This isn’t a booking. It’s a beginning. The Possibility Calendar is a map of moments, not a clock: one or two encounters a month through 2027, each one something you can join, give, or bring to your people. Mark your moment of possibility, or give someone else theirs.

JoinA seat for you

Pick a moment below and save your seat. Small groups, real conversation, a table full of supplies. No homework, no performance.

GiveA recess, not more stuff

Give someone a Recess Pass, a One-on-One Recess with Dr. KP, or a subscription. It arrives as a printable permission slip, ready to tuck into a card.

BringFor teams, boards, schools

Book a date for your staff, board, school, or library. Reserve a 2027 date by December 31 at the 2026 rate.

In-person passes are good for any 2027 workshop; online passes for any online session. Can’t be in the room? Ask, and some gatherings can be designed to include you from home. Every pass makes a lovely gift: add their name at checkout and a printable permission slip follows. Dates and places are announced here and in the Possibility Pages newsletter.


For schools and districts

For schools and districts: every Creative Recess session is PD-ready. Sessions run 2 to 6 contact hours and focus on student voice, belonging, civic learning, creative practice, and research skills. Each participant receives a certificate of professional learning listing date, content, and contact hours, for credit through your school or district’s approval. Book January in-service or summer PD now, on site or online.
