Analog Art Club

Analog Art Club is a statewide initiative that invites Victorians to slow down, switch off their screens and connect in real life — through art. Hosted by galleries across Victoria, these phone-free events offer a welcoming space to reflect, discuss and experience art together, making creativity social, accessible and refreshingly analog.

This program encourages deeper connection with both art and community by fostering genuine, screen-free engagement in a relaxed and inclusive environment. As part of the Analog Art Club, join us on a series of extended drawing workshops inspired by the Country, landscape and the surrounds of Tarrawarra Museum of Art and its Collection. Centred on the theme of the Wurundjeri seasons that are designed to inspire a deeper respect for Country, First Knowledges, place and contemporary art and culture.

Led by an accomplished TWMA artist and educator. These intimate drawing sessions will begin with mindfulness exercises designed to help connect with the present moment, fellow participants and the natural surroundings. Throughout the workshops, participants will receive group and one-on-one guidance on techniques and processes developed around considered observation, encouraging a disconnection from screen and mobile devices.

First Friday of the month at 2 – 4 pm

Upcoming Analog Art Club dates and times:

Friday 4 December – Watercolour Drawing with Jonathan Vyssaritis and James Lynch

Join us on Friday 4 December, 2–4pm, for the final Analog Art Club of 2026 and celebrate the close of the year with an afternoon of creativity, connection and slow looking. Set against the backdrop of TarraWarra Museum of Art, this special workshop invites you to explore the meditative practice of botanical watercolour painting.

Led by artist and educator Jonathan Vyssaritis alongside curator James Lynch, you'll create your own watercolour studies inspired by the diverse plant life found throughout the museum grounds. Whether you're picking up a paintbrush for the first time or returning to a much-loved creative practice, this workshop offers a chance to slow down, observe closely, and immerse yourself in the beauty of the natural world. Light refreshments will be served as we celebrate the end of another wonderful year of Analog Art Club.
