Creative Cohort | Hubs
Being an artist can feel isolating, especially when you’re working solo. Hubs are here to change that.
The Hubs bring together small groups of artists to meet regularly, support each other, stay accountable and celebrate progress together.
If you’d like to join a hub or start a hub – email us to let us know you’re interested and we’ll be in touch.
Creative Cohort | Connect
Meet and mingle with other creatives in Walyalup Fremantle. Producer Tuesdays are now happening on the last Tuesday of each month from April through to September.
Connect events are informal catch-ups hosted by the City of Fremantle, scheduled on an ad-hoc basis and shared here and through the Creative Cohort Thread mailing list.
Have something to share?
You’re welcome to submit your own creative resources, events or announcements to be included in the Creative Cohort Thread mailout.
