ideas for parties i’d like to host one day:

🧩🪑 a puzzle party

• there are 3-4 puzzle stations around the house, of varying piece-count. you are free to stay at one puzzle, or take a break and mingle at the other puzzle tables for new & different conversation. people are welcome to take the puzzling as seriously or as casually as they would like.
• a brand new puzzle can be awarded to the night’s MVP (most valuable puzzler)—not to be revealed until the end of the night, so as not to put pressure on anyone.
• all drinks must be served in lidded containers to prevent spills on the puzzles. (these cups could even be fun custom orders, decorated with puzzle pieces, that can act as party favors.)

☕️📖 a coffee table book party

• everyone brings one or two of their favorite coffee table books to the party (or, if they don’t have one, they can check one out from the library). the books get placed around the house. during the party, guests go around and flip through the books, and share aloud the cool things they find with the group.
• this can help stimulate new conversations, or also be a good excuse to leave a conversation or change the subject.
• held in the evening, coffee, tea, coffee cake, shortbread cookies, chocolate covered espresso beans, and digestifs would be served.
• if people are willing to part with the books they brought, guests are welcome to swap for new coffee table books.

💻📝 wikipedia party

• everyone comes dressed as their favorite obscure wikipedia page
• maybe combine with a presentation party and everyone presents on their page
• the group makes their own wikipedia page about the party, linking all their favorite pages
