Soft Hours - Offline Hours #1

FAQs

• Is this actually going to work without a host?

  There is no host, facilitator or programme running the session. You check in, find the room, pick a spot and do your thing.

  And honestly, we think it works just fine that way. You don’t need someone to tell you when to read, craft, journal or stare into space. The whole point is to give you the space to do exactly what you want, at your own pace.

• Is this a phone-free event?

  Nope. We’re not collecting your phones at the door. 📱
  The idea is simply to spend a few hours being present and doing something offline. Reading, crafting, journaling, drawing, or whatever you enjoy.

• What actually happens?

  Nothing! And that’s the point. There’s no programme, host, workshop or scheduled activity. Find a spot, get comfortable and do your thing.

• Do I need to bring something?

  Bring whatever you’d like to spend your time doing; a book, journal, craft project, sketchbook, knitting, crossword, etc. Or just come and stare into space. We support that too.

• Can I come alone?

  Coming alone and talking to strangers is a big part of Soft Hours, but you’re just as welcome to take it at your own pace, whether that means stepping out to have a conversation at the cafe or simply enjoying the space quietly.

• Can I come with friends?

  Of course. Just remember: this is a quiet space, so maybe don't turn it into a group presentation about your weekend. The cafe is just outside should you want to bring the chats out!

• How long do I have to stay?

  Your session is either 9am–12pm or 12pm–4pm. You don’t have to stay for the entire session.

  Or, if you’re feeling particularly committed to doing nothing productive, there’s also an option to stay for the whole day.
