Still cheesin’ from last week’s Open House ✨. The day was filled with familiar and new faces. A very special thank you to everyone who came through, popped up, and participated in the programs throughout the day. We started draft with the help and support from a lot of really talented people here in Indy with dreams of making space for the entrepreneurial and creative community. A place where focused work and rest can happen as we believe the best ideas happen when the mind can wander. A space that feels good by design but more importantly because of the people who choose to be a part of it. And draft feels good. Now we have a team that helps make draft even better than we could’ve imagined (Hi Anna! Hi Macy!). And so many collaborators who choose to bring ideas, workshops, and programs to Indy through the space. Here’s to many more. 📸Thank you @leahtribproductions for many of these photos! ✍️Thank you @laurenhday for the gift of WriteShop. 💐📚🌱🥙Thank you @electricbloomsindy , @bookedfortomorrow , @madfarmersindy , and @offtrail.eats for popping up. 🫂💫Thank you Anna, Abby, Allie, and Amanda for being vulnerable and sharing your stories at Table Talks. And thank you to our members and everyone who continues to make this place special. 💗

Table Talks is a casual conversation space where interaction and participatory discussions are not only encouraged but appreciated.

On April 10th we will be opening up our doors and welcoming you and anyone else you’d like to bring along to our Spring Open House! 🌸 Maybe you’ve been to a previous Open House here at draft. If you have, you know it’s rooted in the celebration of ideas and the people behind those ideas. draft opened three years ago with a mission to provide a safe space to explore, to not have all the answers, and to try with genuine support. I am genuinely proud to say that we have and continue to live out that mission. Our Spring Open House is a day full of wonderful local vendors and activations that invite you to be a part of what makes draft, draft. Whether it’s your first or tenth time here, know you are welcome. Start your day with WriteShop with Lauren, sipping coffee and writing amongst new friends. Browse books at @bookedfortomorrow , build your own bouquet with @electricbloomsindy , or select locally grown garden starts from @madfarmersindy . For lunch time, @offtrail.eats has you covered. Build a grain or garden bowl exactly to your liking. This will be the perfect refuel as you join 💫Table Talks, and hear from four founders and voices behind some of Indy’s newest businesses. And finally, we hope you’ll end your day with a slice of cake 🍰, because it’s a birthday celebrations after all, and we couldn’t have done this all without you! ✨RSVP at link in bio!
