Let's flood NEMO Science Museum's rooftop with hundreds of readers for our third ever 1-Hour Reading Rave - a free (pay-what-you-like) event to swap screen time

Let's flood NEMO Science Museum's rooftop with hundreds of readers for our third ever 1-Hour Reading Rave - a free (pay-what-you-like) event to swap screen time for a calm hour of social reading. See it as a workout for your mind, without the sweaty part πŸ˜‰. Imagine this: 500 people reading together one of the city's most iconic rooftops, without a phone in sight. On August 1st, we're challenging Amsterdam to take a break from scrolling and get together for an offline reading rave overlooking Amsterdam. On June 27th, we already got together with 300+ readers on NEMO's rooftop. They read silently* in the sun to live guitar tunes, and connected with each other afterwards. It was a-ma-zing. *Please note we'll read in public and so, there might be sounds, voices, wind and more. Crazy right!? What to expect: ⏰ 1 hour of laid-back (silent but social) reading, with hundreds of others πŸ“΅ Phones off and tucked away for the entire hangout (no-phone policy). πŸ’¬ Stay longer to meet and connect with fellow readers. We'll supply book-themed conversation starters. Where & when: πŸ“ NEMO Science Museum's Rooftop. Please enter from the long stairs, and not through the museum. πŸ—“ Saturday, August 1st, from 11:00-12:00. Please arrive at least 15-30 minutes early (before 10:45), as communal (silent) reading starts promptly at 11:00. 🎟 RSVP to claim your ticket & support our mission with an optional donation - it allows us to keep these events free and pay artists ❀️ *In case of rain or bad weather, we'll have to either cancel or move the gathering to another date. What to bring: πŸ“– A book, poetry bundle, comic, or anything to read . πŸ«” Your own pillow, blanket, fold-out chair, or anything else cozy to get comfy on. 🧺 Your own drinks, snacks, and sun screen! You can also buy drinks at NEMO's rooftop cafe. πŸ‘― Invite friends, book worms, ravers, or your entire book club... Basically, people who'd kill you if they'd miss this. πŸ‘š A shirt or blouse, as bikini's or a bare chest is. notallowed. ❌ Sorry, no pets allowed. Please leave your dog, cat or goldfish at home. We can’t wait to swap screen time for real time with you. Love, The Offline Club
