Update! It's a little cold, so we're moving inside! This session is still drop-in & totally free, but you can enjoy your art-making in the warmth of our heritage building's print studio. See you at WFAC!

This weekend, we are delighted to offer an outdoor printmaking drop-in session as part of our vibrant Pasar Malam/Night Market: Contemporary printmaking from Indonesia and Australia exhibition!
More information here: https://wfac.org.au/whats-on/post/free-drop-in-printmaking-workshop-pasar-malam/

Led by two talented WA printmakers, Vanessa Lombardo and Louise Snook, you’ll explore the exhibition, gather inspiration, and dive into not one but two exciting printmaking techniques. Play with the themes of Creatures and Humours as you create your own unique artworks.

Take home your very own print and add your mark to a collaborative community bunting for everyone to enjoy.

It’s hands-on, creative, and a great way to connect with others. Don’t miss it!

This is a free, drop-in session, with no bookings required.

“Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout with some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven on by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.”

Does this quote from Orwell move you to pick up a pen, or else put fingers to keyboards?! Sure it does!

Enrol in one of our creative writing classes today, and unleash the literary demon within! If you've never written before, or want to take your practice to next level, you'll find the support you need at WFAC. Our wonderful writing tutors Prema Arasu and Brooke Dunnell are published authors, who cultivate genuinely welcoming and inclusive writing communities in their classrooms.
