Programs, events and workshops
Level Up public programs
School holiday program
The Level Up School Holidays Program is for littlies (5 to 10 years) and tweens (11 years and up) - a mix of young and more experienced artists will provide interactive workshops. We warmly welcome children, teenagers and families to participate in creative experiences on offer.
Workshop program will be held in January, April, July and September 2020.
Arty Bites
Arty Bites is a monthly series of art workshops aimed at providing access to art experiences to young people and adults within the local community. Monthly workshops are facilitated by past Level Up participants and local young artists. Past workshops have included watercolour, wool weaving, and illustration.

Creating in Company is a social networking session for creatives. This gathering invites the artist to bring along a current art work to continue whilst socialising with other creatives.
