When Chester Garcia and Matt Branagan set up Sydney’s Work-Shop in June 2013, their mission was simple: to help people unleash their creativity, and to offer short creative courses that didn’t cost a week’s pay.
And that’s what happened. In collaboration with artists and experts, Work-Shop has fostered whole new clans of Sydney unicyclists, Ottoman-makers, street artists, tattoo illustrators, rappers and coffee-shop networkers.
Here in Melbourne since late 2014, Work-Shop has become a firm favourite. Do you think you’ve got what it takes to learn the harmonica, create a next-level selfie on a 3D printer, or master sleight of hand at the How to be a Houdini workshop? Of course you do – everyone does. That’s the Work-Shop philosophy.
