Join Jane Austen’s House for a live, online event on Blue Monday. With the world increasingly in turmoil, we’ll be gathering online for a free event that brings our wonderful community of writers, readers and thinkers together online.
Bring your notebook or laptop, bring tea or coffee, draw the curtains against the night or throw them open to a new day – wherever you are in the world, join us to sit with friends and like-minded Austen fans for an hour of gentle, simple creativity.
As you join, we’ll offer you entry into one of two groups – you can commit to one of them for the full session or feel free to move between them and enjoy them both!
Journaling – in this group, led by our Director Lizzie Dunford, will be a session of simple, self-reflective journaling. Write whatever you want – there’s no need to share or discuss. Just soak up the community atmosphere and the support from other lovers of great literature.
Pencil Calligraphy – this group will be led by fellow Austen lover and creative calligrapher Laura Edralin of Laura Letters Life. Discover the quiet joy of pencil calligraphy. In this session, we’ll explore how mindful mindful mark-making, letterforms, and finding your creative flow, can calm the mind, steady the breath and bring a sense of presence to your day. All you need is a pencil and paper — and a little time just for you. Perfect for beginners and seasoned creatives alike.
Tickets for this event are free but booking is essential!
