What to Expect

Join us for a relaxed monthly gathering to connect with community and create alongside other art therapists.

Each month we visit a new arts-friendly venue for hire in Melbourne. This is a great opportunity to scope out potential spaces for groups and workshops.

We take a 'choose your own adventure' approach, where you decide how you'd like to use this time together. You might choose to:

  • do some solo making in the company of others

  • co-inquire into a shared experience

  • form a pair or trio to companion one another

  • catch up with other art therapists

  • seek input or encouragement for the next steps in your practice

  • plan a collaborative project...

❋ I provide

  • Tea and coffee

  • Biscuits

  • A modest collection of communal art materials

❋ Please bring along

  • art materials you plan to work with

  • a water bottle

  • snacks if you’d like to nibble as we work
