Craft Workshops Melbourne

Depth, discovery and discussion: Artificial Intelligence

**We're bringing you a new series in 2026: *Depth, Discovery and Discussion*.** Girls Who Boss Melbourne is creating a space for real talk, shared wisdom and genuine connection — and you’re invited. This new series is all about coming together as a community to explore meaningful topics in a way that feels safe, intentional and refreshingly honest. This month's theme? **Artificial intelligence** \- it's on our mind\, and in the copies of the Harvard Business Review we read\, and it's time we talked about it\. The uses for it\, the fears around it\, the ethics and all\. This isn’t a speech, seminar or expert-led workshop. It’s a guided conversation shaped by all of us. Girls Who Boss will bring a set of thoughtful prompts and questions to spark dialogue, but the insight will come from the stories, perspectives and lived experiences we each bring to the table. Expect a day of: ✨ Deep chats without the pressure ✨ Discovery through shared perspectives ✨ Discussion that feels grounding, supportive and fun ✨ Connecting with women who want to grow, reflect and boss up together Whether you come with something on your mind or simply want to listen and connect, this is a space for curiosity, vulnerability and community-led learning. Come join the conversation — we can’t wait to dive deeper with you.

Sketchy Behaviour with Roxy Rawhide (Creative Art Workshop)

Adults have basically been robbed of the right to play. Creativity started needing a purpose, a product, or at least a gallery invite. Meanwhile, it’s human to dance, it’s human to sing, and it’s human to draw, especially poorly! Sketchy Behaviour is here to break that spell. ([Link to tickets here](https://www.trybooking.com/DIGHO)) Doors open at 6pm, settle in and get your drinks at the bar (mocktails available). At 7pm, the night begins: • Guided drawing activities with your host, prompts and visual inspiration provided • Three activities/games per night a mix of collaborative chaos and solo scribbling • Breaks between rounds to regroup, hit the bathroom, top up a drink, grab some nibbles, and mingle with fellow doodlers It’s all about connecting through process rather than polishing a product. Expect laughter, strange drawings, and surprising conversations. In a world drowning in increasingly polished AI art, making something imperfect is a revolutionary act. Supplies provided. Masks welcome. Sharing your weird creations, highly recommended. Come draw like a kid, laugh like a fool, and leave with memories instead of masterpieces. Note: Pride of our Footscray is located on the first floor of a building with no elevator and is therefore not wheelchair accessible. We apologise for our reduced accessibility.

Workshop: Becoming Your Preferred Self

Are you interested in personal growth, wellbeing, and living more intentionally? Join us for an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)-based workshop facilitated by a trained counsellor.

This workshop is designed to be practical, reflective, and welcoming to people at all stages of their journey. Whether you're feeling a little stuck, looking for greater direction, or simply curious about ACT, we'd love to have you join us. Tickets are $20 and available via Eventbrite: [https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/workshop-becoming-your-preferred-self-tickets-1989631752130](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/workshop-becoming-your-preferred-self-tickets-1989631752130) LGBT+ Social Hub Melbourne is a queer community organisation focused on creating meaningful opportunities for connection, wellbeing, friendship, and personal growth.

Winter Solstice Craftanoon

The days are getting cooler. It's the shortest day of the year, the perfect time to cosy up with a blanket and maybe a hot beverage to get some crafting done before the days start getting longer. Soon, we'll be complaining that it's too hot again. Do you have any crafts you're working on? Maybe some half-finished craft projects lying around? Or a new craft that you want to try out? Bring them to the Craftanoon to work on while chatting with your fellow Discworld fans. When: 2:00 p.m. Saturday, June 21st Where: The Mended Drum voice channel on Discord Bring: Your craft projects and a warm beverage if you like
