Perth Pride Shed

Morning Shedders!

We're in the process of incorporating and we're putting out an EOI in the hopes of filling a final position on the board!

We are especially keen to hear from Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islanders, women, those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, and people living with disability.

Previous board experience is not essential!

Find the link in our bio or here: https://forms.gle/Rz8WtV4dvkKTyvtr7

Identifying as LGBTQIASB+ is not a requirement of this role, however non-LGBTQIASB+ applicants must be able to demonstrate a strong history of allyship with the community.

The time has come to put the call out for volunteers!!

We're looking for expressions of interest from people who would like to volunteer their time to help continue running Craft in the Park.

We're hoping to find folks who would be able to dedicate some time every month to planning and hosting events as part of a team. We're creating a committee so that no single person has to dedicate a huge amount of time.

If that sounds like you follow the link to fill out the expression of interest form!! It's also in our Link in Bio

Don't have a craft? Not to worry! We'll have stuff for you to do!

Hey! Remember us?

It's been a while since we've had a Craft in the Park event. To be honest the weather just hasn't been on our side! We've also be focussing on securing funding to get the shed off the ground so we haven't had as much time to plan events. But we're brainstorming ideas so we can all get our craft fix throughout winter.

In the mean time, we're still running our community fundraiser! Get around it if you want to secure yourself one of the founding memberships, or a shed shirt, or a sticker pack, or or or lots of other things!

Love from the team x

📣📣 Ahhhhhhh, our fundraiser has reached 25%!!!!!

Thank you so much to every single one of our donors ❤️and thank you to everyone who has shared our posts.

We're well on our way to realising our goal of $25,000 to help get us incorporated, insured, and closer to making the shed a reality.

Check out the link in our bio to have a look at the perks available! Grab yourself a sticker pack, a shed shirt, or even lock in a founding membership for yourself or a loved one :) If you are unable to donate, we'd love if you could share this around to others to spread the word.

April’s Craft in The Park event was so much fun. Thanks to everyone who came down 💜🌈

Due to limited capacity within the team, we will not be holding a Craft in the Park event this month. See y’all in the extra gay month of June 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
