Silver Collage Club

Come along to the Silver Collage Club - a fortnightly creative group for senior women with disabilites.

ABOUT SILVER COLLAGE CLUB

Silver Collage Club is a fortnightly creative group for senior women with disabilites that is perfect for unwinding and getting creative. Each session includes a short presentation, time to make your own collages, and the chance to practice mindfulness, relax and unwind. All materials provided so you can just bring yourself, and if you like, your favourite extras to collage!

Silver Collage Club is facilitated by Robyn Davis and presented by Women with Disabilities ACT.

We have received funding from the ACT Government Community Services Directorate for this program.

EVENT DETAILS

The program will run for 6 sessions, fortnightly on Wednesdays between 1.30pm-4pm.

The dates are 11 February, 25 February, 11 March, 25 March, 8 April, & 22 April.

You can register for individual sessions, or for all of them!

You are also welcome to arrive late or leave early if you need to.

Tea, coffee and cookies will be provided. You are welcome to bring your own food and drinks to this event.
