I’m back at it — organizing another Pen Paper Palooza Pop-Up this weekend on Abbot Kinney Blvd. in Venice! 🎉
Yes… I quit my job at a stationery company to focus on comedy — and somehow ended up creating the West Coast’s first stationery festival. Life is funny like that. Literally.
This Pop-Up is a smaller, cozier version of the big festival — but packed with just as much creativity (and probably more washi tape). All our vendors are amazing local artists — mostly women-owned small businesses — bringing pens, notebooks, stickers, art, and surprises that make you say, “I need this… for productivity.”
There’ll be French toast from Albion Garden Café, Kujibiki raffles (where everyone wins!), and enough stationery joy to refill your creative soul.
If you love pens, paper, or just good vibes — come hang out, shop local, and say hi! I’ll be there, running around with a clipboard and probably cracking jokes between raffles.
🗓️ Saturday, November 8📍 Albion Garden, 1043 Abbot Kinney Blvd., Venice⏰ 10 AM – 4 PM
Tickets are selling fast — morning slots are already sold out! Get your afternoon tickets online or at the door.
Come for the stationery, stay for the laughter (and carbs).See you there!
