FREE Silent Tea + Book Club: April 2nd
FREE Silent Tea + Book Club: April 2nd
⭐️ FREE TEA EVENT ⭐️
Our first Silent Tea on March 5th was well received so we’re doing it again!
We’re teaming up with our good friend Tim Kime to offer a free tea and silent reading event at his art studio at The Monroe Street Arts Walk in Brookland.
Origin:
I stumbled upon a post last year about an accidental silent book club and thought: “What a great idea!” I’ve been plotting since last November to figure out a space to host this, and casually mentioned it to Tim Kime. He immediately offered his eclectic studio space without hesitation!
Why?
Given that many people have lost their jobs or are just feeling anxiety, the first ever Silent Tea Club is open to anyone who wants to come by to be with others and read a book silently without distraction or the pressure to talk. In fact, there is no talking at this event!
Guidelines:
1. It’s 100% silent. Think of it like the Quiet Car on Amtrak or a library. That means no talking, venting, sharing, or chit chat so that others aren’t disturbed. 🤐
2. No cell phones. No texting. Nada. If you can’t be without your device for 90min for whatever reason, it’s ok, but this may not be your cup of tea. So please know that all phones are off. No pings either. 📵
3. We love kids, but this is for adults only.🙏🏻
4. We may have some very light background music but we’ll test that out to see if it’s a distraction. 🎼
5. Bring a book, journal, knitting and we’ll provide the tea for you to drink as you enjoy the peace of quiet. 📙
•When: Wed, April 2nd • 3pm — 430pm
•Where: Tim Kime Art Studio • The Arts Walk
• Metro: Red Line Metro to Brookland/CUA and his studio is right on the corner of the Arts Walk. Easy!
We have space for about 10 people and you can reserve your spot below! We’ll be there and we hope you will join us.
