Get ready to cut, layer, glue, and create! In this hands-on junk journal workshop, you’ll learn how to bind your own journal pages and construct a soft cover from scratch.

This workshop is all about creative freedom and experimentation; there’s no right or wrong way to make a junk journal. You’ll be guided step-by-step, with plenty of room to follow your intuition and personal style. You’ll leave with a handmade journal and the skills and confidence to continue creating at home.

We’ve teamed up with Australia’s brightest creative minds to share their knowledge and help teach you a new skill. From 3D printing and stencil art through to music and gardening – life skills and personal development through to cooking doughnuts and mushroom foraging, we offer a broad range of fun and creative short courses to suit our time poor lives. We will inspire you to pick up that pen, paintbrush, hammer or sewing machine and flick the switch that will kickstart a whole new way of life.Community values lie at the heart of our project. We collaborate with local artists and industry experts to teach classes and utilise local suppliers for any materials needed. We also provide a creative environment for emerging artists to produce and sell work, and meet like minded individuals. Work-Shop will be a space for everyone, with a rotating schedule of art shows, information nights on local issues and a whole range of events and community initiatives.
