- Second Sunday: Writing & WeedingHayes Valley Art Works, San Francisco, CA
Join us Sundays for Writing & Weeding!
Join us for Writing & Weeding!
We've all had times when we just can't seem to figure out how to the words out. Sitting with other writers in the garden really helps break writer's block. In our unique garden setting, you can also literally weed out your thoughts by taking some time to pull weeds in a community garden. Getting our hands in the dirt can sometimes inspire creative flow. (Note, we recommend you bring your own gardening gloves.)
We are at the gallery and garden at Hayes Valley Art Works - 295 Oak Street at Octavia - writing and pulling some actual weeds!
We usually meet at the tables by the gate at Lily / Octavia. In damp weather, we may meet in the gallery in the converted shipping container with the red and black mural 295 Oak Street corner of Octavia. I
Please note, we do not have heat in the gallery and run on solar power, so bring your laptop charged and dress appropriately for the weather!Writers are welcome to sit in either south or north garden, or the gallery, both are between Page and Oak on the east side of Octavia.
We suggest bringing any devices fully charged as we don't have outlets or a restroom. We recommend stoppping at Mercury Cafe across the street at Page and Octavia - they have a restroom and great food and drinks we recommend stopping in there on your way over for a beverage and use the facilities if needed.
If possible, or in bad weather, we will also open our Zoom meeting but this is not always an option due to internet access at the garden.
