Hello! It’s been a while, and a few changes …
Our dear Nina @nina.cantina is in Newcastle, with her new cantina. A good reason for a weekend visit! Happily, she is still hosting her food tours and cooking classes here in Port and neighbour suburbs.
There are some tours coming up soon. Check them out,a perfect Mother’s Day gift!
Katja Handt is our new resident, have you seen her bags @kattasche ? Exquisitely constructed by hand with sustainably sourced leather, these are beautiful objects in themselves.
Kattasche is having a Mother’s Day sale, why not drop by or have a quick look at her website (see bio).
Happy weekend to you all 🙌🏽

The studio was filled to the brim with creative goodness yesterday and finally all our tenants were in the studio at once. Plus a couple of extra special guests. It was a perfect opportunity for a group photo 😊
