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 Mondays, a new monthly offshoot of our Tinkering Sessions, taking place outdoors in the Maxilla Walk Studios garden.

Free, drop-in, all welcome
