What we’re about
Unplug & Play: A No-Phone Social Experience
Escape the digital grind and rediscover the joy of real human connection at Unplug & Play—a space where we put our phones away and fully engage with ourselves and those around us at various local cafes/bars/restaurants/lounges/etc. Bring a hobby to catch yourself up on, a book to read, a journal to write in, or something you're excited about working on.
✨ What to Expect:
🌱 Checking your cell phone at the door and enter a relaxed, tech-free environment to unwind and be present
🎲 Fun, interactive activities that encourage connection and play
☕ Great company, meaningful conversations, and a chance to recharge
💡 A moment of mindfulness—whether through journaling, games, or simply being in the moment
No scrolling. No notifications. Just you, your curiosity, and a room full of like-minded people. Join us for an evening of me time, we time, and real-time connection.
Let’s unplug together and get some real face to face time in community.

Ready to unplug?
Digital detoxes are proven to improve focus, in person bonds, and reduce stress.
We’ll kick things off with a prep circle the day before, set intentions, and ease into stillness. Then, spend the next 24 hours screen-free, embracing analog life. We’ll reconvene the next day to share insights, reflections, and anything that came up during your tech-free time.
This day invites you to reclaim your time, creativity, and stillness. Leave the noise. Come back to you and let's have some fun, offline!AGENDA
✨ Day Before (Prep Circle)
Set intentions, explore what you hope to gain, and prepare yourself for your day of being screen free.
📵 24‑Hour Detox (Night + Day)
Surrender devices, embrace analog life—journal, walk, knit, read, create. Take breaks, immerse in stillness, and enjoy your environment! Take notes along the way.
🌅 Day After (Integration Gathering)
Reunite to reflect: what surfaced? What shifted? Share moments of insight and gratitude, grounding your experience. - UP Collective - Offline HangoutThe Commons, San Francisco, CA
