GET OUT of your HEAD

Événement

**A playful workshop in spontaneity, self expression and connecting with other people.** Do you ever know what you want to say five minutes after the conversation is over? Do you overthink, hold back, wait for the perfect idea, or find yourself planning what you're going to say instead of listening to what's happening? This workshop is about practicing the opposite. Using games and exercises drawn from improv comedy, we'll work on some surprisingly useful skills: **Being present instead of planning ahead.** **Actually listening instead of waiting to speak.** **Making choices before you know whether they're right.** **Expressing yourself clearly.** **Adapting when things don't go according to plan.** **Disagreeing without shutting down.** **Getting more comfortable being seen.** You don't need to be an actor. You don't need comedy experience. And you definitely don't need to arrive believing you're funny (PLEASE). We're using comedy as a playground: a place where the stakes are low enough to experiment, fail, change your mind, make a ridiculous choice and try again. **The goal is to help you become more present, brave, expressive and responsive. The funny tends to show up as a result.** Come alone or bring a friend. Most people arrive not knowing anyone. **No experience necessary. Newcomers welcome.** [$10 in advance (up to 24 hours before the event) / $15 at the door](https://square.link/u/umnNExUN)

CULTURE MONTRÉAL EN CARTE

About this map

Montréal has a rich cultural offering, but information is scattered across websites, social networks, noticeboards and posters. Getting an overview can be difficult. Montréal en culture aims to simplify discovery by bringing cultural activities together in all their variety. The project is also inspired, with some nostalgia, by the weekly calendar of the cultural magazine View, which featured a varied offering, from shows to talks and from popular events to more unconventional activities. Adding a map, Montréal en culture invites you to explore that richness across the city. Still a prototype, this independent project aims to become an essential reference for cultural outings in Montréal.

The site was originally designed for desktop use. A mobile interface is now available.

A broad understanding of culture

The directory takes a broad view of culture: artistic creation, presentation, heritage, knowledge sharing, and opportunities for discovery or participation. It covers the Montréal urban agglomeration, including its associated islands. Its scope develops with the sources and activities recorded.
