The third season of the ball bearing talks begins in May. These monthly outdoor events are free. In 2024 the theme is war and peace. Every Sunday at 4 p.m., conversations will revolve around six questions that explore these aspects of the year's theme.



The ball bearing conversations bring people together to find out a lot about each other in a short time - a kind of speed dating for free exchange about personal stories or current topics. It’s always about gaining new perspectives.
