Grown ups need recess too: put yourself on the calendar.
It's time for Recess! A few hours to step away from the to-do list, try something new, connect with other women, and have some fun.
For our very first Recess, we're bringing together the perfect mix of holiday experiences designed to spark creativity, connection, and a little seasonal magic.
Here's what's in store:
Holiday Mixology: Shake things up with a hands-on cocktail or mocktail experience featuring festive seasonal flavors.
Charcuterie Cup Workshop: Get creative with Kat from The Little Grazing Cart as you build your own delicious charcuterie creation.
DIY Dried Fruit Garland: Create a beautiful, natural holiday garland using dried citrus, cranberries, and greenery to bring a little homemade cheer into your home.
And because no girls' night is complete without good food and great company, we'll have plenty of opportunities to sip, snack, laugh, and connect along the way.
Everything is planned for you. Your ticket includes all three experiences and the materials you'll need. Just show up, settle in, and enjoy.
Come with friends or come on your own. You'll be welcomed either way.
Permission granted. Come play.

What is
Remember when recess was the best part of the day? A chance to take a break, reset, and just be yourself? We're bringing that feeling back, but this time, for women.
Recess is a community built around connection, creativity, and giving yourself permission to take a little time just for you. Through thoughtfully curated experiences, we're creating opportunities for women to step away from their everyday responsibilities, try something new, meet new people, and reignite that inner spark.
We're also passionate about bringing women together to support women-owned businesses, because when we lift each other up, everyone wins.
No expectations. No pressure. Just good people, new experiences, and a reminder that making time for yourself should be part of life, not a luxury.
It's your turn to come out and play.
