Richmond - Information Night - Common Ground Program

A Quiet Art Evening

A Quiet Art Evening (Self-Guided) Saturday, 10 October, 6:00pm — 8:00pm Venue: 5 Ellingworth Parade, Box Hill (upstairs) This is a quiet, self-guided (untutored) space to slow down, create, and spend time alongside others. Bring your own materials and something you’d like to work on. It’s an evening to create unhurriedly in a shared space — to make, reflect, and simply be. Through art, we hope to create a gentle space for connection, encouragement, and shared presence. We hope this will become a simple monthly rhythm — a place to keep returning to, to create, connect, and enjoy the process together. If this resonates with you, feel free to RSVP here. PS. A $5 contribution each participant will help cover venue hire, as well as tea/coffee, and biscuits. Limited places — only for people who RSVP. If RSVP is full, message us directly to check availability.
