---------------------------------------------
Of course I can. But I am not very well versed in CSS so I will _try_ to look
into it later, unless someone more proficient steps in meanwhile :)
> WEBSITE - Add a dedicated Events page

> This is a proposed "Events" section on the Cassandra website, listing
> (approved) events as small cards with a picture, a short description and a
> link to the external event website.
> The motivation behind this idea, which was discussed briefly on the
> [cassandra-website|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-website]
> Slack channel as well, is twofold: on one hand, it is desirable to provide
> this information to website visitors, which helps building the community
> through dedicated events; on the other hand, the Cassandra blog is
> preferrably not 'clogged' with too many event announcements so that it can
> retain its primary "technical" role.
> I tried to create a page that blends in with the rest of the website
> experience, but while doing so I had to make some choices. In particular, I
> propose an icon for the section (a circus tent) that I hope conveys a
> "playful but not silly" message; moreover, I added the "Events" page to the
> "Community" navbar menu to avoid adding another menu, even though all other
> "Community" menu items are from the community page.
> Also I am aware that the buttons alignment on the cards is imperfect. I blame
> my (very limited) css knowledge, this is of course something to improve if
> ever this draft gets accepted.
>
> The PR (which probably should be taken as a WIP, for the aforementioned
> button alignment issues if nothing else) is here:
> https://github.com/apache/cassandra-website/pull/185
