Lines to Love (The After School Edition)A Calm, Screen-Free Creative Experience

Thursday, October 9 | 4-5:30 pm | $40 ticket is for 2 people – one adult and one child

Parents: Beware! Research shows that overscheduling your kids in “enrichment” activities can have a harmful effect on their mental health. (See article link below.)

This workshop is an antidote to overscheduling. See, our goal is not enrichment or competition. Our goal is CONNECTION.

In an age of screens, social media angst, and brain rot, we are missing out on the most beautiful aspect of being a parent: being with your child.

Remember what it feels like to just be together with the child you love?

No screens. No rush. No expectations.

Just being side by side.

Being. Doodling. Making up stories. Letting conversation flow, or letting silence hold us together. Letting our imaginations just wander.

Lines to Love is a chance to experience that again.

Lines to Love is a unique workshop with one goal: to create a safe, nurturing space for parents and children to connect.

In this workshop, there are no expectations. No right or wrongs. Just curiosity, doodles, togetherness, and colorful lines.

Using a simple roll of paper and a few drawing materials, you and your young one will be transported into a playful world of co-creation and imagination.

Together, you’ll follow lines, add to each other’s doodles, build whimsical stories, and let the drawing become a pathway to love.

Lines to Love is inspired by a cherished ritual between me and my young son, Lucas.  When Lucas was little, I would just roll out paper and two pens. Together we’d spend hours just doodling, absorbed in the lines, loving the precious time together. Both Lucas and I cherish those drawings as anchor memories of connection and love. (Yes, I have kept them in my memories box!)

Lines to Love is a free flowing togetherness workshop. The creativity is secondary.

It’s a rare chance for you to share precious, screen-free time — to explore wonder, laugh, be quiet, and create something beautiful side by side.

No artistic skills necessary. Just bring your open hearts.

You’ll leave with unforgettable memories and a creation you’ll both cherish all your lives.

  • Ticket is for an adult + 1 child. The event is structured for 1:1 time.
  • Additional members of a family are welcome, but each child should be joined by an adult.
  • All materials will be provided.
  • All phones will be off and set aside for the duration of the session.
  • Space is limited to 15 pairs, so reserve your spots early!

Join us and create unforgettable memories with your child.

We look forward to drawing with you!
