It all began with the discovery, in 2017, that the current Club work shed and kiln shed were located on the neighbouring lot and needed to be moved. This led to a long process of negotiation with the Melville City Council regarding what form a replacement facility should take.

An enthusiastic and persistent working party led by Barrie-Anne Morgan lobbied local politicians, drafted plans, made a formal presentation to a full Council meeting and spent long hours in discussion with representatives of the Council who were assigned to the project.

What began as a ‘like-for-like’ replacement of the old sheds has morphed into a state of the art facility that will serve the needs of the Club and act as a community arts and crafts hub for many years.

Construction began on September 22nd with completion of the building anticipated for February/March 2022
