Co-Design Workshop TWO

The Black Summer Fires deeply affected our community and Paint the Town is hosting a community two co-design workshops for people to talk about their experiences of the Black Summer Fires to help shape the design of a Paint the Town mural. We want to hear the voices of those who experienced and are still experiencing the aftermath of the 2019 fires.

Led by, Alexandra McCarthy, Psychologist and Art Therapist from Wildflower Holistic with Joe Quilter, Creative Director of Paint the Town, each workshop will gather the input of community members. Come to one or both. Alex will guide how community voices will be best represented and support individuals through the process.
