Curious about junk journaling but not totally sure what it is? You’re not alone... and that’s exactly why this workshop exists. WTF Is Junk Journaling?! is a playful, welcoming introduction to this creative, no-rules way of documenting your life. Think scrapbooking’s weirder, freer, more expressive cousin. If you love making things with your hands and want a space to explore without pressure, this class is for you.
You’ll learn what junk journaling actually is, how to start one, and how to turn everyday scraps into something unexpectedly beautiful and meaningful.
This class includes a fresh, new journal and lots of scraps and ephemera to decorate your pages!
Bring a couple meaningful or intriguing scraps from your own life such as movie tickets, receipts, old notes, mail, photos, packaging, anything!
Workshop Age Guidance Our workshops are designed to be a welcoming and inclusive creative space for all. Please note that workshops are intended for participants ages 14 and up, with instruction, pacing, and materials geared toward teens and adults rather than young children.
Workshops that are appropriate for younger participants will be clearly labeled as family-friendly or “Grown-Up & Me” activities. Thank you for your understanding!
