Step into a quieter kind of story—one told in spines, stacked pages, and the soft hush of a room well-loved. At this cozy, creative night at The Archive, you’ll begin with an expertly pre-drawn watercolor template of a dream bookshelf—warm, layered, and full of charm (think ladders, worn armchairs, and shelves waiting to be filled). We’ll guide you through simple watercolor techniques (truly simple—no experience needed), and then you’ll bring your shelf to life, one detail at a time. Will your shelves be color-coded or beautifully unhinged? Will your favorites sit front and center, or be tucked away like secrets? A sleepy cat in the chair? A stack that’s just about to topple? Every shelf tells a story. This one is yours. 📅 Wednesday, July 22nd 🕰 7:00 PM (Doors open at 6:30PM) 📍 The Archive What’s included with your $65 ticket: An expertly pre-drawn watercolor bookshelf template Easy, beginner-friendly watercolor instruction A watercolor paint set and brushes to take home A themed specialty spritz (with a non-alcoholic option available) Discounted wine for the evening Come solo or bring your favorite reading companion.
