Alcoves & Social Session

Mindful Meets: Summoning the Writer

Enjoy some dedicated time for a creative reset centred around real conversation and connection; and leave with something that future you will love and appreciate! 

Join us at the beginning of the festival for a relaxed social gathering, where you’ll have the chance to connect with others, reflect on your creative practice, and craft a written or artistic piece for your future self.  

This is a phone-free space, so you can fully switch off and be present. Open to everyone, wherever you’re at in your creative journey. We’ll have basic writing and art materials ready, or feel free to bring your own.

Ashley Misso

It’s Ash! 31 this year, Singaporean born and raised to a Chinese mum, Dad is Eurasian (German/Portuguese/Irish etc). I have family all over Australia and it was only a matter of time I found myself here as I always felt a special connection to Melbourne.

I created @ttttp as my way of immersing myself in the community when I first moved here almost 3 years ago now, and it’s so heartwarming to see how it’s grown and continue to grow within this safe space. We’re so excited to see what else the universe (or my brain) has in store!
