The SPOTLIGHT Series is a program held in the Leigh Scott Room at the Baillieu Library, sharing specialist knowledge from invited guests, curators and archivists with a chosen display of artefacts currently part of the Archives and Special Collections.

This lunch time program is a generative hour created to pause and reflect on how we interpret history and its context through the lens of the items held within the Archives and Special Collections, housed at the Baillieu Library and the Archives repository and spanning 37kms in distance collectively.

Selected by archivists, librarians, curators, researchers, academics and artists every session will spotlight the wonder this ephemera holds alongside creating an informal space for engaging in critical conversations, reflective discussions, slow looking, creative workshops, talks and much more.

WHEN: Fridays (monthly, from August), 2pm-4pm

TWMA invites participants to join us on a series of extended drawing workshops inspired by the Country, landscape and the surrounds of Tarrawarra Museum of Art and centred on the theme of slow-moving water led by an accomplished TWMA artist educator. The intimate drawing sessions will begin with mindfulness exercises designed to help connect with the present moment, fellow participants and the natural surroundings. Participants will focus on creating a sustained drawing of a single subject, working outside in the grounds of TWMA and within its premises. Throughout the workshops, you will receive group and one-on-one guidance on techniques and processes developed around considered observation and with participants encouraged to disconnect from their mobile devices.

WHEN: Saturdays

Analog Art Club at The Dax Centre invites you to slow down, disconnect from your phone and reconnect with yourself and others through art activities and mindful movement.

Experience the joy of creativity and mindfulness — no screens, just art and connection!

WHEN: Thursdays (monthly), 1pm - 2pm

Join us for a new monthly lunchtime activity designed to help you slow down, switch off your screens, and connect in real life—through art.

Bring your friends and colleagues along during your lunch hour and take a breather from the day to reflect, discuss, and experience art together. You’ll share insights, see and discover new things and even do a little making of your own inspired by the art around you.

No art experience necessary—just a little curiosity and conversation.
