Discover the fanzine as a free, cheap and creative way to tell your own stories: drawing, writing and experimenting, alone and in group exercises, around a shared theme.
A free film meet-up: watch the classic 'Grease' together, then join an open conversation about it led by psychologists from the local health centre.
Put on a blindfold and travel without moving: a free immersive show built from soundscapes, live music, actors, smells and textures, where every spectator becomes part of the story. Created by Carlos Pontini.

Almost all of them. The 3 upcoming programs on this page are public library events in Madrid; most need no booking and no library card. Workshops with limited places say so on the official page.
Yes. Most people at library book clubs, talks and language cafés come alone, there is a host who starts the conversation, and nobody asks why you are there. Arrive a few minutes early.
Usually it is free: bring photo ID and a proof of address (a rental contract or a utility bill) to any branch. Rules differ per library, so check the branch page before you go.
