Event description

Presented by Local Peoples as part of Melbourne Design Week 

“The joy of finding novelty through play is part of what makes us creative and innovative creatures, which is really important for our ability to adapt to a changing world.” — Dr. Stuart Brown, Founder of the National Institute of Play.

College of the Curious is an experimental obstacle course by Local Peoples applying multidisciplinary expertise and tools for creative thinking that can be missed in traditional education.

The obstacle course will explore students' skills, attitudes and alternative thinking within a unique, learning landscape shaped for curiosity. Bring an open mind — Your ATARs and Uber rating won’t help you here.

To celebrate your graduation, be sure to join us for a drink for the Launch of Matters Journal Issue Four. Spots are limited, sign up today!

College Of The Curious is the first iteration of Local Peoples independent research project: ‘The Future Of Learning’. 

This event is wheelchair accessible. For questions or requests regarding accessibility, please email hello@localpeoples.com.

The event is one of three exciting initiatives hosted by Local Peoples on March 14th, along with 100 Jobs of the Future and the Matters Journal Issue Four Launch. It will take place in the North Magdalen Laundry within the heritage-listed Abbotsford Convent precinct as part of Melbourne Design Week, an initiative of the Victorian Government in collaboration with the NGV.
