25.01.2022 From all of us here at The Joinery, happy World Environment Day!

25.01.2022 Want to check out what the Joinerys all about? As part of the upcoming SA Nature Festival were welcoming you for a guided tour of our home in the heart of the city! On 28 September our Adelaide Sustainability Centre team will show you around our awesome spaces and tell you the stories of the people, animals, art and programs that call the Joinery home. There are four sessions throughout the day, so jump in and grab your spot.

24.01.2022 Its a stunning day outside, and Joinery superstar Kirsty is taking the chance to get artistic on the new planter boxes along our southern garden fence. Theyre designed to match our new colour scheme and icons - have you noticed a bit of a dust-up of our signage lately? We love bright colours around here (obviously)!

The future's bright! David Speirs MP... Green Adelaide See more

We cant wait to show you whats been happening behind the scenes when we reopen to the public - stay tuned for more info in coming weeks
