The Literary Link Up Tour | Art of Candle-making | Mika Ahlecia in Los Angeles, California, offers a sensory-driven evening that pairs live author conversation with hands-on candle and fragrance craft. Located in Los Angeles, CA, this 90-minute, adults-only workshop blends clear instruction, guided scent blending, and a communal making session culminating in a take-home candle. BLUMOON SCENTS and collaborator RESE ALISA program the evening around three primary features: a step-by-step candle build using premium waxes and fragrance oils; a live author discussion led by the featured writer; and a curated group conversation that turns strangers into a small creative community. Capacity is limited to 25 to preserve hands-on coaching and attention to scent safety, and events run approximately 90 minutes with check-in recommended 10–15 minutes early. What distinguishes this stop in Los Angeles is the deliberate pairing of craft technique with literary context: while you learn practical steps—measuring, melting, pouring, balancing top and base notes—the author conversation frames scent as a tool for memory and narrative. That marriage of skills and story makes it a cultural complement to Los Angeles’ vibrant reading series and gallery nights, offering an evening that is social, tactile, and quietly educative. Tickets are sold in tiers—General, Signature (includes a complimentary cocktail), and VIP (includes swag and priority perks)—and all sales are final, so plan accordingly. Accessibility is noted: the experience is ADA accessible and the operator requests allergy notifications at [email protected] to accommodate sensitivities to fragrance and essential oils. For visitors staying in Los Angeles, this workshop reads like a perfect evening plan between daytime exploration of the Griffith Park trails or art districts and a late-night food crawl. It is low-impact on the city’s environment compared with larger productions and it leaves each attendee with a handmade object that doubles as a sensible souvenir. Add-on purchases—extra 6 oz candles, premium gift boxes, and featured book bundles—are available for shoppers looking to extend the experience. Why book it: if you want an evening that combines a creative craft, a tactile keepsake, and direct engagement with a writer in a grown-up setting, this BLUMOON SCENTS Literary Link Up stop is an efficient, well-paced choice.
