This is one of 10 free community workshops touring regional and metropolitan Queensland, funded by the Queensland Mental Health Commission and delivered by Hey Mate. Through guided conversations and activities, this 3-hour facilitated workshop explores AOD literacy, harm reduction in creative contexts, reducing stigma, and burnout prevention, designed to feel like a genuine community gathering, not a lecture. Open to artists, creatives, freelancers, arts workers, and anyone in Queensland’s creative industries, no prior knowledge needed. You’ll leave with practical wellbeing strategies, more confidence talking about alcohol and other drugs, a better understanding of support options, and new connections within the creative community.
