Thanks Sue and thanks Sandy and Steve for donating them!  They were fantastic on the footpath during JJJ. Guest were able to sit in the sun reading their papers, sipping on green tea (from green cups). It was so cosmopolitan!

Warwick Collective’s new cultural hub takes shape

Daily News

“FITZROY St has been a hive of activity over the past week, now the Warwick Collective has begun to renovate its new community space.

The micro community aims to use the new shop front (previously Oh So Natural) as a cultural hub for Warwick residents.

Collective president Elizabeth Ure said along with food, music and movie nights, fashion upcycling gatherings and repair cafes would be held on alternate weeks.

Currently the group is asking local artisans interested in selling their wares in the space to get in contact with the collective.

“We need artists and crafters with some connection to the local area to create this space we built on several community meetings,” Ms Ure said.

Ms Ure expected the shop front to be open early next month.

Since the group’s conception at the beginning of this year the collective membership has continued to grow daily.

“Everyone here has different interests but a common characteristic when it comes to sharing, being involved and volunteering,” vice-president Julia Keogh said.

Check them out on Facebook to find out more about the Collective’s new space, how to become a member or to sell stock.”
