English Party - "Crafternoon!" at InĂŠs de SuĂĄrez Park
This month for English Party, April 18th, we are continuing the trend of trying something different.
Since Februaryâs outdoor game afternoon and Marchâs potluck were such successes, we are including some aspects from each of those days:
Weâll have a craft afternoon (or âCrafternoonâ) in InĂŠs de SuĂĄrez Park (I'll share our exact location in the free WhatsApp group), at 1pm. Everyone brings their own picnic blanket to sit on, a packed lunch/snack, and a craft they are working on, to do âcompanionable craftingâ - meaning everyone works on their own project and we sit and talk together at the same time. You could bring a sketchbook to draw, watercolors, knitting/crocheting, even a hand-sewing project. Anything that is portable and not too complicated or messy.
If you are not into crafts but want to come and hang out, you are more than welcome!
I think that this will be a fun, relaxing change of pace from the games we usually play! But donât be surprised if we end up playing a game anyway! ;)
Weâll hang out talking and crafting until around 3:30pm!
Thanks and can't wait to see you there!
Join our free WhatsApp group for exclusive updates, where you can also RSVP before the general public! [https://chat.whatsapp.com/CC7wzkxlnukBzmwaK3ovkM](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CC7wzkxlnukBzmwaK3ovkM)

Welcome to English Party!
The purpose of our group is to encourage fluency in English while having FUN and making friends!
Our main activities rotate between arts and crafts, game nights, and music (YES - singalongs and karaoke!).
* Do you know some English, but freeze up in embarrassment when talking with native English speakers?
* Are you bored with learning English in a traditional classroom setting?
* Do you crave the challenge of communicating in English in real-life?
* Are you a fan of learning by doing?
* Are you an English-speaking traveler or expat looking to connect with locals?
* Do you enjoy Arts and Crafts? Boardgames? Singing? All of the above?
If you answered yes to one or more of the above questions, chances are you'd have a blast with us in our group!
We host both in-person (in Santiago, Chile) and online experiences. We would love to have you join us!
