Nat Bartsch hosts her third Artist Meet-Up to connect neurodivergent members of the Melbourne music scene.
Hosted in Mamma Chen’s, this informal get-together seeks to build a community amongst neurodivergent music industry folk, to create an atmosphere that caters to a diverse array of communication styles and sensory needs, and celebrates the strengths of creators with divergent neurotypes, including autism and ADHD.
Drinks will be available for purchase. A quiet space, sensory and communication tools will be provided for the event.
A social story/access guide will be provided. Admission is free but registration is recommended so we can send you these resources before the event!
The first Meet Up, held at Melbourne Recital Centre in April, was a beautiful success. Nat is delighted to share with you the remaining Meet Ups for 2024, across various venues in Melbourne. Thanks to Unified Music Group for their support of these events through the Unified Grant.

Mamma Chen’s acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, the true owners of the land that we live and operate on. We would like to pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
