Brisbane Brown Owls: Dates for 2014

About Brisbane Brown Owls

Brisbane Brown Owls meet once or twice a month in various locations throughout Brisbane. At each meet up we either learn a new craft or you can bring along your own craft to do. It's all about sharing crafty knowledge and skills, meeting crafty people and having a cuppa. Brisbane Brown Owls is run on a volunteer basis by Rebecca and Wayne.

How much is it?
Brisbane Brown Owls is usually free unless there is a special crafting project, guest facilitator or venue hire fee.
