- **Event Name**: The People's Forum: Why is there something instead of nothing?
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 11 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Wed, 11 Mar, 2026 at 08:00 pm
- **Event Description**: It’s one of philosophy’s oldest and most unsettling questions:

Why does anything exist at all?
Why isn’t there simply… nothing?

This month’s Forum is a deep dive into the ultimate “why.” We’ll explore how philosophers across history have wrestled with existence itself, what it means to be, whether “nothing” is even possible, and what this question reveals about reality, meaning, and us.

No lectures. No pop quizzes. No need to have read anything in advance.

Just thoughtful conversation, good drinks, and a room full of people willing to sit with a big, strange, beautiful question.

Come curious.
Leave existentially stirred (in a good way). ?

What to Expect
?️ A 30 to 40-minute talk followed by audience Q&amp;A
? Engaging discussion with fellow curious minds
? A relaxed, welcoming space to think big while sipping a drink
? No purchase necessary
? Outside food welcome (bring your dinner and join in!)
⏰ Seats are limited — arrive early to snag a spot
