Fabrik's Digital Detox Day
We invite you to experience a true retreat from the digital noise. As part of this gathering, we kindly ask all attendees to leave their electronics in our designated entrance area. To foster an immersive and distraction-free environment, no devices will be allowed in the loft space.
Join us for a rejuvenating Digital Detox Day at our serene Tribeca location! Whether you stay for an hour or spend the entire day, this is your opportunity to disconnect and rediscover the simple joys of presence and connection.
💆 What to Expect:
Build Connection: Start a reading circle, engage in meaningful conversations, or simply enjoy the quiet company of others.
Create Together: Take time to sketch, paint, or collaborate on a group art project—no experience needed, just curiosity.
Relax and Reflect: Journal your thoughts, practice mindfulness, or explore a guided visualization to help you recharge.
Shared Experiences: Participate in group discussions or create something beautiful with the people around you.
This is your chance to slow down, tap into your creativity, and leave the digital world behind—if only for a little while. Come as you are, whenever you’re ready.
