Community Centred Activities - Expression of Interest

The City of Perth Library invites individuals and groups to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) to deliver Community Centred Activities in the Library’s Level 3 open space throughout 2027.

What are we looking for?

Activities are primarily targeted to adult audiences and should provide participants with the opportunity to learn a new skill and develop it together as a group over an eight- to ten-week period. Each session should include guided instruction and support, allowing participants to practise and build on their skills each week, while also providing opportunities to connect and socialise.

Proposals should outline the activity, the skills participants will learn and develop, and how the experience will foster social and meaningful connections within the group.

Sessions must take place within Library opening hours, mornings or early afternoons.

What kinds of activities are we looking for?

We are looking for activities that introduce participants to a skill and provide opportunities to practise and develop it over an eight- to ten-week week program.

Each session should build on the previous one, with the facilitator providing guidance, introducing new techniques or elements and supporting participants as their skills develop.

For example, a crochet program might introduce basic techniques in the first session, then explore a new stitch or skill each week, allowing participants to practise and progress together.

Activities should be welcoming to new participants, with opportunities for the group to grow over time and attendees to invite friends along.

We welcome EOIs from individuals and groups proposing activities across a range of interests. Below are some category guidelines:
