Watching people meet each other, laugh together, build worlds together, and just exist in the same space has been really special.
This place is growing because of you.
We had food trucks roll through, packed board game nights, cozy hobby nights, a fantasy map-making workshop, Blood on the Clocktower tables full of accusations, a pizza party… and so many little moments in between.
Hey, we know this is kinda corny but we're kind of in awe of what February turned into.
In one month at The Secret Lantern we filmed a commercial, hosted our first author signing, and held our very first improv night.

Last night was a big first for us.
We hosted our first author signing + Q&A at The Secret Lantern with Andrea Eames (A Harvest of Hearts)& it was everything we hoped it would be.
Thank you to everyone who came out and made our little corner feel like the kind of space we've been dreaming about.
What a weekend!
Our first Ren Faire brought out old friends, new faces, costumes, & so many surprises.
The energy in the store was unreal. Laughter, storytelling, vendors, & a whole lot of magic.
We’re totally doing this again.
Thank you to every person who showed up and made it memorable.
