## 🌅 **Atardecer & Cambio de Hora en la Playa (Barcelona)** En medio del estrés del día a día, las prisas, la rutina y la sensación de no parar nunca… a veces lo único que necesitamos es un momento para desconectar de verdad. Este plan es exactamente eso. Con la llegada del cambio de hora, te invitamos a hacer una pausa consciente y regalarte un momento de calma viendo cómo el sol se esconde en el mar, rodeado de buena energía y personas con las mismas ganas de bajar el ritmo. ✨ **¿Qué puedes esperar?** * Un atardecer espectacular frente al mar * Un ambiente relajado, sin presiones * Diferentes grupos donde charlar, compartir y conocer gente * Conversaciones libres: habla de lo que te apetezca 🥤 **¿Qué traer?** Una bebida, algo de picar o simplemente tu presencia — aquí vienes a disfrutar. No es solo ver el atardecer. Es darte un respiro, desconectar de la rutina y conectar con otras personas en un momento bonito y sencillo. Ven solo o acompañado — siempre hay sitio para uno más. Este evento está abierto a todo el mundo: tanto si eres local como si vienes de fuera, eres más que bienvenido. Podrás unirte a un grupo de gente local, internacional o mixto — tú eliges cómo quieres vivir la experiencia. **Punto de encuento:** Salida del metro Barceloneta. Iremos juntos caminando hasta la playa. *** ## 🌅 **Sunset & Time Change Gathering (Barcelona Beach)** With the stress of daily life, constant routines, and the feeling of always being “on”… sometimes what we really need is a moment to truly disconnect. That’s exactly what this plan is about. As the clocks change, we invite you to slow down, take a conscious pause, and enjoy watching the sun set over the sea — surrounded by good energy and people who also want to unwind. ✨ **What to expect** * A breathtaking sunset by the sea * A relaxed, pressure-free atmosphere * Small groups to chat, connect, and share * Open conversations — talk about whatever you feel like 🥤 **What to bring** A drink, some snacks, or simply yourself — this is your time to enjoy. It’s not just about watching the sunset. It’s about taking a break, disconnecting from routine, and connecting with others in a simple, beautiful moment. Come alone or with friends — there’s always room for you. This event is open to everyone — whether you're a local or visiting from abroad, you're more than welcome. You can join a local group, an international group, or a mixed one — it’s completely up to you how you want to experience it. **Meeting point:** Barceloneta metro Stop. We will walk together to the beach

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method) We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

Our monthly meetup is back and this time we’re diving into one of the most powerful drivers of sustainable development: **gender equality.** Join us for a networking evening at the beautiful Ocaña on Plaça Reial, bringing together professionals and advocates for meaningful conversations and new connections. What happens when women and girls are truly placed at the center of development?

In this session, **Daniela Padilla, Clothilde Bruneton, and Alba Romero** from the international NGO *[Street Child](https://street-child.es/)* will share insights from the field, exploring: * How gender inequality shapes poverty and access to education * Why investing in women delivers some of the highest-impact development outcomes * What it takes to turn global commitments into real, local change We’ll also open the discussion to reflect on current development priorities and how different actors — from NGOs to governments to the private sector — can accelerate progress. **Format:** * 30-minute expert talk / Presentation * Interactive discussion & Q&A * Networking drinks **Who should come?** * Private sector professionals exploring impact & ESG * Public sector and development practitioners * NGO, research, and policy professionals * Anyone interested in global development and meaningful conversations

This meeting will be a discussion of the book "the Science of Aliens" by Mark Brake

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!

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 7:00pm on Wednesday, April 22 at Streetlight Guild. 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:** 6:45ish - Quick introductions 7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 8:00 - The End **OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. 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! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.

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!
