Looking to get creative, fix things, or start a hands-on project?
Join our free weekly Tinkering Sessions at ACAVA’s Maxilla Men’s Shed in North Kensington.
These informal drop-in sessions are open to people of all genders and offer a welcoming, creative environment to:
- Work on your own practical or creative projects
- Learn and share skills like woodworking, DIY, and craft
- Meet new people in a friendly, supportive setting
- Use tools and equipment in a dedicated community makerspace
No experience necessary, and no booking required, just come along with your ideas!
Come along to Garden Tinkering, a new monthly offshoot of our Tinkering Sessions, taking place outdoors in the Maxilla Walk Studios garden.
Free, drop-in, all welcome
