THIS ACTIVITY IS CANCELED. Please check the Wellbeing WhatsApp Chat for more information.
Sexuality Talk Aperitivo…Sexuality is a fundamental part of our well-being, deeply connected to both our physical, mental and emotional health. The way we experience it is shaped by our upbringing, cultural values, and past experiences—often influenced by taboos that still persist today. Gaining awareness of our personal and cultural beliefs is the first step toward embracing our desires and expressing our sexuality with confidence
Join us for an enlightening workshop on self-discovery, featuring an initial moment of reflection and conversation during the first hour and then a hands-on session with Daniela Tena, a presenter from Yorokobi. This is a safe and open space to learn, ask questions, and celebrate pleasure without judgment. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of your own sexuality!
Please RSVP below by Wednesday, May 28th as this workshop is limited to 15 participants. This meeting is free for IWCT members and non-members. However, a contribution to ZeroTre, IWCT’s charity, is appreciated.

Book Club

Join us for this month’s Book Club presentation on Tuesday, May 27th. The book selected for our May presentation is “Wide Sargasso Sea” by Jean Rhys (1966/ 176 pages)
Wide Sargasso Sea, a masterpiece of modern fiction, was Jean Rhys’s return to the literary centre stage. This mesmerising work introduces us to Antoinette Cosway, a sensual and protected young woman who is sold into marriage to the prideful Mr. Rochester. Rhys portrays Cosway amidst a society so driven by hatred, so skewed in its sexual relations, that it can literally drive a woman out of her mind. Presented by: Ornella Cerutti
So, mark your calendars and plan to join us on Tuesday, May 27th. We meet at the Circolo dei Lettori in Via Giambattista Bogino 9 at 10:30 AM.

Book Club
2025-05-06 10:30 - 12:30 | Circolo dei Lettori, Via Bogino 9, Torino, Italy
Join us for this month’s Book Club presentation on Tuesday, May 6th. (But the date may change because of the holiday. So check the Book Club WhatsApp Chat for any changes.) The book this month is “A Gentleman in Moscow” by Amor Towles (2016/ 480 pages). Presented by: David Pickup
A Gentleman in Moscow immerses us in another elegantly drawn era with the story of Count Alexander Rostov. When, in 1922, he was deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, the count was sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Rostov, an indomitable man of erudition and wit, has never worked a day in his life, and must now live in an attic room while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian history are unfolding outside the hotel’s doors. Unexpectedly, his reduced circumstances provide him a doorway into a much larger world of emotional discovery. Brimming with humour, a glittering cast of characters, and one beautifully rendered scene after another, this singular novel casts a spell as it relates the count’s endeavour to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be a man of purpose.
So, mark your calendars and plan to join us. We meet at the Circolo dei Lettori in Via Giambattista Bogino 9 at 10:30 AM.
