The Knowledge Market Is Melbourne's New Community Learning Space

Bone up on your cooking or bust out your best freestyle dance moves, at Melbourne's new pop-up creative hub. Located in the Docklands adjacent to Library on the Dock, the Knowledge Market is being sold as a cross between Ted X and the School of Life – a community learning space that'll play host to workshops and adult education classes on everything from corporate team building to hula hooping.

"Open to everyone, the Knowledge Market has been curated with a compelling range of events and experiences designed for the whole Docklands community, with programmed activity during the week, on weekends and at night," reads a mission statement on the Knowledge Market homepage. "With an emphasis on peer-to-peer learning and collaboration, the Knowledge Market provides an engine room for cross-industry cooperation, ideas sharing and greater community connectivity."

The pop-up will host workshops by professionals and creatives across a variety of disciplines, including food, art, dance and technology, as well as personal and professional development. Events currently on offer include a six week meditation course and nightly hula hoop exercise classes.
