About this Event

Looking for an in-person Valentine’s Day writing workshop in Portland that offers something different?

Love, Felt is a sensory-based creative writing workshop exploring love beyond romance—through care, connection, memory, and lived experience. This session is open to the wider community and welcomes both writers and non-writers.

Using the five senses as creative entry points, participants will engage in guided meditation and writing prompts designed to be grounding, reflective, and accessible. Sharing is optional, and time is provided to work with what you’ve written and, if desired, share and create a small keepsake.

This workshop is designed as a thoughtful alternative to traditional Valentine’s plans and can stand alone or complement the rest of your day.
