Cours discrètes de la Bastille et rencontre avec un artisan du bois
Thu, Aug 13, 12:00 PMPendant des décennies, les marteaux et les scies ont vibré dans des ateliers sur cour qui fleuraient bon le bois frais. Les fabriques de meubles dues à un savoir-faire réputé, avaient envahi tout le faubourg Saint-Antoine. Au moment de la construction de l'opéra Bastille, le sud du 11e, au prix d'une transformation radicale, devint le quartier à la mode, les artisans cédant peu a peu la place aux cafés et boutiques branchés. Dans tout l'arrondissement, des passages dévoilent un Paris secret et encore protégé. Au milieu d'une suite de cours discrètes, une rencontre est prévue avec un des derniers ébénistes du quartier. 15€/pers. Ce prix englobe la participation à la visite d'atelier. RDV à la sortie du métro Breguet-Sabin, en face du No 9 Bd Richard Lenoir Visite en français et anglais si nécessaire ! For years, wood artisans have thrived around the Faubourg Saint Antoine, outside of Bastille square. This tradition, along with furniture stores was still overwhelming until the end of the last century. Slowly, the workshops and manufactories give way to private lofts, bars and startups. Behind the opera, clubs and restaurants swarm, vibrant outposts of one of Paris's favorite night district. Despite the rents rise year after year, and most of the wood related shops have closed down or moved away, the neighborhood is full of beautiful and little known back alleyways and leafy private yards, where the sound of wood work can still be heard. In one of them, a meeting is planned with one of the last wood craftsmen in his amazing workshop. https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/6/6/1/600_452674401.jpeg

Alignement du soleil avec l'arc de Triomphe
Tue, Aug 4, 6:30 PMUne fois par an le soleil s'aligne parfaitement avec l'arc de Triomphe et les champs Élysées L'heure du parfait alignement est 21h14. L'idéal est d'utiliser une longue focale pour grossir l'astre situé en arrière plan mais il est possible de faire a partir du 35-50 mm. Je propose que l'on se retrouve a 20h30 sur la place de la concorde. Puis, chacun pourra remonter a la hauteur adéquate des champs Elysées en fonction de leur focale.

L'Hôtel de Beauvais, cour administrative d'appel de Paris
Thu, Aug 13, 12:00 PM**Visit one of the Marais's most historical mansions** Hotel de Beauvais holds its name from **Catherine de Beauvais**, lady in waiting to the Queen in the 1640's. Nicknamed "One-eye Cathy", she happened to give young **Louis XIV**, his first lessons in bed. The mansion is a sign of the king's gratitude. As a Bavarian Embassy, the building also saw young **Mozart** stay there when he came to Paris at the end of the 18th century, before one of Paris' most notorious gambling place settled there. After the French Revolution, like many Marais mansions, the **Hotel de Beauvais** was stripped from its outstanding decors and parted into numerous flats and small factories. The yard of honor has now been restored and shows a **sumptuous decor** as well as an original and rare layout, due to the lack of space. The visit will also highlight the 13th century **Gothic vaulted cellars** and a **superb elliptic staircase** at the back of the courtyard. The building, has retained **the beautiful staircase of honor** from the 17th century, used by so many famous guests. It now takes people and visitors to the modern rooms of the **City of Paris administrative court of appeal**. Walk in English 25€/person. Includes entry ticket and right of speech.
