Welcome to Junk Journal Club!
Your cozy, carefree, crafty space for grown ups where we can separate from our screens and have a fun, creative afternoon! This is our place to stop the scroll, calm the overwhelm of ideas, and start creating.
This space is perfect for seasoned junk-journal-ers who are looking for a cool community to co-create with, as well as folks who are curious about junk journaling but aren’t sure where to begin! We meet you where you are, regardless of experience, and help you lean into creation for creation sake.
Join local artist Erika Rose (the owner of Creation Sake) at Divine Barrel for a carefree crafting session where you will learn what junk journaling is, have the opportunity to play with a variety of upcycled crafting materials, and meet new and fun crafty friends!
All skill levels are welcome & all materials will be provided (a blank journal, various collage materials, stickers, markers, crayons, etc.) & you are encouraged (but not required!) to bring any of your own “junk” that you would like to add to your new journal spreads! Junk could be things like: concert/event tickets, receipts, photos, travel brochures, the possibilities are ENDLESS with junk journaling, y’all. ENDLESS.
The theme for May is “Out of this World”, so expect sparkly, starry, spacey ephemera and prompts to escape into, as well as some travel themed materials.
Themes are ALWAYS optional, you can come and participate in the themes, or you can vibe with whatever creative ideas are in your mind. At Creation Sake, we stand by creating simply for the sake of it; we do not have to have a goal, but we have found that sometimes, having a theme helps calm the overwhelm.
Tickets are tiered for accessibility, so here’s the breakdown! Keep in mind, this event is 18+!
$25- recommended ticket tier
$35- our pay-it-forward tier that helps provide the accessibility tier, as well as monthly ticket giveaways

Full Circle: Art Show & Reception for The Left Brained Artist
2026-06-04 18:00 - 21:00 | Divine Barrel Brewing, 3701 North Davidson Street, Charlotte, NC, 28205, United States
Come to the reception for my newest solo show at @divinebarrelclt featuring newer small works, and a few other surprises. Thursday June 4th 6-9pm. Afterparty at @copperheadsocialclub!
About the show Full Circle:
In many ways, I feel like my life has come full circle.
About five years ago, I went to @jbird.the.vandal’s show at Divine Barrel. I remember it being one of the first in person events after Covid where so many artists that knew each other through Instagram were in hiding and came out to play. @stencilspray was the only person I knew in real life, but that night I met people who became some of my best friends. I couldn’t imagine my life without them now!
About 3 and a half years ago, I had my own solo show at @divinebarrelclt. I absolutely loved working with Jake and the rest of the crew. It was awesome. However, I feel like I was a different person. I was pushing to find a balance between being a public educator and an artist, it was a challenge. I think back then I knew what I wanted, but didn’t have the courage to go for it.
Since then, I’ve done my 16-year-old self proud by resigning from teaching and shifting my main focus to my original dream of being an artist over the last 2 and a half years.
During this time, my work has evolved and expanded in many ways from installation based work (@chromatic.roots), to new art forms, to curating the work of others (Pic 8 @nineeighteennine @thevapacenter), and much more. But in other ways, it has remained the same, yet more confident and authentic. I am a fiber artist, it’s what lights my soul on fire in the best way, but I love to paint too. I’ve certainly learned a thing or two about brushes and cans over the years. I still feel most like myself as an artist when I get to combine the two.
Pursuing art has its ups and downs. About a year ago, I decided to take a non demanding remote corporate job to ensure my bills get paid to allow time to focus on artistic passion projects like @chromatic.roots and curating a fiber art show in @nineeighteennine. 5 months later I was laid off and found myself asking ‘What am I going to do now?’ Once again, @divinebarrelclt came through for me in the best way possible. I was hired as a bartender with no experience other than my grit and perseverance from being a public educator and an artist. Shout out to Amanda and Jake who were like, ‘Yupp, you cool, we can teach you how to bartend.’
Since then, I have jumped right in to help the brewery’s initiative to be a hub for arts and culture by displaying artwork, hosting my own fiber arts meetup, and telling everyone to book their events there. And yes, I know how to bartend now, so we can add that to my long list of trades.
When @stencilspray approached me about having another show a few months ago, it was a no brainer for me in so many ways, and now you know why. I can’t wait to celebrate with everyone in my community at the opening reception in one of my favorite places in the city.

Sketchbook Swap with Good Neighbor
2026-06-04 19:00 - 21:00 | Divine Barrel Brewing, 3701 North Davidson Street, Charlotte, NC, 28205, United States
What is Sketchbook Swap?

