Craft & Connection on a Friday afternoon!
Are you a book lover? Or do you know someone who simply loves diving into printed stories?
Here is a great opportunity to stitch a unique bookmark that you can keep or gift away!
We are meeting on a Friday afternoon to have some fun with threads, socialize and, of course, talk about books. It would be great if you have a minimum of experience with needles or at least general crafts. Everyone is welcome, especially the diaspora community.
As part of this journey, honouring the community we are part of and the sacredness of co-creation, you are invited to bring an item you wish to offer as a gift or to exchange with another participant. Please try to bring something practical and in good condition, pre-loved items are encouraged. As this session is about bookmarks, you can bring a book you wish to exchange or offer, but not mandatory.
The workshop includes a short meditation, a craft session of 2 hours, and a gentle networking circle.
Proposed timetable:
1:15- 1:30 pm- Arrival
1:30- 1:35 pm- Short meditation and grounding
1:35- 3:35- Craft session with breaks as needed
3:35- 3:50- Exchanging gifts and contacts (only if you wish)
Please do your best to arrive on time.
