ClassBento started with a simple idea; to build a peer to peer community marketplace for anyone to teach or learn what they love. With an aim to improve mental health and keep people social in time of lockdown and isolation, they offer online craft and cooking workshops and craft box delivery straight to your door.
The following are
September/October online classes to look forward to. Do note that the event pages are in UTC timeframes even though the events are IRL in Sydney. You can convert the times
here. You can select up to 4 timezones for free.
