If you’re aged 18–30 and looking to connect with others\, share ideas\, listen deeply\, or express yourself creatively\, this evening is for you. No experience with Buddhism is required — just an openness to conversation and connection. Join us at the Dublin Buddhist Centre for an informal night of music\, stories\, and conversations that matter.  Alternative Friday Night runs once a month on a Friday evening. Come as you are\, bring a friend\, or just drop in and see what unfolds. This Friday’s theme is: Wabi Sabi: The Art of Impermanence The Japanese sensibility of wabi sabi invites us to find beauty in impermanence and imperfection. As part of this exploration\, bring along something broken\, worn\, unfinished or meaningful — a piece of clothing\, a cup\, a work of art\, or something that simply captures the theme (and any materials you may need\, if possible!). \n \n \n \n \n \n WhenFriday 21st August 20267pm  – 9pm WhereDublin Buddhist CentreUnit 5\, Liberty CornerJames Joyce StreetDublin\, D01 N5H6 \n \n \n \n \n \n For anyone between 18 and 30 years of age.
