Virtual parallel play time TONIGHT 6/16!

Come co-create with me and other creative friends on Zoom as we wind down for the summer season

🗓️ Mon, June 16 from 7:15 to 8:30pm
📍On Zoom | Free for paid subscribers to Keeping Creative Time

Parallel play is not just for kids—it’s a powerful antidote to burnout and an integral part of your whole creative life. Whether you struggle to keep creative commitments to yourself, want to unwind in the evening without the need for social media or TV, or just like the company of creating in the presence of others, you are invited to join Faye and other creative friends from Keeping Creative Time who are resisting burnout together and quietly practicing their joy.

How it works:

If you’re unfamiliar with parallel play, it’s two or more people in the same space independently playing or working on an activity. Kids do it all the time, and adults can benefit from it too.

Schedule

7:15-7:30pm: Zoom room opens with community check in
7:30-8:15pm: Parallel playtime begins (45 minutes)
8:15-8:30pm: Zoom room closes with community check out

You are welcome to join at any time and stay for as long as you can.

Some possible parallel play activities include:

• reading / writing / journaling

• knitting / crochet / embroidery

• coloring / drawing / painting

• jigsaw puzzles / crossword puzzles / Legos

• cooking / baking / menu planning

• playing a musical instrument

• or any craft you can do with your hands (woodworking, basket weaving, jewelry making, sewing, letter writing—there are no limits!)

The link to join is for paid subscribers, so it’s behind the paywall. Paid subscriptions start at $4/mo (for an annual subscription), and help me do my creative work as a writer, editor, and holistic librarian for Library of Care.

Come join us on this calm corner of the internet. We are waiting for you!
