Hi! I'm Nadine and I do crafts for better mental health. When I'm not playing with air dry clay or painting, you can find me reading and trying desperately to reach my Goodreads goal. I wanted to find a way to combine my two loves, so here's my idea.
A bookclub for people that love arts & crafts. Or, an arts & crafts club for readers. It works both ways!
- We'll read a book chosen together as a community
- We'll meet up online to discuss the book
- We'll each create a piece of art based on the book we've just read
You don't have to be a speedy reader, a seasoned artist, a bookworm or a craft expert for this. Just an interest or a curiosity to try is enough!
Are you in?
Our first intro meeting will be held Friday 26th January at 6:30pm GMT.
This will take place online, on our new Discord server!
If you don't have Discord, please take a moment to sign up. If you'd rather not, we'll also run the session as a TikTok live, but there will be less collaboration through this channel.
Once you've done that, click here to nominate a book (or a few) for the first two months!
If you haven't signed up yet, simply join the Discord server and sign up below to receive updates.
Our first newsletter was sent out Wednesday 17th January, click here if you missed it.
FAQs:
I can't commit to reading a book every month. Can I still join?
Yes! The book club is zero commitment, you are welcome to drop in and out as you please.
I'm not a big reader... what if I can't keep up?
Me neither! The book club is designed for readers of all levels, and we will alternate each month with a shorter, easier to read book to be accessible to as many people as possible. But if you don't manage to finish a book on time for the session, you can still join us to create art and crafts based on the book's themes... as long as you don't mind spoilers!
