Art. Music. Drinks. Good Vibes.

Looking to meet new people and enjoy a creative night out in Melbourne?

Welcome to The Gathering, a new event series by Insight Academy that brings together students, creatives, locals and curious minds for unique social experiences in the heart of the city.

For our first edition, Artstorming, we're transforming a Friday night into a space where art, music, good conversations and great company come together.

Whether you'd like to pick up a paintbrush or simply enjoy the exhibition, music and atmosphere, there's something for everyone.
