Presented by Randwick City Council, Sector Sessions is a year-round program of workshops and drop-in sessions designed to support and strengthen creative practice. Led by industry professionals, it offers a space for artists to build skills, share knowledge, and connect with others navigating the realities of creative work.

About the Session
Whether you’re a writer ready to generate new ideas or an artist eager for new insights into your work, this workshop will help you connect more deeply with your creative practice.

Through a series of generative exercises, you'll explore multifaceted aspects of your creativity. You’ll also gain a new understanding of how story works and how to use it more effectively, no matter what medium you’re working in. Suitable for both practicing artists/writers and anyone wanting to connect with (or reawaken) their creative self.

Come prepared to write with pen/paper (or preferred device).
