Yes, National Sticker Day is real. It’s celebrated on January 13 in honor of R. Stanton Avery, who was born on this day in 1907 and invented the modern self-adhesive sticker in 1935. He started in a 100-square-foot Los Angeles loft and ended up creating an empire worth tens of millions. Not bad for sticky pieces of paper.What’s happening:
-Make your own stickers at our DIY station (finally, a use for all those opinions you have)
-Bring stickers to swap – that Lisa Frank collection isn’t going to trade itself (Lisa Frank = queen of 90s neon rainbow stickers featuring dolphins, unicorns, and pandas in violent explosions of pink and purple. If you know, you know.)
-Help us turn a perfectly good door into a chaotic masterpiece of adhesive art
Drop in anytime between 5-8pm. We’ll have drinks, markers, and questionable decision-making abilities.
Bring your favorite stickers to trade, your weirdest design ideas, or just show up empty-handed and wing it. This is a judgment-free sticker zone. Yes, even band stickers from 2003. Especially band stickers from 2003.
Fun fact: The world record sticker ball weighs 230 pounds and is over 8 feet around. We’re not going for records here, just good vibes and creative chaos.
