**ALL YOU CAN CREATE** is the perfect offer for anyone who wants to be creative without committing to just one technique. Inspired by the "All You Can Eat" principle, you can try out and combine different creative workshops all day long, setting your own pace. Whether painting, crafting, embroidering, or decorating – at **All You Can Create,** your creativity takes center stage. In a relaxed and open atmosphere, you have the opportunity to choose from a variety of **creative techniques** and realize your own projects. This program is suitable for both beginners and experienced creative individuals. You don't need to be perfect at anything – the only important thing is that you enjoy creating something. ### What can you do at All You Can Create? **Decoding** involves decorating everyday objects like picture frames, cases, mirrors, jewelry boxes, etc., with a creamy paste and playful details. This technique is particularly popular because it delivers quick, visible results and leaves plenty of room for imagination. **Coloring** allows you to relax and fully concentrate on colors and shapes. Whether using templates or freehand designs, coloring helps you unwind and is ideal for creative breaks between other projects **.** When **designing jewelry,** you create your own accessories. Whether bracelets, necklaces, or earrings – here you can combine colors, shapes, and materials to create something personal. **Punch needle** offers a relaxing textile technique where you create textured patterns and small works of art using yarn and a needle. This technique is easy to learn and ideal for beginners. We also **offer nail services** . For hygiene reasons, we ask that you bring your **own nail file and nail polish** . ### A rule like at an all-you-can-eat event. Just like with "All You Can Eat," there's only **one important rule at All You Can Create** : **You must complete your project.** If a project appears incomplete, an **additional fee of 10 CHF** will be charged. This rule helps ensure that the creative space is used fairly for everyone and motivates participants to consciously complete their projects. ### When does All You Can Create take place? **Between 13:00 and 17:00** ### Who is All You Can Create for? **For everyone!** Children, teenagers, and adults are all welcome. All You Can Create is ideal for anyone who wants to unwind, be creative, try new things, and create something without pressure. Whether alone, with friends, or as a creative break – here you'll find space for ideas and inspiration.

Want **more info** than our Summary above? Then please read below: . . . . . **WHY?** we ❤️ **uniting people** and building **community** while having **fun!** We truly believe that **fun meaningful offline connections** to new & existing friends makes us truly happy and healthy! Our community meets **every 2 Fridays** in a **homey,** caring and **welcoming** "come as you are" environment ! . **WHAT is this event?** We are not a "party or drinks" meetup, nor we follow a "forced" process and agenda. Instead, we are a **Connection Community** inspired by Greek village cafes and Swiss Stammtisch — a welcoming environment where neighbours gathered as equals to share stories and build lasting friendships. We meet in a "**fixed-rhythm**" every 2 Fridays in a **homey** & **lovingly-hosted space** so you can connect with new and familiar faces. We provide **several optional activities** to help you **connect** with others—so you're free to **explore what resonates** with you! Together these activities create a unique **Connection** **Event.** . **HOW? Today's activities** are: * **🥳new comer area** (never was easier to spark a conversation, with ice-breakers, optional for first time attendees) * **🤣fun social games** (like "cards against humanity" and more - read game names below) * **🧘mindful games** (no small talk, connect deeper, from [The School of Life](https://www.theschooloflife.com/shop/?_product_type=games-card-sets) \- read game names below\) * **👯 20:00 - 20:30 Speed-friending** (glass room on ground floor) guaranteed process to meet spark new fun discussions and meet new people - with moderator) * **🙀 20:30 - 21:00** **Team Versus Team Playful games** (glass room on ground floor) to stop being so serious, stop adulthood and be silly ! * **🕺 22:00 - 00:00** **Dance Party** (glass room on ground floor) lets dance the week away with reggaeton & hits * 🏭 beautiful **homey** industrial location in downtown ZH * 🇩🇪**German-speaking** area (falls du nur Deutsch sprechen möchtest) * **🏠 chill-zones** in private quiet rooms (if you want to talk or play games in quietness) * 👬 or simply **hang-out** and **meet new & old friends** **without** a process ❤️ . . . **TIPS on how to connect:** * **Look out for a good smile/vibe** in a person/group of 2-3 people and say "Hi my name is xxx, can I join?". * **Try something different** (person, game, table, activity) often until you find **fun** **quality connection.** We have a lot of activities * **Ask** **Support:** we understand going out to meet friends can be a stretch. We make this easy with a fun and safe event. Also you can ask for help from our clearly communicated (see photos of this event) "**People Connectors**" who can help you discreetly to connect with others * **Invest time**(not quickly just come by) as friendships are an investment * **Come back**: big turnaround, people come randomly at each event, so you never know who you ll meet . . **.** **Some final words:** * **Bravo** **to you** for the courage to go out to meet new people! We know **everyone is unique** \- thats why we got a big new\-comer area\, 4 co\-hosts welcoming and connecting you\, and many activities for you to **choose** from to find what **suits you**! * **Weather?** Event takes place rain or shine, with indoors rooms and outdoors area that is ultra rain-protected * **Coming late?** no problem, we got many people until closing at 00:00 so come whenever! * **Too many attendees?** no problem, we got the space! Also as per the "what" above: you define what makes the event meaningful for you! Furthermore, the co-organisers have one goal: to say hi and introduce you to the event and people (if you want to please ask)! Finally remember: you dont have to talk to everyone, focus in a few people! Less is more! 😃 If you dont know where to start look for a good smile or an activity more matching to you. From there keep on trying people and activities.. * **Why so many options above for connection?** We always have: a first-timer area, Fun social games, Mindful games, ice-breaker questions or simply just talk freely to anyone. Often we add: Speed-friending and a Music jam. We believe **you are unique** and each of us prefers different ways of connection. Also we want to provide an opportunity for everyone to try something new * **Easy and Safe:** We have the whole location reserved for us so its safe to open up and meet new friends (unlike bars in Zürich where people find it strange if strangers talk to them). Christos and volunteers will also help with connection. Read more info below. * **Christos** (see [PHOTO](https://photos.app.goo.gl/pdtVaVGCyDEJ28uE8)) and our co-organisers will be wearing name budges and will aim to **welcome** **everyone.** * more info via our **[LINKS](http://linktr.ee/connectionspace)** * Yes YOU are **good** & **courageous** for looking for new fun connections! * Everyone is in same situation and you ll be surprised how **friendly people** are ❤️ * Come **early** though **later** also ok as many people there **until 00:00** * **It works**!
