Join us for Tea & Craft, a gentle weekly gathering at Westall Library where parents can enjoy a warm cuppa and a creative activity in good company. This is an inviting, low-pressure space ideal for busy parents seeking a mid-morning break, a chance to meet neighbours, and to make something lovely to take home.
What to Expect
Each week brings a new, easy-to-follow craft project designed for adults and parents with school-aged children in mind. Projects range from seasonal DIYs to simple painting and paper crafts, all chosen to be achievable within the hour and to inspire creativity at home.

No previous craft experience is required, just bring yourself and a willingness to try something new. These sessions are perfect for practising mindfulness, boosting creativity and enjoying a social morning out at Westall Library in Clayton South.
