This winter, join us around the roaring fire. On the evening of Saturday 14 June 6-9pm we gather at The Venny, Kensington for our next Naarm Melbourne Metro event.

We’d love to welcome you into circle for an evening of connection & sharing around our sacred fire. This is a space where you are truly welcome, safe & supported. Exactly as you are. Come and join us under the stars!

Together, we’ll take the rare opportunity to pause & reflect on what’s going on in our lives. To acknowledge what’s getting in the way. Bringing our attention back to the path that we’d really love to take. We slow down, breathe easy & listen deeply. Come & share with a wonderful group of like-minded men. The confidentiality of all that is shared is assured.

We warmly welcome all who identify as men, 21 years of age & over. This event is the perfect introduction for any man hoping to attend the On-Country Gathering in Mid November, 2025. Tix by donation here:

On Saturday night, we gathered around the fire for our first Naarm Metro gathering of the year. Respect, love & gratitude to the men who showed up. A gentle reminder that the right people are always in the room. They showed up for themselves, for each other & for the people they love most in their lives. It was a delightful mixture of ceremony & deep listening. A beautiful blend of youth and experience. All taking healthy risks and journeying together.

This was a precious space of safety, permission, vulnerability & sharing. There, we can lean in, listen deeply & learn from one another. Healing gently. We’ll be back around the fire at .venny.inc this winter. Watch this space for dates. We’d love to see you then.

Gathering Men thanks .venny.inc for opening your hearts to us. We acknowledge that ‘The Venny’ operates on the traditional lands of its custodians - the Bunurong - Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri - Woi Wurrung people of the Eastern Kulin Nation. We deeply honour the children at play & the elders Past, present & emerging.

Hey guys, Andrew and I are really looking forward to this Friday nights 6pm circle at The Venny in Kensington, Melbourne.

There is currently a handful of us planning on sitting in circle together. We’d love at least a dozen men to join us on Friday. So come along & bring a brother. We can’t wait to get down & join you for the night. We’d love to see you there.

Last night, we gathered once again for our Naarm Metro event. Sending love & gratitude out to all of the beautiful fellas who chose to show up. For themselves, for one another, for the people we love most in our lives, for our community. Journeying together, taking healthy risks, creating new heart led pathways to all that we love in our lives.

Together we created a precious space of safety, permission, vulnerability & sharing. So we could lean in, listen deeply & learn from one another. Healing gently. Together as men. We’ll be back in Naarm at The Venny sometime in June. We’d love to see you then. Tickets available soon via the usual channels.

Gathering Men once again thanks The Venny for opening your hearts & doors to us.
