GSN Stammtisch
Regular meet-ups exclusively for students at the GSN are organized by the Community Building Team monthly. "Stammtisch" stands for a traditional German recurring social get-together, where you can chat and meet new people. It offers an informal setting for exchange (anything from academic, cultural, to personal) combined with food and drinks. A new location is chosen for every event, to make sure everyone can join.
Contact Emily Russell or Samantha Ho if you would like to join and/or support them in organizing.
GSN Art club
Already having organised several art exhibits in the past years, the art club aims to collectively embrace creative expression within the GSN community at all artistic levels - an initiative about artist-scientists, not necessarily science art. There are no limits to what you can contribute, be it painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, digital art, mixed media, textiles - you name it.
Contact gsnartists@gmail.com to indicate your willingness to support the club and interest for future events.
GSN Film club
The idea of movie nights is for people to come together every last Wednesday of the month, and watch and discuss movies from different times and cultures. We intend to show movies that are not mainstream and generally not Hollywood, but movies representing different cultures and productions of historical importance.
When: every last Wednesday of the month
Where: LMU Biocenter, seminar room B 03.015, 3rd floor

Classical music events in Munich
For GSN students interested in classical music (or those who would like to discover it), a mailing list for concert recommendations has been set up. Munich has two world-class orchestras and frequent recitals by renowned soloists, offering events almost every week.
