25.01.2022 There is more talent to add to The Collective (TC) team.. So I thought I might start something new.. TC Profiles Meet Beki! ... Beki Davies is a contemporary visual artist who is proud to call the Northern Rivers home. She worked for 15 years as a professional tattooist before she decided to pursue her creative talent and 'run away' to Art School. She currently holds her Diploma, Advanced Diploma and Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Art & Design. Beki has worked extensively in the local arts industry, has curated many group and solo shows as founder and co-director of Muse Contemporary Gallery, an artist run initiative in Lismore NSW. She can be found most days, hanging out with her son or working away at Silvercloud Studios in South Lismore happily covered in paint, clay or ink. If you would like to see Beki's work or contact her, look her up on Instagram @beki.art Beki's TC Profile: Fave food? B: "Mandarins" Spirit animal? B: "Probably a Labrador.. I wish it was something more fierce; but let's be honest... " Memorable quote? B: "Age is a privilege denied to many". Book you're currently reading: B: "I usually have a few on the go simultaneously... Dark Emu by Bruce Pascoe, HyperObjects by Timothy Morton and Gould's book of Fish by Richard Flanagan". Random fact about you? B: "At the age of 37 I still have trouble with left and right, though apparently Einstein did too, so I'm in good company." Alongside our lovely Robyn, these two fab ladies will continue to bring us the creative goods to each Paint N Sip: Art Social event! Upcoming event will be hosted by Beki on Fri 7th Feb 2020. Follow up post to come with event details and booking info.. TC

Tracey holds clay hand building workshops for Beginners and is about to launch a wheel workshop: The Art of Throwing (Sat afternoons of March in studio). 5 Quick Q's with Tracey: Fave Food?

15.01.2022 2020 brings fresh new beginnings to Sth Casino business strip. The decision to diversify our businesses has been a tough one to make and a lot of heartfelt discussions and long lunches have been had to come to this. As a partnership we both bring unique skills and strengths to the table and a passion in health and community brought us together. I personally feel I have learned a lot from working alongside someone such as Sarah. ... 2019 was about sharing a dream together and although moving apart in 2020 we wish to continue to support each other's businesses and our vision alongside each other. Wishing Sarafina Fitness the most success on her new studio next door to us at The Collective Studio. Laini x

02.01.2022 Corona Virus #covid_19 has got the world turned upside down as we are all trying our best to navigate the best way through what's coming up and how to best look after our own health and the responsibility of what that looks like as a part of a society. Taking measures to prepare for social and economic isolation, (What does that mean for you and your family? Can you make a plan and take ownership rather than be a victim? Can you begin to think about working from home o...r possibly (at worst) a complete lockdown? Stock up on essentials and supplies, make arrangements with work, cancel certain unnecessary group gatherings.. but...always.. #bekind, #dontpanic. Consider the elderly and less able or immunocompromised. Take only what you need and continue to live in #love and #unity, rather than this #fear and #separation that is being spread like this virus. We have accomplished incredible things together as a human race when we stand together. We will do so much more yet... #together.. We are raising our #collective #vibration The Collective Studio Casino is working with its event organisers and hosts to determine if events are to be postponed or cancelled. I will notify customers around refunds or credit options. . All Simply U Yoga classes are remaining open for services continuing as normal for the meantime. This is a time where yoga can make a big impact. Please keep an eye on social media lines for updates around classes in upcoming weeks or feel free to contact me. I am taking all mats and equipment out of the studio to be thoroughly washed and disinfected through the week. There are disinfectant sprays and cleaning cloths for all guests to use before and after classes in studio. . I welcome you to consider bringing your own mat and towel to class (mats can be easily purchased cheap from Kmart or Big W).. If you do wish to have a break from classes, please contact me and I am happy to freeze your passes or membership in the interim to welcome you back when you feel safe and ready.. .
