Come for the art, stay for the 🪄 whimsy & connection 🧚🏼‍♀️

Simple delights that make life rich

A delightful Friday night filled with phone free analog creation time, thought-provoking ideas, and community chats!

Be reminded of how good it feels to make something with your own two hands in the amazing company of other creatives and art dabblers.

This is a restorative space to leave perfectionist pressures at home (swseet relief!) and relish in remembering how fulfilling and relaxing it is to chill out, giggle, create, and enjoy life with each other in community.

When: Monthly on Third Fridays at 6-8pm

Where: The 5th House, 16017 Detroit Ave. Lakewood, OH

Price: $30

Duration: 2 hours

Millennial nostalgia meets modern whimsy

You can look forward to:

  • A cozy hour of quiet art making: bring the supplies you’ve been wanting to play with and make something for funzies

  • A facilitated and inspiring community gab-n-chat with Krystal, Intuitve Alignment Coach & Artist, on the topic of rinsing out the effects of a highly digitized life by getting back to our creativity, in-person community, and reconnecting to that soul spark inside 

  • A variety of comfy nooks and beautiful areas to create in, tea, light snacks, along with a vibey way to spend your Friday night with some sweet, like-hearted new-n-familiar friends 

Helpful Things to Know:

  • We’ll be creating on the floor with bolsters, blankets, and soft rugs available to cozy up. If you need seating, please bring a lightweight chair to make yourself comfortable.

  • Bring the art supplies you have on hand that call to you to enjoy. You’re highly encouraged to use what you have on hand already as there is zero pressure to buy new supplies.

  • Our beautiful location is a yoga and healing space (not an art studio) so please keep this in mind when selecting art supplies to ensure the space is tended to with care.

  • The location requires climbing 1-4 flights of stairs depending on where you cozy up for the event.

  • Water and tea will be available, along with light snacks.

  • A notebook and pen could be helpful to capture any helpful notes, inspired ideas, or the like!

  • This is a trauma-informed, queer-friendly, neurodivergent-friendly event. You’re welcome to bring headphones, additional layers, blankets, and anything else that will make you feel comfortable to enjoy and all activites will be optional at your discretion.

  • With us sharing a smaller space, please be mindful in case you are feeling unwell. If you need to stay home and rest, please know that there will be more chances to attend in the future on a monthly basis! Thank you for your community care in this way.

  • Need additional accomodations? You are more than welcome to email krystal@krystalalexandria.com should you need/desire any additional accommodations or feel free to send any questions you may have.

A huge THANK YOU to Heather Love of Sravana Integrative Healing & The 5th House for the warm invitation to host this event, along with the lovely encouragement to host more Soften & Create gatherings in the coming months! Stay tuned!
