Alphington Arts

Our first session of Alphington Arts was well attended with 18 people coming along to meet new people and explore basket weaving.

Thanks Kayti for sharing your knowledge!

I have included some photos of a few of the little baskets that were produced.

If you are keen to join in and get arty with a lovely group of creative locals who come together to share skills it costs $40 for the semester … and we have 3 sessions left.

Women in the shed

This semester we have changed the format of our Women in the Shed classes. Instead of a longer course, we are offering two short courses with a focus on building and exploring specific skills ….

Cheese Boards 101

Running from Thursday 1 August for 4 weeks from 10am-12pm, this course will introduce you to hand saws and planes and files, perhaps some drilling … and also teach you about finishing timber - including sanding, staining, oiling etc.

It will set you up to have more confidence to undertake basic timber maintenance or small timber projects around your home.

It costs $145. You can book in here.

Mosaics 101

From Thursday 24 October for 4 weeks from 10am-12pm we’ll be running our Mosaics 101 again. In this course you’ll learn how to tile and grout … super handy skills around the home … whilst making something beautiful! Basic materials are provided, but we encourage you to go to the op shop or dig around at home and find some beautiful patterned ceramics that will make your creation(s) uniquely pop.

Whilst this class will start at the basics for anyone learning new skills - we’re also happy to help you keep exploring the wonderful world of mosaics if you have done it before - and are keen for some company and inspiration.

The cost is $145. You can book in here.
