Queer Art Club is back at St Kilda Library!

Queer Art Club is a space for our Queer Community to come together, share our experiences and stories. With Queer related themes, we will have an opportunity to reflect on our lived experiences- celebrating our joys, expressing our grief and learning about our community.

Unlike typical art-making spaces, we don’t instruct you on how to make art- we encourage you to find what feels right, without the pressure of it looking a certain way.

We invite you to explore the weekly theme through art-making with many different materials on offer; collage, watercolors, soft pastels, oil pastels, paints and much more.

Each week we offer a prompt, which asks you to self-reflect in a supportive and empowering way. Maybe you are invited to reflect on your strengths, or the things that make you uniquely you. Sometimes you might be asked to focus on the parts of your life that needs a little more energy or support. Each prompt is offered to lift you up and get your weekend off to an empowering start!

You will find yourself in a group setting, chatting and connecting amongst other legends and chilled beats. The facilitator introduces you to Art Club and checks in on you throughout the session. They also facilitate the group dialogue at the end of the session. This is where we come together and share our artworks, what we’ve come to know about theme and ourselves. This supportive space is created by everyone within the group, and it is really lovely to share and listen.

Art club is a proudly inclusive space and welcomes all members of the community, regardless of artistic skill. We believe that everyone is an innate artist.

Curious? Come along and find your expression.
