Take a break from scrolling, screens, and endless notifications to be with yourself and others this summer in Indy.
No agenda. No pressure. No forced interaction. Just an opportunity to turn off in a world that’s always on.
Structure:
Unplug gatherings are accessible, inviting spaces that operate in a come-and-go-as-you-please format. Read, write, and connect with others or simply sit in reflection. We will take it back to the days before the smart phone, free of pervasive tech, fostering connection with ourselves and others in a calm, relaxed environment.
With Unplug, there is no performance. No expectation other than being near others and doing whatever is needed. Come read, write, think, rest, stretch, or be.
What you can expect:
- A completely tech-free gathering (we'll hold on to your phones!)
- No agenda, no expectations - come-and-go as you please
