A BETTERISH PANDEMIC PLATTER
With lots shifting and emerging right now, I figured I’d compile my smattering of offerings geared to make your distanced days betterish all in one place. From parties to company happy hours to projects for you and your kids, there’s a little bit of something for everybody in this mix.
MEETFUL MONDAYS - Strangers Unite! Amidst COVID-19, though we are finding new ways to connect with friends and family, we’re not able to connect to new, fresh faces. Research suggests there’s a positive impact when we connect with strangers, both for our own and others’ wellbeing. As humans, we are inherently social creatures who are made happier and healthier when connecting with others. So let’s make it happen. Sign up for a virtual Meet Cart Session (happening every Monday afternoon/early evening) and connect with folks in a creative format that integrates both a light-heartedness and depth to your distanced days.
VIRTUAL CELEBRATIONS - What if you could invite all of your favorite people across the globe to your birthday bash or graduation party or baby shower or (enter another amazing upcoming celebration here)? now you can! whether you’re turning 94 or 11 (yes both of those birthday parties have happened) or celebrating another big milestone, make your happy day happen with an interactive betterish bash. Sure, it’s true: with these kinds of parties, there are no balloons, no confetti, no cake. But this I can guarantee: a hands-on interactive game that gets every person involved, lots of laughter, and heck: we leave the person (or people) being celebrated feeling so incredibly honored and LOVED.
VIRTUAL HAPPY HOURS - Hey remember when we could clink cups with colleagues after a long day? Let’s bring back the Happy Hour--or at least some moments to socialize with co-workers during these distanced days. Book a virtual Happy Hour for your team or company or group of friends and gain an hour of creatively connecting...live at The Meet Cart zoom room!
SPIRIT WEEKS - Each month, Betterish is hosting a virtual spirit week via Instagram. It's like your classic spirit week but made better(ish) with a mix of playful, action-driven, empathy-building prompts that unfold in a digital space. Stay tuned for details on the next coming real soon...May 4th
ZINES FOR KIDS IN QUARANTINE - Running out of projects to do with your kids? Snag a set of three interactive zines for your kids in quarantine! These serve as mini exploratory activity books for kids to get crafty, creative, and fiercely imaginative.
VIRTUAL WORKSHOPS FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS - Needing a relevant and creative workshop to bring to your college students? Let’s explore community building amidst COVID19. Workshop courses include: Creative Invitations: Play And Participation in Virtual Spaces, Hope: The Bridge Between the Possible and Impossible Amidst a Global Pandemic, Unexpected Connections: Community Partnerships in Unlikely Places Amidst COVID-19.
SACRED CRUMBS CLEANSE - These quarantined days have spurred many of us to take refuge in our kitchens. Take on a cleanse that allows you to connect with recipes in more meaningful ways than ever before.
CREATIVE CONSULTING - One of my goals is to help companies, organizations and individuals generate hands-on experiences that bring people together, engage new audiences, and produce something awesome for your communities to contribute to. How do you do that amidst a pandemic? I’ve been tapping into my most creative and resourceful bones to figure that out and am helping organizations do the same during these uncertain times.
HANDCRAFTED CARDS - Stay connected to your people by sending a little snail mail during these tough and tender times. All cards have been made via hand-carving a stamp and inking individually with much love and care.
