Let’s Make It Personal - Engaging Your Community

Want to turn casual followers into a loyal, active community? Join us for a hands-on, deep-dive workshop designed to take your community engagement from abstract concept to actionable plan.

Following Inner West Council’s Creative Toolbox Learning Lab and by popular demand, Inner West Creative Network are bringing community engagement expert Wanyika Mshila back! She brings a practical, relationship-driven approach to audience building, helping artists move beyond marketing alone to create genuine connection, relevance and long-term engagement with communities.

Speaking to community engagement as an artist differs from how organisations speak about it. Wanyika will show you how to lean into your artist superpower, tease out the nuances and use that relatable edge. In this interactive session—presented in partnership with Inner West Council as part of the Creative Toolbox series—you’ll move past theory and actually start drafting your customised community engagement strategy on the spot.

What you’ll get out of it:

Concrete results: Walk away with the initial blueprint of your engagement strategy already written.
Peer collaboration: Share ideas and gather fresh perspectives from fellow creatives.
Expert feedback: Get direct guidance and advice on your draft from Wanyika.

If you are an artist or creative struggling with building and engaging your community, don’t miss the chance to refine your approach, test your ideas in a supportive space, and build a strategy that resonates with audiences.
