International Analog Day Celebration

Let's celebrate International Analog Day together! Turn off those digital devices and pretend like it's 1990.

The Vibe: Chill, welcoming, and joyful. You can stop in at any point from 11-4pm to hang with rad community members. Bring your own analog project (knit, embroidery, journal, puzzle, board game, whatever) OR join in activities that are taking place already. The idea is to disconnect from the digital and focus on community connection and analog adventures. No stress. All fun. Maybe you can learn something new!

Hosts: Shannon Downey aka Badass Cross Stitch, Lauren Venell owner of Maydel, Greta Johnsen of Happy to Be Here Podcast, Artist Chai Wolfman, and Artist Maggie Hendricks

Fun Features:

• Greta is hosting a book exchange. Bring one/Take one.
• Maydel is launching their free craft supply library. There will be a tiny ribbon cutting (adorable). If you have craft supplies to donate, bring them with and we will fill the new free library
• Chai Wolfman is going to debut her new Found Painting Project mural which means YOU can get a piece of art to distribute out into the world for others to find. This is such a fun project to be a part of!!
• Shannon and Maggie will teach you how to make stuff with fabric and floss if you feel inclined to try something new
• There will be snacks. Please feel free to bring some snacks too.
• We will be listening to Shannon's amazing mid-90's CD collection on her adorable new CD player

The event is FREE and open to the public.
