Could this be it? Really?! Do I dare go ahead??! This mess
of a shop, full of stuff others have left behind – unwanted things from all the
other shops around it. Could this possibly become the location for my dream
creative school – The Createry?
It is in an arcade on a busy Redcliffe street with cafes and
restaurants, but best of all it is along the waterfront. A real seaside
location! Ok, it has no view over the sea as it is inside the arcade (Jetty
Arcade), but as soon as you walk out.. Wow! It hits you; the most breathtaking
view of blue sea and misty Moreton Island in the distance.
This shop is on offer, it needs a lot of TLC, but I believe
it really could become The Createry! The arcade has 8 other shops, most have
been empty for a long period of time. But they are now filling – with artists,
a gallery offering art classes, a vinyl record store, the cutest gift shop and
now perhaps The Createry; Could this become the artistic arcade of Redcliffe;
destination for all things creative? My school will be where you will be able
to learn everything about textiles: sewing, knitting, crochet, modern
embroidery, craft etc. - from me and from other knowledgeable textile teachers.
Well, we will see, it is still on the drawing board, but I have to decide very
soon. Can I do it?
