Not Your Average Wine Night
Forget the loud bars, awkward small talk, and overpriced cocktails.
At Wicked Rae’s, our Ladies’ Night is about something more real: creativity, connection, and unfiltered joy. We give grown women permission to get messy, try something new, and laugh until their stomachs hurt.
Because glitter and glue guns aren't just for kids.
Women Have Been Running on Empty
Somewhere between bills, caregiving, Zoom fatigue, endless multitasking, and everyone else’s needs, a lot of women have lost their me time. And it shows up in ways we rarely stop to name.
Common signs of creative and emotional exhaustion:
Forgetting why you walked into a room
Snapping at your favorite people
Feeling like your to-do list is never done
Losing interest in things that used to light you up
The constant feeling of being “on edge” or low-grade numb
We get it. That’s why Ladies’ Night isn’t just a fun night out - it’s medicine.
What Happens When You Finally Relax Your Brain?
Science says that engaging in creative play with others:
Releases dopamine and oxytocin (aka joy and bonding chemicals)
Decreases cortisol (stress hormone)
Activates the parasympathetic nervous system (rest + restore mode)
Boosts neuroplasticity, helping you think clearer and feel more present
Now add in:
Texture-based art and sensory tools
Laughter in a no-judgment space
Hands-on creation with no pressure to perform
And you’ve got the recipe for something women rarely get: unfiltered fun.
What We Do
Every month, we host a hands-on, boutique-style workshop designed just for women 18+:
Create something functional and beautiful (trinket dishes, decor, art, gifts)
Use unconventional materials and tactile techniques
Explore texture, scent, color, and sometimes even food
Laugh, cry, and make new connections in a zero-judgment space
BYOB. BYOSnacks. BYOBaggage and leave lighter.
Why Women Keep Coming Back
Our regulars say it best: there’s something powerful about making art beside women who are also trying to find themselves again.
Bring Your Crew. Or Come Solo.
Whether it’s your ride-or-die crew, a sister, or your own brave self, you’re welcome here.
Book your spot at our next Ladies’ Night at Wicked Rae’s and rediscover how fun it is to play, make, and laugh out loud.
