Period Party
We get it. Periods can be scary. Confusing. Hard to talk about. Awkward. Cringe. But they can also be fun!
Join us for a workshop of games, crafts, experiments, treat bags, and, of course, cake! (No parents allowed!)*
Got questions like:
- What is a period? Where does it come from?
- What products can I use?
- What if I get my period at school?
- Can I go swimming on my period?
- Do periods hurt?
- When will I get my first period?
Our Party Facilitators are at the ready to answer your questions and make learning about our bodies and periods fun!
It’s the Party of the Month!
Date: Saturday, December 5, 2026 from 10:00AM-12:30PM
