Wear It Purple Day: Craft Session at Newtown Library

Celebrate Wear It Purple Day with a splash of creativity and a dash of glitter! This isn't your average craft hour — it's a vibrant, inclusive fiesta designed for LGBTQIA+ young people (and allies!) to feel seen, celebrated, and unapologetically themselves. The theme? Colours of Courage. Yes, we're turning the page on shame and crafting confidence, one friendship bracelet at a time.

Forget boring scissors-and-glue — we’re talking DIY badges, mindfulness crafts, and light refreshments to keep those creative juices flowing. Whether you’re rocking a full rainbow ensemble or just a hint of purple, all looks are welcome. Kids under 12? Bring an adult sidekick — we’re all about safe, joyful hangouts.

Got questions? Hit up the Libraries and Learning team: 02 9265 9333 or library@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au. Bookings are essential (free, but don’t wait — your glittery destiny awaits!).

Pro tip: Pair your crafts with a post-session stroll through Newtown’s iconic streets. You’re not just making art — you’re making community.
