Unleash Creativity with Art Classes in Your City

Melbourne Reptile Keeping Excellence Masterclass Workshop

Sun, Oct 4, 9:00 AM
From The Reptile Keepers Masterclass Social Club

We are hosting our next gathering for The Reptile Keepers Masterclass Social Club, focusing on the practical side of reptile husbandry and maintaining long-term health for our animals. This session is designed to move beyond the basics, offering a space where we can troubleshoot common challenges, share insights on enclosure optimization, and discuss the nuances of refined keeping practices. Whether you are an experienced hobbyist or someone looking to elevate your current standards of care, this workshop is a great opportunity to connect with others who take their commitment to these animals seriously. The afternoon will be informal but focused, providing plenty of time for hands-on discussion and questions. We want this to be a genuine exchange of knowledge where everyone feels comfortable sharing what has worked for them and what hasn't. Our goal is to foster a supportive local network where we can all learn from each other's experiences in a collaborative environment. If you are interested in joining us for this session, please make sure to RSVP at your earliest convenience so we can manage numbers for the space. We look forward to seeing everyone there and hearing about your latest projects.

A Quiet Art Evening

A Quiet Art Evening

Sat, Oct 10, 7:00 AM
From PaintMeet - Community Art Group
5.0

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.
