Session 01
Blind Datewith a Book
Pick a wrapped book from the table using only a mood and a coffee note. Unwrap it, read the first page aloud, and tell the table what it made you feel. One of the wrapped books is our own.

The season
The calendar
Three Saturdays, three formats, one theme each. Pick one, or come to all of them.
More dates will land here.
Session 02
Pages &Passports
We announce a theme and a shelf of books about it: memoirs, novels, essays, in the spirit of Into the Wild. You come to read, argue and swap ideas about why people leave, what they look for and what they bring back.
Session 03
Writethe Cup
Write one complete story in 100 words or fewer from a small, concrete prompt: the last bus home, grandmother’s kitchen at five o’clock, a Friday couscous gone wrong, the call you did not pick up. The best pieces go on Atlasque, our blog.
Come to all three. Get stamped.
Every session adds a stamp. Fill the card and the reward is yours.
