202 TREEHOUSE
Quieter Spaces for Creative Journeys
Growing in Port Townsend, WA
202 Treehouse is …
for ~Introverts~
A prototype & place for drafting plans to build more workable sanctuaries for solitude, structured experiences, & safer-feeling containers with specific standards for people who are extra-sensitive to stimuli &/or overwhelmed by confusing social situations.
a Mini Press
Making a studious-yet-messy practice of cranking out hand-crafted mini-books, invitingly-scrappy & encouragingly-small journals, juicy little chapbooks, amateur ebooks, & new pocket editions excerpting old classics.
a Next-Draft Nursery
Like a tiny greenhouse for growing words where someone’s next rough (but rarely final) draft can grow: space to write, refine, or simply sketch out plans for the next stage of story.
a Private Library
A getaway where quiet bookish pursuits, study, dreamy reading materials, and individuals who crave them are prioritized and protected: one bookworm at a time.
an Inner-Child Incubator
Snug physical spaces for giving the sensitive kids lost inside overwhelmed adults focused room to hide, space out, read, daydream, rest, & imagine magic ahead on the horizon — all with optional slightly-removed views of the world outside, allowing for manageable access to drop down into it if ready.
a Creative Launch Pad
For whatever this lofty little green spaceship of imagination in downtown Port Townsend can help make happen next.

Current Projects
What’s being worked on in the treehouse right now
Treehouse Formation
who
Private / Solitary Endeavor
what
Setting up the first space as Treehouse Headquarters in #202 at 929 Water Street: creating a business entity, plans, and visions to make this (and eventually more) private treehouse-inspired space(s) both personally rewarding & financially sustainable, while establishing 202 Treehouse as a presence offering quiet value to the local community.
Start date: December 2025 – Currently only space & time for one Treehouse owner/op, but hope to expand in 2027.
Mini Books
who
(mostly) Private / Solitary Endeavor with limited open house / “store” hours / pop-up sales days (ex. for Art Walk / first Saturdays of the month in PT) – Summer 2026
what
Making & sometimes selling (and/or giving away) handmade one-of-a-kind truly-pocket-sized “books” & ephemera as an opportunity to study & string together words of inspiration, participate in downtown culture, & out of curiosity to gauge people’s interest in 202 Treehouse-y pursuits.
