Take 30 seconds to think of a 1–2 minute story you’d like to share. One person tells their story while others listen without interrupting.
After the story, ask 1–2 follow-up questions. Repeat: each person takes a turn telling a story and receiving follow-up questions.
End by sharing one thing that surprised or resonated with you from someone else’s story.
YES AND: One person starts with a simple sentence. Example: “I just adopted a flying cat.” The next person adds to it, starting with “Yes, and…” “Yes, and it’s already joined a sky-diving team.” Keep going around, each person building on the story. Let the story go off the rails.
One person pretends to be an expert on a completely ridiculous topic (e.g. “underwater karaoke,” “socks for snakes”). Others ask interview questions with a straight face. The “expert” makes up serious-sounding answers on the spot. Switch roles after 2–3 questions.
Fortunately, Unfortunately: Alternate between good and bad things happening. Example: Jack: “Fortunately, I found $100 on the sidewalk.” Jill: “Unfortunately, it belonged to a raccoon crime boss.” Sam: “Fortunately, I speak raccoon.” Keep going until the story becomes absurd or ends.
Find a short poem you like — something meaningful, funny, or just interesting. (You can use your phone or pick one you already know.)
Take turns reading your poems aloud to the group.
After each poem, each person picks something share what you liked about it — or how it made you feel, or a question to ask about it.
Pick a category (e.g., animals, movies, things that fly) and go around saying a word that fits — no repeats! Try to limit the pauses between each person to one or two seconds.
One person gives a random word; everyone says the first memory or image it brings to mind.
Play “2 truths and a lie” — tell three statements about yourself, and others guess the lie.
Build a sentence together: each person adds one word at a time. Try to make it weird but coherent!
Choose a word and go around the group thinking of rhymes.
No repeats — if someone gets stuck, pick a new word.
(Example: "hat → cat → flat →…")
Pick a category (like fruits), then go around naming things in that category — but each word must start with the last letter of the previous one. (Example: "apple → elderberry → yam → mango…")
Think of a word, and everyone has to come up with new words by changing just one letter. (Example: "cold → gold → bold → bald…")
When you’re stuck, pick a new word.
Invent a new animal by combining two real ones. Bonus: Name it and describe what sound it makes.
Draw a future snack that doesn’t exist yet. What’s in it, and who’s brave enough to try it?
Sketch your dream hangout spot. Is it a rooftop jungle, a treehouse café, or something stranger?
Take turns adding to a shared drawing — one piece at a time. Start with a simple shape, character, or object. Each person adds something new, then passes it on.
If you could create a club, what would it be about?
What’s the theme, topic, or purpose that brings people together?
What would your club actually do? Think about regular activities, events, or rituals that members would take part in.
What kind of people would you want to attract — and how would you find them? Would you flyer cafes? Wear a hat with a secret code?
What's the mission or vibe of your club? Is it about creativity, connection, learning, mischief, relaxation, activism?
Give your club a name. Serious or silly — what would look good on a t-shirt or secret pin?
Does a club like this already exist in your city? If so, are you going to join them—or start your own version?
When you become a participating place, you can request a custom category for your organization's conference, festival, convention, or event.
