Speed dating for friends, anyone?
Girls of Melbourne rejoice. Our favourite Ladies of Leisure (LOL) and online art retailer, Pieces 4 Places (P4P), have collaborated to create P4P x LOL, a temporary store and workshop space in Fitzroy.
In case you haven’t heard, Ladies of Leisure is a team of passionate and driven women that creates films, publishes zines and offers a range of fun merchandise.
And Pieces 4 Places are a specially-curated online store selling a diverse range of emerging artists’ work and past creations with an eye for the unique.
Running from September 26 to October 11, P4P x LOL will host a series of fun workshops from industry mentors. The aim is to not only surround you with like-minded women, but to help up-and-coming creative people in the pursuit of their passions.
