The first ‘Street Creatures’ involved two Workshops run by two local artists, Thomas Thorby-Lister and Neil Tomkins, supported by the City of Sydney Council ‘Matching Grants’ Program in 2012. The Workshops involved local youth creating skateboard art, as well as workshops within Schools and Screen-Printing classes with Juvenile Justice groups. From here 'Street Creatures' has run multiple workshop
s and events including a Skateboard Design Workshop at Erskineville Youth Centre, Mural Programs with Liverpool Council, running a Workshop for NAIDOC Week at the Redfern Arts Centre, teaching at South Sydney High School, facilitating an Aerosol Mural Program at ‘Rendu Boys Home' in Marrickville, being supported by Marrickville Council to run the “Live to Create” Programs, collaborating with Arcade Screenprinting to present a Teeshirt Printing Workshop, participating with InnerWest Council's 'MOST' Program to deliver two Workshops, teaching at Dulwich Hill High School of Visual Arts, winning the ‘Perfect Match’ Grant and 'Independent Artist Grant' for their workshops, as well as running a Term program at Newtown Primary School, which resulted in a group exhibition of the finished artworks by the students at Alpha House Gallery.
