Your Time, Your Way: Storytelling and Sip
Thursday, November 19 @ 5:00 pm – 7:30 pm
The Your Time, Your Way connection event for November is Storytelling and Sip. Join us to celebrate all things storytelling! Whether you love writing novels, short stories, sitcoms, movies, poems, or simply getting lost in a good book, this space is for you.
Join us for a cozy evening with a warm beverage, where you can share your creativity, discover new stories, and connect with others who enjoy the world of words.
This relaxed, no-pressure space invites you to:
- Share your favourite books, stories, or writing projects with others
- Take some quiet time to read and enjoy a good book
- Explore neuroaffirming books available to borrow from the Aide Canada Library
- Discover new authors, ideas, and stories
- Design and create your own personalized bookmark
Whether you enjoy writing, reading, listening to stories, or simply spending time around people who love creativity, we invite you to join us for an evening of imagination, connection, and storytelling.
Members of our community are invited to drop-in and use our space every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday between 5:00 and 7:30 p.m. Consider this your “third space”–a place separate from home, work, or school where there is no obligation to spend money on food or beverages.
To make our space more welcoming and inclusive, we provide flexible seating in different rooms, focus tools, and adjustable lighting. It’s your time to use your way:
- Socializing – bring friends and enjoy a board game (bring your own or play one of ours)
- Access the internet, complete personal tasks, explore hobbies online on our computers, or bring your own device and connect via our network
- Sit quietly and read – take a book from our Little Free Library
- Bring a personal project or craft to work on, do homework, or study
- Engage in unstructured activities like doing a puzzle, sketching, or journalling
- Learn about Sinneave’s programs, services, and resources
- And more…
To ensure a welcoming and safe environment for all users, please read over the Rules of the Space before you arrive:
- Check-In is Required: Everyone signs in upon arrival
- No Alcohol or Drugs: This is a substance-free space for everyone’s safety and comfort
- Respectful Content and Behavior: No engagement with explicit content and all interactions should be respectful
- Noise Levels: Keep volume moderate to accommodate diverse activities
- No formal supervision provided: Attend and engage independently
