Yup! On again this Saturday morning! Weโll be talking about all the lessons in creativity you may have learned this week either through doing the bookmark assignment OR some other activity in your week. Maybe you got resourceful when cooking dinner, maybe you invented a new game to entertain the kids, maybe you just worked out a more efficient way of doing something! Whatever it was, come share your insights with us all! ๐๐๐ผโค๏ธ

Oh hi! How goes it? Dropping in to let you know about a new project Iโm running every Saturday morning!
Creative Chats is a facilitated conversation for artists, makers and creatives every Saturday morning at 11am AEST for 90 minutes.
The first few will be intro sessions to get to meet other creatives in Canberra and around Australia.
Each week will have a focus topic which can be as strictly or as loosely followed as the group desires.
Only 10 spots per session! Make sure you book via the link in the bio, each session is pay-what-you-can-afford.
I hope to see you there! Will post more about what to expect over the week ahead ๐๐
