Phagura

the curious minds society

Phagura (itch in Greek) is an independent side project of ITCH and Stav Papadaki. An experiment created by responsible adults with a very irresponsible urge: to free the kid inside them.

The kid who just wants to play without purpose, deadlines, or other adult, shitty concepts like perfection, right and wrong, good and bad. The kid who does things simply for the joy of it.

We believe those kids are still in there, waiting for a safe space in this mad world to come out.

So Phagura aims to become that space. A home for kidults with curious minds, open hearts, creative itches, existential crises, and the urge to feel truly connected (and maybe a little happier, too).

A society of Don Quixotes, people who feel too much and dream of a more tender, communal, inspired, and meaningful way of everyday living.

Phagura : the feeling we are still alive.

How does it work.

It doesn’t.

It simply exists and evolves organically, guided by intuition.

We’ll start by gathering in a cozy Athenian home, around a table or on the carpet.
Without internet.
With creators as hosts and creative people as guests who share the same phagura as we do.

We’ll read books, discuss, burn candles, brains, souls, bridges with the outside world for a couple of hours.
We’ll drink wine, coffee, tea, or milk with cookies, and write freely. With pencils. Again.

We’ll sniff the paper.
We’ll experiment with the texture of texts and words, while listening to vinyl records and playlists we’ve grown with.

And hopefully, through all this, we’ll create, connect, dream, and share.
Feelings.
Thoughts.
Selves.

Hopefully, we’ll become a parea of proud kidults.

A couple of hours. Long enough to forget the clock and focus, short enough to long for the next time.

For now, Phagura grows slowly, through invitations and word of mouth. If you’re interested, reach out at hello@phagura.com we’d love to hear from you. Until we officially announce our events, follow along and stay curious.
No, it’s not free. There is a participation fee that covers the creators, the materials, and the time and care we put into each session. We’ll aim to offer sessions at different price ranges so more people can join.

There are no silly questions, so if our FAQs don’t answer yours, please reach out at hello@phagura.gr
