Pop Up Community Lounge @ Wellard

**Pop-Up Community Lounge at John Wellard Community Centre**
*Opening Monday, 7th October – Every Monday, 9am to 3pm (until the end of the year)*

We welcome you to drop in to the new **Pop-Up Community Lounge** at John Wellard Community Centre! Join us any Monday from 9am to 3pm as we transform the foyer and office space into a vibrant hub of connection and creativity, open to everyone.

When you walk through the doors, you’ll be greeted with a warm, inviting atmosphere. **Make yourself a cuppa** and relax in our cozy space, featuring “linger longer” zones like our unique **Trinket Trade Tray** — a place where you can take a trinket and leave one in return. For book lovers, we offer a **Book Swap Station** and for those who enjoy games, we have **card and board games** available for friendly challenges.

Our local community artists have come together to add even more character to the lounge, with **artwork on loan** from talented locals, plus a special display by a poet. You’ll have the chance to **support the lounge** by purchasing arts and crafts from our **”Pay What Feels Fair” Arts & Crafts Station**, with all proceeds going towards keeping our free cuppa offering available to all.

Looking for something to do in Kwinana? Check out our **Info Station**, a one-stop spot for a calendar of local events, including everything offered by Befriend volunteers in the form of our meetups and activities at the Kwinana Senior Citizens Centre.

Before you leave, be sure to snap a picture of yourself for our **Community Vine**, adding your smiling face to the growing display of community spirit.

So come on down for a free cuppa, stay for the company and fun and leave with a smile. See you at the **Pop-Up Community Lounge** — where connection and creativity come together!
