Winter Goddess Night
Saturday, Feb. 21, 6pm to 8pm
Winter Goddess Night is a cozy, restorative self-care event in Downtown Cuyahoga Falls designed for women who are craving rest, connection, and something a little magical during the winter months. Whether you come with a Valentine, a Galentine, or simply for yourself, this evening is an invitation to slow down and be deeply cared for.
Guests will enjoy a calming natural henna session with Nikki of The Artful Cricket, an all-natural, skin-soothing mini facial with Gina of Belle Alchemy, and a relaxing chair massage provided by Dana of Nourishing Massage. Each element is thoughtfully chosen to support relaxation, presence, and gentle indulgence.
This intimate, ticketed event is designed to feel unrushed and welcoming — a meaningful alternative to a night out at a bar or restaurant. Light snacks and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided. Guests are welcome to bring an adult beverage of their choice, with the understanding that it must be finished or disposed of before leaving.

Tickets are limited. Advance registration is required.
