“Connect for mental health” is the theme for Queensland Mental Health Week 2025 (4-12 Oct), and the Creative Connections regular social group know how much fun it is to connect while getting creative.
The group is keen to share what they do and are inviting everyone along to the 7th October group to get creative, and then stay on and share lunch.
It is a safe place for creativity. A gentle way to express. Creating without any pressure. A place for just seeking some quiet time for oneself in the art process. That’s what the group want you to know. No art experience or skills necessary. The group is open to all creative minds, amateurs and ‘recovering’ perfectionists alike. Feel encouraged to join even if you think “I can’t draw” or “I can’t go to that” or if you are really tired and worn out then come along and find solace in being able to play with colours on paper.
Group members are also displaying works around the Lawson Shed and Community House for Qld Mental Health Week. So even if you can’t make the 7th, drop by to see the exhibition.
The group is always happy for newcomers. It’s on every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month 10am-12pm. See monthly calendar for dates.
