A Creative Morning in Nature— *spring landscape sketching this month* :) (Self-Guided) Saturday, 12 September, 10:00am — 12:00pm University of Divinity (outside gardens) 90 Albion Road, Box Hill 3128 This is a quiet, self-guided (untutored) space to slow down, create, and spend time alongside others. Please bring your own materials. It’s a morning to create unhurriedly in the beautiful spring — 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.
