SUMMARY:Social Experiment: Device-Free Connection Experience
DESCRIPTION:Join Portsmouth's experiment in putting humans back in human connection. After a day of screen fatigue and digital "connections\," discover what face-to-face conversation feels like when strangers become real people\, not profile pictures. WALK-INS WELCOME!\n\nWhat You'll Experience\n\nTHE GATHERING:\n\n\n	\n	Complete device-free environment for 3 hours\n	\n	\n	Conversation prompt cards to use during the event and take home\n	\n	\n	Optional additional connection experiences\n	\n	\n	Free participation - just show up ready to connect\n	\n\n\nWhy Reedmor?\n\nReedmor Books & Brews believes great conversations happen where books and beverages meet. As both bookstore and bar\, they create spaces where people gather to slow down\, think\, and connect. With craft coffee\, tea\, beer\, and wine\, Reedmor is the perfect Third Space for authentic community building.\n\nWhat You'll Leave With\n\n\n	\n	New connections with fellow community members\n	\n	\n	Conversation skills that work everywhere - from family dinners to workplace interactions\n	\n	\n	Tuesday evening energy that refreshes your week instead of depleting it\n	\n	\n	Take-home conversation prompts to spark authentic connections anywhere\n	\n\n\nThe Experience\n\nThis isn't networking\, therapy\, or forced team-building.
