January Workshop: Almanach & Intentions

$20.00

In this workshop, we’ll explore the concept of the almanach, using it as a format to set goals and intentions for the year. It doesn’t need to be solely focused on deep or personal intentions — it can be about anything you want to hold space for: cooking skills, reading goals, outdoor adventures, movie nights, or self-care rituals. Making an almanach is essentially creating an action and invitation to hold our intentions.

During the workshop, we’ll look at inspiring almanachs (this month’s curation), create our own — physically or digitally — choose ingredients like color, typeface, and format, and print them if digital.


When: Sunday, January 24, 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Where: 1835 rue Everett

Limited spots available — reserve yours now!


What is an almanach?

An almanach is a companion through time. It’s a book that gathers, over a set period (usually a year), temporal markers and curated content: dates, seasons, cycles, knowledge, observations, stories, images, or rituals.

But beyond its classic definition, an almanach is:

• a printed rhythm

• a way to traverse time with intention

• a blend of practicality and poetry


Historically, it included:

• calendars, moon phases, and celebrations

• agricultural, meteorological, or medicinal advice

• texts, proverbs, and anecdotes

Today, especially in independent and artistic publishing, an almanach often becomes:

• a sensitive editorial object

• an archive of the present

• a space for reflection, creation, and observing the world

• something to consult, browse, and inhabit


What you’ll take away from the workshop:

  1. Your own almanach

    • Physical or digital, personalized with your choice of colors, typefaces, and formats

    • Filled with your intentions, goals, and little rituals for the year

  2. A clear plan for your intentions

    • A simple, actionable way to hold space for what matters to you

    • From reading goals and cooking projects to self-care days or outdoor adventures

  3. Inspiration and references

    • Historical and contemporary almanach examples

  4. Practical skills

    • Typography: choosing and applying typefaces

    • Layout, composition, and design techniques

    • Printing: paper, colors, and formats

  5. A creative and immersive experience

    • A chance to connect with your body, your mind, and your intentions

    • Motivation to continue creating and holding your intentions throughout the year

By the end of the day, you’ll leave with a tangible object, practical skills, and inspiration to carry your intentions into 2026 ✨
