The Paper Trail Club with Whistle and Page
Two before Ten Murrumbateman
The Paper Trail Club is a very casual monthly creative catch-up for people who own too many notebooks, keep paper scraps "just in case", and feel spiritually connected to Officeworks. Come solo. Bring a friend. Bring your stationery.
Think analogue hobbies that involve journals, knitting, sketchbooks, fountain pens, collage scraps, sewing projects, postcards, stickers, watercolours, zines and the notebook you bought during a deeply convincing "this will fix my life" moment. Bring whatever creative thing currently has your attention.
There'll be stationery swaps, postcard exchanges, notebook show-and-tells, thrifted craft treasures, handmade zine ideas, seasonal themes, fountain pen testing and very strong "I started this in 2021 and today might finally be its moment" energy. Bring whatever creative thing currently has your attention or your latest creative hyperfixation. No supplies? Come anyway. There'll be a communal stash of paper scraps, stickers, crafty bits and assorted creative chaos to rummage through like tiny stationery goblins at a craft market.
No classes. No pressure. No need to be artistic, productive or aesthetically organised. Just a table full of creative people making things, chatting, sharing supplies and enabling each other's completely unnecessary stationery purchases like the emotionally supportive little community we are.
