**[BUCH DEINEN PLATZ IM KELLER HIER!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/comedy-im-keller-wiens-underground-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-30RBKX?ref=MeetUp)** **Deutschsprachiges Comedy Open Mic in Wiens schönstem Keller. Neue Comedians, frische Jokes, freier Eintritt – jeden Dienstag im Comedy Pub.** Willkommen zu **Comedy im Keller**, dem dienstäglichen Highlight der Wiener Comedy-Szene! Hier trifft sich jede Woche ein wilder Mix aus aufstrebenden Newcomern und erfahrenen Stand-up-Comedians, um neue Gags auszuprobieren, mutige Ideen zu testen und das Publikum im historischen Keller vom *The Comedy Pub* zum Lachen zu bringen. Der Name ist Programm: In Wien geht man zum Lachen in den Keller – und bei uns stimmt das zu 100%. Unser wunderschöner Altbaukeller bietet ein echtes **Underground-Feeling** mit einer intimen Atmosphäre, die dir das Gefühl gibt, Teil von etwas Besonderem zu sein. ## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic? Ein Open Mic ist die Werkstatt der Stand-up-Comedy. Hier entstehen neue Bits, werden Witze gefeilt und spontane Momente geboren. Mal landet ein Joke punktgenau, mal scheitert er glorreich – aber genau das macht den Reiz aus. Das Publikum erlebt Comedy **ungeschönt, unzensiert und hautnah**. ## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Pub oben, Lacher unten Der **Comedy Pub** ist einzigartig in Wien: oben Irish Pub mit kalten Drinks und lebendiger Atmosphäre, unten Altbaukeller mit Comedy-Club-Flair. Eine perfekte Kombination, um nach der Arbeit in die Woche zu starten: erst ein Bier an der Bar, dann ein Abend voller Lacher im Keller. Adresse: Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien – direkt bei der U4-Station Kettenbrückengasse. ## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen Comedy lebt vom Publikum. Deine Reaktionen – Lachen, Klatschen oder auch mal Schweigen – helfen den Comedians, besser zu werden. Deshalb ist der Eintritt kostenlos, aber Spenden sind ausdrücklich erwünscht. Wenn du lachst, wirf ein paar Münzen in den Hut – das ist die ehrlichste Form von Applaus. ## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum Damit alle eine gute Zeit haben, bitten wir dich um ein paar einfache Dinge: * Sei pünktlich – Comedy wartet nicht. * Respektiere die Bühne – keine Gespräche während der Show. * Lachen ist Pflicht! (und zwar laut 😉) * Kein Heckling – wirklich, das endet nie gut. * Spenden sind Liebe. Zeig den Comedians, dass sie dich zum Lachen gebracht haben. ## 🎉 Warum Dienstag? Weil die Woche besser startet, wenn du lachst. **Comedy im Keller** ist der perfekte Anti-Dienstags-Blues: frisch, roh, nahbar und immer überraschend. Jeder Abend hat ein neues Line-up, also lohnt es sich, immer wiederzukommen. #ComedyImKeller #ComedyWien #StandupWien #OpenMicWien #DeutschComedy #WienLacht #ComedyNightWien #ComedyClubWien #StandupComedyWien #LachenInWien #ComediansWien #LiveComedyWien #ComedyFansWien #ComedySzeneWien #KellerComedy #ComedyShowWien #WienEvents #WienNightlife #ComedyLovers #WienOpenMic #GermanComedy #ComedyVienna #ViennaComedy #StandupVienna #ViennaEvents #ViennaNightlife #ViennaOpenMic #ViennaStandup #ViennaFun #ViennaUnderground #ComedyLifeWien #WienHumor #StandupSceneWien #LaughsInVienna #ComedySpotWien #FunnyInWien #AltbaukellerComedy #ViennaLaughs #DienstagWien #UndergroundComedy

**No Diversity, No Games - How inclusion is no longer optional** The game industry has more talent, bigger budgets, and more powerful technology than ever before. Yet we’re stuck in sequels, safe bets, and recycled ideas. For decades, innovation was driven by hardware and graphics. That era is slowing down. Higher fidelity alone no longer creates novelty. Jack Gutmann argues that the next frontier of originality is perspective. Homogeneous teams create blind spots, predictable design, and cultural echo chambers, a form of creative inbreeding. With AI amplifying existing patterns, inclusion is no longer optional. It is creative infrastructure. If games are to remain innovative and culturally relevant, inclusion must be understood as creative infrastructure [Jack Gutmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jack-gutmann/) is a Real-Time VFX and Technical Artist based in Vienna. He specializes in building visually distinctive effects systems, bending technology to serve strong artistic direction. Best known for Path Out, created with Causa Creations, Jack has since led VFX pipelines on stylized and narrative-driven titles. He has collaborated with industry professionals such as Rami Ismail and Castpixel on projects including Australia Did It, translating ambitious creative visions into production-ready scalable effects. Beyond production, he hosts The Generalists, a podcast dedicated multidisciplinary thinking in game development. His work aims to demystify high-level craft and creative decision-making in an industry that often overemphasizes narrow specialization. His talks explore how team composition, cultural perspective, and technical infrastructure shape originality in games, and why diversity is the next driver of innovation. **After some announcement we will look at at least 2 games** \* [Canvas of Thoughts](https://store.steampowered.com/app/4348770/Canvas_of_Thoughts/) / Ronja \* World Tree Defender: Seedlings of Yggdrasil / Lukas Plazovnik Can‘t wait.

