twenty10 – a place to be you

Change of plans! Today we have a guest speaker coming in to chat to you about what he's been getting up to and find out about you.

Here is some info about our guest:
Daniel Witthaus is on a one-man trip: the Beyond 'That's So Gay' Challenging Homophobia National Tour. He is in Sydney on the 24^th week of that tour.

Originally from Geelong in Victoria, Daniel started attending a group in Geelong just like Twenty10. From that beginning he started doing youth work and in 1999 led an anti-homophobia program at an all-boys Catholic school outside Geelong. He has spent the eleven years since doing similar work in schools across Australia and internationally.

Daniel's tour has so far taken him through Mt Gambier and Adelaide, across the Nullabor to Western Australia, up the coast to Darwin, Mt Isa and Cairns and then down the east coast via Brisbane and Lismore. Come and find out what he has learnt along the way. Daniel is also keen to learn what it is like to be a young person living in Sydney.

Group has been cancelled today. Sorry about that! Look forward to seeing you all next week.

Crafternoon! Come and get your craft on, with knitting, badge making, beading, paper toy craft, drawing. Feel free to bring your own craft project or start one here.

Today will be the second of two yoga classes run by Matt from Dancing Warrior Yoga. Come and learn some yoga poses, breathing and meditation techniques.

Paper toy craft! In other words, this evening we'll be getting crafty and making really cute creatures (pengiuns, aliens, octopi, fishes) out of paper.

This evening we'll be getting the badge machine out and making button badges! See you there.

Recently at Twenty10, we've been having chats about how we can create and maintain a safer space at our drop-in centre and at the groups and events we run. We've had a workshop about this in Newtown, and tonight we'll one in Hornsby. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas!

Come and eat snacks, have a chat and watch the film 'Hedwig and the Angry Inch' a story of an "internationally ignored' rock singer, Hedwig and her search for freedom and love. It's pretty awesome and full of some fantastic and halarious songs.

Hope to see you there!

Today (as long as the weather is lovely and sunny) we'll go and have a picnic in Victoria Park (near Broadway on City Rd). Meet at Twenty10 at 1pm and we can go together. I will provide food, but feel free to bring extra snacks if you like.

Tonight we'll be playing games. Bring your favourite board game, cards, twister or ideas for other fun games to play.
