SUMMARY:Bare Minimum - Life Drawing
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Incubator Creative Hub\nKeen for a dose of creative mindfulness? \nSuitable for beginner artists through to advanced\, these relaxed monthly sessions provide a fabulous opportunity to hone your observational drawing skills. The session will be hosted by long standing Incubator collaborator and talented artist\, Damien Kurth. He will be there to offer demonstrations\, support\, hints\, challenges and feedback for those who want it. \nWe will provide basic drawing supplies and a live model. Bring a mate\, your favourite drawing materials and refreshments. See ya there! \n*Out for respect for the model and the life drawing process\, this is a closed workshop. Please arrive with time to settle in before the workshop begins and doors close at 6pm. \nA word from the The Incubator: We are always striving to try make art opportunities more affordable and accessible for the community. At the same time we are also working to pay artists and collaborators fairly\, maintain our spaces and provide the necessary materials and resources. This intimate monthly gathering\, is a self-sustaining series. It needs a minimum number of participants to break even and anything above that goes toward the aforementioned necessities for future sessions. We think the Bare Minimum Life Drawing experience is unique one – offering extremely knowledgeable tutelage in a vibrant gallery setting amidst a curated exhibition of inspired artworks. You won’t be disappointed! \nFind out more

SUMMARY:Afterschool Sew Love Club
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: The Incubator Creative Hub\nThis is your opportunity to learn to sew\, flex your creativity\, have some fun crafting and take home some special\, unique items and garments\, made by you! \nEach session we will have a special project to work on (patterns and fabrics included). If you’d like to work on a project that takes longer you can use these sessions for extra help on that journey. All sewing levels welcome! \nSarah Sew Love is a self proclaimed “hype girl for YOUR sustainable sewing journey”! She’s been sewing\, blogging\, gramming and teaching sewing for over 10 years through her sewcial enterprise Sew Love and she’s now calling Tauranga home. Sarah’s known for popping up workshops all over NZ; alongside markets\, conferences\, schools\, community houses & recycle centres to share her passion for sewing skills and sustainable living. “DIYing the reusables we need\, repairing the things we love\, embracing sewing slow and sewing together with others – it all makes our lives more special!” In recent years she’s mostly known for her sellout upcycled scrap bum bags and dancing around on instagram but hosting workshops is her homebase of happiness. Rest assured the energy is just the same in real life so come join one of her workshops this winter in our Social Fabric room. With big smiles and rainbow fabric scraps\, her workshops always provide a safe space and encouragement for everyone’s creativity and self expression through sewing. \nCheck out Sarah’s website – www.sewlove.nz \nFind out more

SUMMARY:The Feedback Lab
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: The Incubator Creative Hub\nSTOP MARKING YOUR OWN HOMEWORK! \nIt’s time to unlock your creative noncritical voice. \nIntroducing the Feedback Lab 2026/27 monthly sessions. \nThe Feedback Lab invites artists of many different disciplines and levels to connect\, explore\, and share information ideas and processes in a relaxed non-judgemental environment. \nLead by Carol Bisset\, the Feedback Lab provides a safe place in which to share fresh perspectives on your own and other artists work. Throughout the year there will be a select group of guest speakers who will introduce us to their unique journeys as practising artists. \n“I’m really pleased to hear the Feedback Lab might be returning. \nWhat made it different for me was the intentional focus on constructive dialogue. It created a space where artists could share work and receive considered feedback from fresh perspectives. That process encouraged deeper reflection and brought valuable analytical insight into my own practice. I especially appreciated the opportunity to connect with other artists in Tauranga Moana in a meaningful way; not just socially\, but through critical and creative exchange. \nCarol is an outstanding facilitator. She creates a respectful\, responsive environment where people feel safe to speak honestly. Her ability to guide discussion while allowing space for diverse viewpoints is a real strength. \nGrassroots\, inclusive initiatives like this are vital for sustaining a healthy and connected arts community. They make critical conversation accessible and strengthen relationships within the local creative sector. ” \n– Fiorella Silva Perez. \nFind out more
