Discover hands-on creative workshops inspired by colour, culture, textiles, beads and the joy of making things by hand. Akos Creative workshops bring people together to explore creativity through African-inspired craft, handmade jewellery techniques, colourful fabrics and traditional craft influences.
Whether you are looking for a creative activity with friends, a unique cultural experience, a workplace activity or something different to do in Melbourne, our workshops are designed to be welcoming, practical and fun.
Our workshops may include:
- Beading and jewellery making

No previous creative experience is required. You simply bring yourself and a willingness to make something with your hands.
Creativity with a cultural connection
Akos Creative draws inspiration from Ghanaian heritage, African textiles, handmade craft traditions and the beautiful relationship between colour, pattern and personal expression.
Our workshops are not simply about making an object. They create opportunities to slow down, learn something new, share stories and enjoy creativity together.
