Bring your knitting, friends, snacks and good company. If you're not working on a project and can't convince your mates to join you, come anyway! It's a great chance to meet new folks and lend a hand.

It's gonna be a really fun time, check out the program and sign up!


13/11/24 The Curernt State of Rewind

Things have been changing quite rapidly in the space in the past year, with quite little public insight. We're starting to open up our committee and memberships to non-studio holders, have refitted much of the building (with more underway) and have dramatically improved our organisational facilities.

All this being said our most contributing members are still quite a small group. Being quite reliant on a few people having lots of spare time, this is not infinitely sustainable and we hope to expand our horizons in the near future. If Rewind is a space you'd like to be involved in, please send us an email @ join@rewind.org.au :).

added new rewind logo background gif!

Working on the main css for the site and separating parts of the site into referenced files for consistency once I start adding new pages.

thinking about building my own simple php-based CMS-lite for the site in the future but do we really want to exit the text editor?

will separate this into a separate blog later :)


10/06/24 - Whoops

We accidentally killed our old cool website, here's a new shit one that will eventually become cool again.

how did we killed it? Our web hoster changed their server IP's and cloudflare doesn't automatically update this, we didn't realise this was the issue and broke the CRM we were using trying to find the issue. Why didn't we have backups? Great question :)
