Offline Reading Party 📚 x Slow Art Experience 🖼️ | Special Event | Le Kawaa du Lucernaire | Paris 6th
📚 Join The Offline Club at Le Kawaa du Lucernaire for a very special edition of our cosy Offline Reading Party.
Lock your phone away and immerse yourself in a morning designed to recharge you — with a twist.
This time, we're celebrating Slow Art Day by turning our books into works of art.
Because here's the thing: your book is art. The cover, the typography, the texture of the pages, the way a sentence is constructed. We just rarely slow down enough to notice.
This reading party is your chance to disconnect from screens, unwind from the daily buzz, and meet like-minded people — while rediscovering your book through a completely different lens.
A little escape into a different world — where time slows down, people are open to connect, and you can truly focus on yourself.
The perfect start to your weekend. ✨
What to expect:
📖 Peaceful (me-)time to read that book you've been meaning to start (or finish!)
🎨 A Slow Art session that might just change the way you read... forever
🤝 The chance to meet and connect with like-minded (wannabe) booklovers
💬 A space where connection comes easily — no rush, no pressure, no notifications
🫖 Community vibes, a welcoming atmosphere, and plenty of time to relax
📵 Valuable time offline that leaves you feeling rested and fulfilled
🇫🇷 🇬🇧 French & English friendly — all our events are bilingual, so you can comfortably speak either language
The Program:
10:00 – 10:30 | Arrive & Make Yourself at Home
10:30 – 11:00 | Slow Art Session
We'll begin by looking at our books the way you'd look at a painting in a museum: slowly, curiously, without rushing to "get through it."
Led by an Art Therapist specialised in Museum Art Therapy and Book Therapy (yes, that's me, Stefania, your city leader 🙋♀️), this session will invite you to truly see your book before you read it.
We'll also explore the idea of Slow Reading, because... did you know that's a thing too?
11:00 – 12:00 | Dive Into Your Book Your time to sit back and enjoy undistracted reading time — perhaps with fresh eyes after the session.
12:00 – 13:00 | Connect With Others
Chat and connect with others, but only if you feel like it.
Meet new people, share stories about your favourite reads, and enjoy meaningful conversations.
We create laid-back spaces where talking to strangers is the norm and connection is made easy.
What to Bring
Your current read, a book with a cover that makes your heart sing, or both.
Comics, poetry, graphic novels — all literature is welcome here. Come as you are, bring what moves you.
About your phone: Your phone will rest in our “phone hotel,” and we’ll be its bodyguards. But just so you know, if it magically disappears, learns to fly, or mysteriously breaks, The Offline Club can’t be held responsible.
Not quite ready to let it go? No worries — just switch it off and keep it tucked away, out of sight.
Refunds? Sorry, no take-backs.
But! If you cancel at least 48 hours before the event, you can request a €12.50 voucher to use toward a future event.
You can't afford the Standard ticket but would love to join? Please reach out to us paris@the offline-club.com and we'll be more than happy to find a solution and/or provide you a Solidarity ticket.
We love and appreciate the venues that host our events! Please remember that your consumption gives the venues one more reason to love us back!
We can’t wait to swap screen time for real time with you.
Offline hugs,
Stefania, The Offline Club Paris
