The Paint & Play Mother’s Day Make Memories event will see families create collaborative collage artworks using photos, children’s drawings and personal keepsakes.
“I am a mum myself, and I really believe in making the most of the time we have with our kids,” Ms Jaworski said.
“Life gets busy and it is easy to get caught up in routines, so I wanted to create something that brings families back together in a simple and meaningful way.”
A highlight of the evening will be a portrait challenge, where children paint pictures of their mums or grandmothers while adults paint pictures of their children, creating a fun and often humorous experience.
Each family will have its own table and access to materials, with the session designed to be relaxed and free-flowing. There will be collage materials and paint available throughout the night.

“When families work side by side, from the youngest to the oldest, it creates a different kind of connection that you cannot really replace with a physical gift,” Ms Jaworski said.
“It is not just an activity, it is an experience. It is about creativity, connection and slowing down.”
The Paint & Play Mother’s Day Make Memories event is happening on Friday, May 8, from 5pm to 8pm at Rich River Golf Club, with the bistro open for meals.
“This event is about celebrating what made you a mum in the first place. It is about the people, the memories and the time spent together,” Ms Jaworski said.
Tickets are $65 for a family of four, with additional tickets available.