Things to know before playing: Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls; We play Tuesday Night Football (outdoor only) . We play 90 minutes (kick off is at 20:30, and we meet at least 15 minutes before for a warm up phase). Post-Corona football matches are most likely between 14-16 and 28-32 players. If you would like to join please bring artificial turf shoes (like the ones for indoor turf) and shin pads (not mandatory but definitely recommendable). All I ask is that you come with a good mood, be respectful to everyone, and pay online using the link below.

We need to respect current regulations in Vienna, Austria. The main priorities are to have fun and being safe. The drinks are relatively free after the game in the local pub, served to those who have shown fantastic football fair-play skills. We will confirm the location, the pitches, and the dressing room numbers via our dedicated Football WhatsApp group/s. Keep an eye out for the group messages. See you all soon. Sorin SMS/ WhatsApp +43 6764276984 (please ask to be added to our football groups). We will probably need to confirm your presence if you are coming for the first or second time. Important management rule: **\> "No shows" are penalized with 10€ fee\. Please remove your name from the list at least SIX\!\!\! \(6\) HOURS before the event\.** Book a place via FootballExperiences.NET using this link [FOOTxp](https://footballexperiences.net/kickaball/) One small final note: Please avoid trying to take justice in your hands. If someone is talking bad, complaining, insulting someone, fouling on purpose or committing the usual football shenanigans, please let the organizers know. Measures will be taken, we assure you. Any misbehavior on your part, such as responding in an obscene way, fighting, or leaving the pitch is not a practical and diplomatic way of resolving the issues (it tends to create more tension and cause more problems). Let’s be respectful and mature and try to enjoy the game we all love. That’s why we’re all here. Get to know people from all over the world and have fun! Thank you. Sorin

**Confidence in Bloom: How Creativity Builds Confidence** What happens when creativity becomes an intentional practice? In this month’s Confidence Lab, we’ll gather at **Petals That Inspire: The Flourish Studio** for an evening exploring the connection between creativity and confidence. How making with our hands, engaging our senses, and allowing space for expression can shift how we see ourselves and what we believe is possible. Our featured speaker, **Amanda Lorenzetti**, owner of Petals That Inspire, will share how creativity has shaped her own confidence journey and why creative environments play such a powerful role in well-being, resilience, and personal growth. Drawing from her work leading an experience-driven floral studio and a community-centered workforce development program, Amanda will reflect on creativity as both a personal and collective catalyst. Amanda will also guide us through a **hands-on floral design experience**, creating a fresh arrangement in a wide mouth mason jar. No prior floral experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to engage the process. This evening is an invitation to slow down, create, and reconnect with the part of yourself that grows through care, attention, and imagination. You’ll leave with a floral arrangement to take home, and a deeper understanding of how confidence can be cultivated through creative practices. **Featured Speaker: Amanda Lorenzetti** Amanda Lorenzetti is the owner and founder of [Petals That Inspire](https://www.petalsthatinspire.com/) and The Flourish Studio, a social enterprise florist based in Columbus, Ohio. She brings more than a decade of experience in wedding and event sales, paired with hands-on expertise in floral and event design. Amanda’s connection to the floral industry began early, spending time alongside her godmother, a professional florist on the East Coast. After earning her business degree, she returned to her hometown in Connecticut to work as a floral and event designer, blending creative artistry with strong operational and client-focused skills. In 2020, Amanda returned to the floral industry with a renewed purpose, driven by a desire to build a business rooted in creativity, community impact, and sustainability. During this pivotal time, she founded Petals That Inspire—an innovative floral concept that reimagines the traditional florist model by combining event florals, workshops, and experiential offerings with a mission-centered approach to workforce development. Today, Petals That Inspire is a thriving social enterprise known for its thoughtful design, educational experiences, and commitment to empowering young adults facing barriers to entry in the workforce. Amanda is deeply passionate about building businesses that are both profitable and purpose-driven, and she leverages her strong business acumen to create a scalable & sustainable model that inspires creativity while giving back to the community. **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*

Come assist Van Buren Shelter (https://ymcacolumbus.org/locations/vanburen) staff in serving dinners and cleaning up on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Dinner for the women is 5-6 pm and for the families is 6:15-7:15 pm. There is ample free parking available in the shelter's lot. The recommended area to park is in green in the image above. There will be a new entrance for the time being. We are asking all volunteers to enter through the Donation Dock door, the orange mark on the image above. This door is located between the Single Adults and Family Shelter. You will see 2 large garage doors with a large green trash compactor in the center. Please head to the closest garage door to the building wall, with a ramp leading up. There, you will see a door with a sign stating instructions on how to enter the building. Please ring the doorbell, and a staff member will come and escort you into the building. If a staff member takes longer than 5 minutes, please call the front desk at 614-689-2020. This is a new process for us, and we do not want to keep you waiting! We appreciate your patience as we navigate this temporary change. The shelter needs a volunteer count the day before the event so sign-up ends Monday at 4:50 PM. Afterwards some of us go to the Omnipresent Atheists Weekly Meetup in progress to have a bit to eat or drink (http://www.meetup.com/omnipresentatheists/). Volunteers must be 14 or older. Since we will be working around families, the YMCA does not permit volunteering by individuals with convictions for violent or sexual crimes. The YMCA reserves the right to run background checks on volunteers. For questions, comment on this page or contact: Andrew, awhit12@yahoo.com, (614)937-5802 (cell). Please let Andrew know if you volunteer anytime other than our COUNT events so that he can count your hours toward our service record.
