ACTTAA members, we’ve got something blooming excit ACTTAA members, we’ve got something blooming exciting. 
We’re now running FREE workshops – because the weather is lovely, the days are warm, and… well, everything else seems to be getting more expensive 😅
So why not come along, have a laugh, get a little creative (with some gentle guidance from our tutor), and put together some floral delights for our upcoming exhibition?  No pressure, just good vibes and maybe slightly too much chatting – but honestly, that’s what community is all about.

Curious? Come join us at our meetings on the second Wednesday of each month at the Philip Seniors Club from 5:30pm.

Bring yourself, your textile creativity skill , and come@make@some new friends. ……….. #textileart #crochet #knitting #recycledclothing #whatsonincanberra

It’s never too early to start making, creating, an It’s never too early to start making, creating, and bringing ideas to life—because the world keeps turning and time flies faster than we think!
Right now, ACTTAA members are buzzing with energy as they prepare for their annual exhibition this September—made even more extraordinary as they celebrate their 50th anniversary. This isn’t just another exhibition; it’s a truly special milestone, filled with passion, history, and creativity.
As members, we are constantly learning, growing, and nurturing new ideas—planting seeds of knowledge that continue to flourish. That’s why this year’s theme, “Garden of Threaded Delights’ feels so meaningful. It represents not only what we create, but how we evolve together—cultivating inspiration, imagination, and community every step of the way.

Make more fun; The annual ACTTAA Galong Retreat wa Make more fun; The annual ACTTAA Galong Retreat was over themed, over the top and way too much fun. Each night was a different theme with a Pink Bar, Silver Screen dinner and Hawaiian evening to end a huge fun weekend of creativity. The Silver Screen event had us dressed in sparkles, with some reaching a high bar dressing as screen icons, and even the red carpet turned up. We have all left with some new skills forged new friendships, and a continuing sense of community as we hit the road for home. #Retreat#

Hold onto your yarn, folks – another thrilling mon Hold onto your yarn, folks – another thrilling monthly meeting is in the books!
Tonight, we time-traveled back to the Viking age (minus the pillaging) with a fabulous guest speaker who introduced us to card weaving – an ancient craft that proves Vikings weren’t just good at raiding... they were also pretty snazzy with their textiles. Who knew?
After that, we dove into some juicy updates on our 50th Annual Exhibition coming up next year – yes, the big 5-0! 🎉 Plans are in full swing, and let me tell you, the excitement in the room was so contagious, it should’ve come with a warning label.
And to top it all off, our Show and Tell was a dazzling display of creativity, talent, and “how-did-you-even-make-that?!” moments. Seriously, if talent were yarn, we’d all be tangled in it.
Until next time – keep crafting and keep smiling!

We caught up with friends, swapped stories, learned to crochet (all you need is a ball of wool and a little patience 😄), and showed off our latest creations in a truly fabulous Show and Tell!
It’s still chilly and dark out, but that’s just more reason to knit like the wind before spring arrives 🌸🧶 From bold fashion pieces to intricate embroidery, everyone brought their A-game.
Everyone is welcome – whether you’re a total beginner, a seasoned pro, or just here for the vibes! Join us every second Wednesday of the month at 6 PM at the Philip Seniors Club (and no, you don’t have to be a senior – we’re just young at art 😉).
