Learn planning skills for your days, months, and year
About this Event

Join Shasta Garcia of Play Ethic Studio for an all analog workshop that can help with your digital days. Shift into the fall feeling by building a custom planner and thought keeper that adapts to your needs with popular dot journaling techniques. Find the fun and creativity in the skill of planning. You’ll learn tools to organize and reflect on your days, months, and year. 


Analog journaling can flex for your seasons of life. It’s a check-in tool for calendaring, productivity, time management, note-taking, keeping organized, mindfulness, gratitude, life reflection, tasks, goals, or habit tracking. Keep what fits and skip the rest.


For 10 years Shasta has been remixing journal methods and collecting analog tools. She breaks down the core elements while teaching visual concepts that aid in planning, organization, and reflection. 


A variety of tools and materials will be provided for use in the class. Students will take home a dotted grid notebook and reference zine.
