Made @ The Place

A FREE Creative Arts Program For Young People

Dates: Wednesdays over 4 weeks. First workshop series running from the 3rd - 24th of May

Time: 4pm - 6pm

Cost: FREE


We're very excited to be offering a FREE after school creative arts program for
young people aged 12 - 24. 

 

Made @ The Place provides young people with the opportunity to learn, create, exhibit, and sell their creative work. Participants will learn specific creative skills over 4 weeks, in a fun and supportive environment encouraging positive peer relationships, self-expression, and belonging. 

 

The four-week workshop sessions will be held on Wednesday evenings from 4pm – 6pm. There are 8 workshop sessions in total over a two-year period, each featuring a local artist and genre. By the end of each workshop, participants will create a self-determined piece of art including painting, drawing, or digital art to exhibit at The Place and through an online store.


The first workshop series is ‘Portraiture with Alana Lerch’ running from the 3rd of May - 24th of May. 


Due to funding from the NSW Government this program is entirely FREE and all art supplies, food and refreshments will be provided.

The Place is proud to be the first community organisation in NSW to take part in the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program, supporting more people in our community to get connected and build confidence online. Through the program, we helped allocate 30 refurbished laptops to local people in our community, including seniors, carers, people with disability and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Participants receive 12 months of free data, digital skills training and IT Support to help them make the most of their device. Delivered by NSW Telco Authority in partnership with WorkVentures and Good Things Australia, the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program is part of the NSW Government’s Digital Inclusion Strategy. The program helps bridge the digital divide by giving people access to the essential technology, connectivity and support needed in today’s digital world. We’re incredibly grateful for this opportunity for our local community and want to thank everyone who made it possible.
