The Joy Chapters: Chapter One

Collecting Little Joys

Create. Connect. Notice the joy in the everyday.

The Joy Chapters is a new mini-retreat series created for women who need a little space to pause, create, and reconnect—with themselves, with one another, and with the things that make life feel meaningful.

Our first chapter, Collecting Little Joys, invites you to slow down and notice the small, beautiful moments that often get overlooked in the busyness of everyday life.

Join us for a cozy morning of art journaling, creativity, conversation, and brunch at Artist Workshop in Lincoln. You’ll be guided through a creative art journaling experience designed to help you reflect on and collect the little things that bring you joy.

And because creativity is even better when shared, you’ll have plenty of time to connect with other women while enjoying a delicious brunch from Rebel Hen Cafe.

Your morning includes:

  • A guided art journaling workshop

  • A 48-page art journal from Funto Art

  • Paint brushes and creative supplies

  • A completed art journal page to take home

  • Delicious brunch

  • Time for creativity, reflection, and connection
