Join us for Morning Pages: Paper Plant Co.’s monthly journaling club! 

Start your day with a cozy, intimate gathering for your fellow analog lovers! Each month, we’ll gather around the table in our Highland Park location to slow down, put pen to paper, and connect over a shared love of the written word.

No experience necessary. Come as you are and bring your favorite journal, a pen you love, and an open heart.

Each meetup is centered around a seasonal theme and a few gentle prompts to inspire introspection and creativity.

July's prompts will be inspired by long, sunlit, unhurried summer days, the kind that invite you to put down your phone and savor the moment.

Grounding moment and community introductions

📝 Guided journaling: there will be themed prompts and journaling supplies (e.g., washi, stickers, stamps) for you to use!
