Recess for Grown-Ups in Denver

Playful creative workshops in Denver.

Reconnect with your inner 10-year-old.

WHAT THIS IS

When we’re kids, we’re encouraged to play.
When we retire, we’re encouraged to play again.

But for the decades in between?
We’re told to be productive. Efficient. Serious.

These workshops are your grown-up recess — playful, low-pressure gatherings where you can create, connect, and rediscover a little wonder along the way.

Come solo or bring a friend. You’ll leave lighter, brighter, and carrying something you made.

PRIVATE ART SOCIALS

Want a playful creative night just for your people? I host private art socials for book clubs, birthdays, retreats, teams, and more.

I bring the supplies. You bring your people. Together we make something joyful and unforgettable.

Why the Parakeet?

Because you’re not a productivity machine. You’re a living, breathing mix of curiosity, instinct, creativity… and play.

Parakeets don’t ask for permission to sing — they just do. And so can you.

At Find Your Inner Parakeet, we believe joy is essential. These gatherings aren’t about fixing or optimizing — they’re about reconnecting with what makes you feel alive.

And somewhere along the way, I realized PARAKEET also stands for:

Play, Adult Recess, And Kindness Energize Everything Today. 💛

Honestly? That feels like a pretty good philosophy for life.
