Trentwood's Talk and Tea!
​
Our Next Talk & Tea in September. Meet a local artist and learn to paint! Join us for a special Talk & Tea during Adult Learners Week with our talented Trentwood tutor, Camila. Originally from Colombia, Camila is an artist with a passion for acrylic painting and Australia’s unique flora and fauna. Hear about her journey as an artist and enjoy a hands-on session where you’ll create your own mini canvas to take home!
​

Walk from the Hub
​
Join us for a relaxed and friendly walk around the local area, starting from the Hub. We’ll walk for about 45 minutes at an easy pace. Perfect for a chat and a bit of fresh air before finishing up with a well-earned coffee and catch-up at a nearby café. A great way to stay active, meet new people, and enjoy your neighbourhood!​​
We're currently looking for a volunteer to help lead the group – get in touch if you're interested!

Balwyn North Repair Cafe
Got a favourite item (household, electrical, mechanical, furniture, clothing/jewellery, toy, or bike) that is damaged or no longer works? Don’t throw it away – visit our Repair Café. Our aim is to:
-Bring together people who fix things with people who want things fixed.
-Encourage people to fix faulty items instead of increasing landfill.
- Create more Fixers by teaching you our tricks and techniques, helping you understand safety where appropriate, and giving you the courage to give it a go!
-Reduce amount of discarded items before their time.
Bring your broken or serviceable items from home, and together with our volunteer specialists (aka Fixers), start making repairs.
The third Sunday of every month, 18 May, 15 Jun & 20 Jul 10am – 12pm. To confirm the café is meeting, please visit their Facebook page at facebook.com/northbalwynrepaircafe or email at northbalwynrepaircafe@gmail.com or visit us at the Hub
