Cloverdale Creative Cafe creates opportunities for empowerment and connection, key for healthy individuals and neighbourhoods.

Functioning as a regular cafe, the social enterprise will foster creativity whilst providing hands-on training for at-risk youth.

It will provide table and room space for customers, writers, painters, sculptors and crafters to socialise and work on their own projects.

It will provide training and employment to at-risk youth within the local community.

The cafe will serve as a central hub for people to create and develop projects, exhibit work, and develop relationships in an empowering and sociable environment.

The Creative Cafe seeks to be:

A neutral public space for connection and building a greater sense of community.

Providing hospitality training for at-risk youth.

A space for local art to be enjoyed by others.

The Creative Cafe is:

Locating a community heart that has been lost or forgotten.

Encouraging, equipping and empowering in a way that goes beyond the consumer culture.

Providing a pleasant socialising/working space that is close by for residents.

Possessing the potential to host other community programs.
