YahooCalling all recovering alcoholics and addicts, sufferers of anxiety, survivors of abuse, needers of a safe space and general all-around party people! (What, too much?)
Introducing: The BlogHer Serenity Suite. Room 4307
The annual BlogHer conference is a smorgasbord of socialization, from parties to panels to non-stop squee-ing, and it can be as overwhelming as it is exhilarating. The Serenity Suite in Room 4307, we hope, will be an oasis. Open throughout the conference, this BlogHer-sponsored space will allow anyone who needs it to take a moment or two in the peace and quiet to rejuvenate. This will be a no-frills safe place to simply sit and connect with fellow bloggers in a low-key environment, and then return to the parties or sessions refreshed and ready to join in on all that BlogHer has to offer.
Stop by Room 4307 whenever you please for complimentary coffee, tea or water, and to simply relax. The BlogHer Serenity Suite will be open on Thursday from 7pm-10pm, Friday from 10am-10pm (closed 4:30-6:30pm for keynotes), and on Saturday from 10am-10pm (closed 5pm-6pm for keynote).