Sketchbook Swap is a monthly drawing meetup made for anyone—whether you draw every day or haven't touched a pencil in years. We keep it low-key, fun, and social. No pressure, just interesting prompts and new friends.

How it works:

Bring your own sketchbook and your favorite drawing tools.

We start with a 10-minute drawing prompt.

When time's up, we swap sketchbooks and draw in someone else's.

Repeat with new prompts every 10 minutes—for about 2 hours.

Hello Summer: A Music & Comedy Showcase Benefiting The Laundry Project
2026-06-05 19:00 - 22:00 | NC
No one should ever have to choose between paying a bill and having clean clothes. However, that’s the choice many of our neighbors have to make every day.
That’s why we’re proud to partner with our friends @engagecurrent to host HELLO SUMMER! On Friday, June 5 at @divinebarrelclt, we’ll get together with @carolinavibemerchants, @queencanaryband and Ben and Matt (of @toilet_spaghetti) to provide live music while host @theeasterdude and special guests @sean_kett_comedy and @jen.altizer provide the laughs.
Together, we’ll raise money for @engagecurrent’s The Laundry Project, which helps low-income families bridge the gap by paying for their laundry.
You can help us by making a donation at laundrybycurrent.org, donating at the event, or bringing new and unopened packages of detergent, fabric softener, bleach, sanitizer, dryer sheets, stain removal, reusable laundry bags, coloring books and crayons, or 1” blue painters tape to the show.
Catch the vibe!!!

Sticker Club: Spill the Tea - Queen Charlotte's No Kings Sticker Club
2026-06-08 18:00 - 20:00 | Divine Barrel Brewing, 3701 North Davidson Street, Charlotte, NC, 28205, United States
DEAREST GENTLE READER…
Are you a fancy sticker person? Do you hate our current administration? Were you also hoping that Benedict Bridgerton would end up with a guy? (No shade to Sophie at all. Some of us were just really looking forward to a queer season. Fingers crossed for Francesca.)
If you answered yes to any of the above, start lacing your corsets now, dolls. Our June meeting of Sticker Club for Grown-Ass Adults is themed Spill The Tea: Queen Charlotte’s No Kings Sticker Club, aka STICKERTON.
Here’s what’s wild, though, y’all. We have TWO events back-to-back this week in June, and unlike Benedict and every bi person in the ton, you actually CAN have both. Join us for both Spill The Tea Sticker Club AND Space Camp: A Celestial Craft Sampler for just $50! A savings of $20, friends.
WHAT DOES ONE DO AT A STICKER CLUB FOR GROWN-ASS ADULTS?
Omg, thank you so much for asking.
We live, we laugh, and we put stickers on shit. We’ll provide abundant stickers, plus fun options for your base, like journals, bookmarks, and postcards. Plus, fun sticker surprises and giveaways every month!
We’re meeting at Divine Barrel, the arts & silliness hub of Charlotte’s brewery scene. Feel free to grab a drink while we’re there to support our besties!
FAQs:
CAN MY KID COME?
This is Sticker Club for Grown-Ass Adults, so unless your child is 18 or over, no, they cannot join.
CAN I BRING MY OWN STICKERS?
You’re welcome to BYOS, but if you’re not looking to share with the group, make sure that you protect them with your life. Our sticker events get chaotic in the best way, and we can’t promise your stickers won’t try to join the madness.
CAN I BRING MY OWN THING-TO-STICK-STICKERS-ON?
Absolutely. Please bring something extra weird. We’re so excited to see it. THAT SAID, we cannot allow reusable sticker books/sticker transfer paper because a) the entire point of Sticker Club is to release the sticker anxiety of our youths and actually stick stickers, not save them, and b) we’ve noticed that reusable sticker book folks use 3-5x more stickers than folks who are sticker-spamming/sticker-bombing/whatever-you-want-to-call-this, and we just can’t financially accommodate that rate of consumption. Anyone who’s been to Sticker Club can attest that we are VERY generous with our massive sticker collection, but we do have to keep parameters in place to make this venture financially sustainable. If you’ve brought a reusable sticker book previously, please do not bring one in the future. Thank yooou!
WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH PAY-WHAT-YOU-CAN?
Our sticker collection ain’t cheap, y’all, and we keep it fresh for you, but we also know that everything costs $1 million these days, so we have options for you:
$15 Covers the cost of the materials we bring to Sticker Club
$25 Covers the cost of the materials we bring to Sticker Club and the loving work we put into planning and organizing for Sticker Club events
$35 Covers all of the above, plus helps fund monthly sticker surprises and free ticket giveaways on Instagram
GOT MORE QUESTIONS?
