⌨️ Typewriter Café @FRIDA — Creative Writing Workshop by Totaal Getikt
📅 Date: Friday, 14 November 2025
⏰ Time: 16:00 – 18:00
📍 Location: FRIDA Book Café, Stadsgravenstraat 56, Enschede
🌿 About the Workshop
Step back in time and rediscover the joy of writing — the old-fashioned way. During Typewriter Café @FRIDA, the team from Totaal Getikt* invites you to sit down at one of their colorful vintage typewriters and let the words flow, one keystroke at a time. After a short introduction on how to use the machines, you’ll join a playful writing challenge called Word Bingo. A spinning wheel randomly selects ten words — your creative prompts for a spontaneous text, poem, or story. The results are always surprising, funny, and delightfully imperfect.
🌊 Message in a Bottle
This edition of Typewriter Café comes with a magical twist: you can turn your words into Message in a Bottle! After the Word Bingo challenge, you’ll have the chance to type a wish, message, or poem for 2026, roll it up, and place it in a little glass bottle filled with seashell sand. Whether you want to gift it to someone special or hang it in your Christmas tree, it’s a beautiful way to capture your thoughts and let them drift into the new year. ✨
🎧 Atmosphere @ FRIDA
Expect the rhythmic clatter of keys, the smell of coffee, and the quiet focus of shared creativity. No pressure, no perfection — just writing for the joy of it.
☕ Practical Info
🎟 Participation fee: €10. Duration: 2 hours (16:00 – 18:00). Spots are limited to 23 participants to keep it cozy.
✏️ *Hosted by Totaal Getikt — a creative collective from Zwolle that brings people together through typewriting, word play, and a healthy dose of humour. Totaal Getikt means Total Madness in English, but in Dutch 'getikt' means both 'madness' but also the past tense of 'typing')
