Playdates aren’t just for kids anymore. Adding a little play to the typical week, PopUp PlayDate is an event that helps Black and brown womxn break up the routine of “adulting” responsibilities with fun and fellowship. This month - meet us at GroundFloor Oakland.

Relieve stress and connect with your inner child through a rotating variety of games, crafts, and activities. PopUp PlayDate is a sacred space for us to let our hair down and feel good through creativity, self-discovery, and fun. While you never know what each PlayDate holds, you know it's going to activate your joy.

Who this is for:

Black womxn and womxn of color who: are stressed because life is lifin’, crave more connection with other women of color, feel stuck in a rut and need some refreshing energy, or feel their inner child calling out for attention and healing.   

What to expect:

Fun. Laughter. Connection. Every PopUp PlayDate is its own special treat. The games and activities will vary from date to date and range from nostalgic and classic to new favorites or original creations. There is almost always a group activity, but don’t worry, no one is ever forced to participate. Just remember, part of the fun is showing up curious for the adventure knowing you’ll get to meet and play with other Black women in a joyful, creative, and collaborative space. 

Why we do this:

Because Black and brown womxn continuously face unrealistic expectations and social pressure on top of historical stressors– all of which detrimentally affect our mental and physical well being. Often expected to be strong and meet everyone’s needs first, Black women hardly get the chance to be carefree, playful, and nurture themselves.
