Journal in the Park - South Bay

​Bring your journal, a blanket, and come journal with us ✍️

​Journal in the Park is a relaxed outdoor journaling session - a chance to slow down, get something out of your head and onto the page, and connect with other people who are building a writing or reflection practice.

​How it works

​There are two ways to show up, both are completely welcome in the same space:

​Free write - no prompt, no agenda, just you and whatever's on your mind

​Prompted - we'll share an optional prompt at the start for anyone who wants a place to begin

​After the journaling hour, we break into small groups to share — not to read aloud verbatim, but to reflect on what came up, what you noticed, what you're sitting with. No pressure to share anything specific.

​What to bring

​→ A journal or notebook and a pen or laptop or phone (for digital journals)

​→ A blanket or something to sit on

​→ Snacks if you like

​Timeline

​Who's this for?

​Anyone who wants to build a journaling or reflection practice, or who just needs an afternoon to write. You don't need to be a writer, you just need a journal and somewhere to sit.

​A note on RSVPs and the waitlist 🙏

​We manage capacity so everyone who comes has a good experience:

• ​If you're on the waitlist, please wait for your approval before heading over. We open spots as they become available and you'll get an email when you're in.

• ​If your plans change, please update your RSVP, it means someone on the waitlist gets your spot. We really appreciate it 🫶
