Go Beyond the Studio. Grow with Your Community.

A successful creative career is built on more than just great work; it's built on continuous learning and genuine connection.

We've designed our workshops and events to be the hub where Victoria's creative professionals come to sharpen their skills, share ideas, and build lasting relationships. These aren't just workshops; they are investments in your professional growth.

OUR SIGNATURE EVENTS

Connect, Share, and Get Inspired

Members' Networking Nights

Meet your peers, share what you're working on, and find your next collaborator in a casual, social setting. These events are the heart of our creative community.

The OS Film Club

Join us for screenings of films that inspire and challenge us as visual storytellers. Each screening is followed by a critical, analytical discussion where we break down what makes visual communication powerful.
