhetoric used to describe it and the images used to depict it. Despite appearing far-removed and out of reach, the deep ocean is still a part of our planet, subject to all the same challenges and human impacts as life on land. The final part of this talk will examine the variety of human impacts affecting the deep ocean and actions we can take to protect Earth’s final frontier. (Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes later.)
