This is a rolling workshop running from 1 PM to 5 PM, February 14th-16th. Drop in at any time, sit down, and create something special.
“We’re declaring it Valentine’s weekend,” said founder and director John Reaves. “There’s somebody special that deserves something.”
This Valentine’s Weekend Workshop marks the soft opening under the Cup & Quill brand, which has evolved within the past year.
Reaves expressed his want to provide a welcoming space for creativity and relaxation, combining journaling and tea into a unique experience.
Materials for crafting personalized Valentine’s gifts, including tea cups, teaspoons, and tea-related items that you can customize with Valentine’s Day decorations will be provided.
“There’ll be materials for you to make your own personalized Valentine’s card, or your own little one-of-a-kind gift, or a gift box with Valentine’s candies,” Reaves said.
Attached to the gallery is Dream Bakery, which serves pastries, bread, and sandwiches.
During the rest of the year, Cup & Quill hosts journaling workshops and tea parties.
“We’re also open for tea parties, custom tea parties, if somebody wants to have a tea party with their friends or for their kids,” said Reaves. “ It’s sort of a little tea party nook.”
The shop includes tea bag squeezers and other tea-related accessories along with journals and journaling items for sale.
