Wesley Anne is pure winter magic.

It’s like being in your lounge room... if your lounge room was filled with beautiful souls, heart-stirring performances, and the kind of warmth that only deep connection can bring.

At OUTSPOKEN, you can sit back, feel held in community, and be moved by incredibly talented artists... all from the cosy glow of one of Melbourne’s most intimate venues.

Honestly, we can’t think of a better way to spend a wintery night. ❄️🔥

Underneath the mask of perfection is the part of you we’re most longing to meet.
At Giddy Garden, we don’t do polished. We do real, messy, magical, and deeply human.

Our events aren’t designed to be flawless.
They’re designed to be real.
To close the gap between performer and audience, facilitator and participant.
To create spaces where you can exhale.
Where you don’t have to perform your best self but just bring your true self.

OUTSPOKEN brings the mess, the joy, the belly laughs, the brave reveals, the surprising connections,
the parts we’re told to hide but secretly long to share.
Not polished.
Not perfect.
Just real... and deeply alive and connected.

OUTSPOKEN is happening on July 3rd at 8pm. See tickets in link in bio.

Our next wonderful performer for OUTSPOKEN is Charlie…

Charlie is a high functioning hed0nist. Her heightened sensate skills have been honed through years of making immersive sensory live art which, unbeknownst to her at the time, was an antidote to her history as a childhood s3xual abuse survivor. Her work of the last ten years has been to embody the permaculture principle, “the problem is the solution”; deep diving into s3x and s3xuality to empower herself and others. She does this through s3x-positive parenting, s3xological bodywork, embodied counselling and kooky k!nky play parties. She loves feet and dislikes small talk.

TRIGGER WARNING: Charlie’s story is a weaving together of some of the ways childhood s3xual abuse has impacted her life.

🌿 Invitations for Connection can be the tiny, everyday gestures that hold relationships together, like glue you can’t see, but feel. An invitation can be as simple as a shared glance or taking a pause to hold each others gaze, a gentle touch, a loving smile that lights up your face as your beloved, friend or sister walks into the room, a “hey, look at this!” or a “can I tell you something that’s on my mind?” It’s any moment where someone is reaching out, not with the intent of getting attention, but for emotional connection.

And how we respond matters. Turning toward these small invitations, with your body language, your presence, a smile, a hand squeeze, tells the other person: I see you. I care. I’m here.

Over time, these moments build trust, safety, and intimacy. When we consistently miss or dismiss these gestures, we’re not just ignoring the moment, we’re creating tiny rifts of disconnection that can grow wider over time.

Learning to notice and respond to connection invitations (and making your own) can completely shift the energy in your relationships. They don’t need to be grand gestures, it’s a bunch of the small stuff that says you matter to me.

At Giddy Garden, we think that play, connection, creativity and growth are vital parts of a vibrant, meaningful life.
We started with a simple but powerful dream: to create a space where adults could return to the parts of themselves that often get lost... the curious parts, the expressive parts, the parts that still long to dance wildly, to speak truth, to imagine freely.

And we’re just getting started.

Our dream for the future is to continue growing Giddy Garden into a living, breathing playground for the soul, a place where therapeutic entertainment, intentional performance, self-development, and community connection meet in joyful, transformative ways.
We envision a space that hosts even more workshops, performances, immersive experiences, and gatherings that are not just fun, but deeply felt.
A place where healing doesn't always look clinical, but playful, where growth feels exciting, not intimidating.

We are building a home for radical self-expression, for courageous vulnerability, for experiences that leave you changed.
A home for cuddle puddle dinner parties, workshops, heartfelt performances, sensory experiences, embodied dancing, connection games, immersive theatre, costumed characters, ritual and ceremony, meet-ups, and creative events we haven’t even dreamed of yet.
A home where you can show up raw, real, curious or messy and be met with open arms.

Our dream is to become a hub for a community of brave, creative souls...
a tribe that chooses authenticity over perfection, expression over repression, curiosity over judgment, and belonging over fitting in.

And every single event we create, every workshop we host, every story we tell, brings us a little closer to that dream. 🌿✨

We’re so grateful you’re part of it.
We can't wait to grow even wilder with you.
