“connecting our community”
Peace. Flow. Kayaking. Watching the bats. Quiet. Solace.
Local artist Annie Bolitho will be running an event to celebrate National Tree Day.
Join her down by the riverside at Burnley Park on Sunday 28th July 2-3.30pm for some inking among the great trees.
This event is about appreciating the huge role of trees for our wellbeing. Making marks on paper with natural pigments and being together with people who love the river, nature and the power of plant processes!

If you have family doing VCE you might be interested in booking them in to our simulated exam experiences on Saturday mornings throughout October.
They can bring a practise exam paper or two along and we’ll provide 3 hours of strictly timed active supervision to help students:
Get on with actually doing some practise exams
Get used to managing their time in exams, and
Feel more comfortable with formal exam conditions.
Sounds good? Book in here. The sessions will run from 9am-12pm. The cost is $15.
Alphington Arts, our new night time arts group will kick off on Thursday 18 July at 7.30pm. The idea behind this group is that we keep costs down by different people sharing their creative knowledge and skills. We’ll have 4 sessions over the coming semester (2 per term).
And first up we’ll be exploring basket weaving with Kayti Murphy. You may have seen Kayti’s baskets at our makers markets - or bought her teatowels and/or pickled radishes.
Thanks so much Kayti for volunteering to share your knowledge and skills.
So … if you are keen to join in you can join up for the semester here.
And then come along for some low key creative evenings. BYO drinks and/or snacks to share if you are so inclined.
Keen to know what is in the pipeline at ACC for the second half of the year?
We have just put together a new brochure that you can collect from outside the centre or check out on our website.
Here it is! We’ve got lots of creative things on the cards … and some new fitness classes. Take a look. You can book in on our website.
Last year our movie club met in the day. This semester we are going to try early evenings.
Our first date will be on Tuesday 16 July. We will meet at Westgarth Cinema (to take advantage of cheap Tuesday tickets) and then go somewhere local to chat about it afterwards - maybe Kelvins?
If you are interested let us know here and we will add you to the WhatsApp group.
We generally find out the exact details of the movie times and what is showing the previous week - so it is a little bit rushed … Note that you are welcome to put your two bobs in if you have a preference for something you want to see.
We hope you can come along!
