South of Sanguine

Dark crafts, unholy friendships and the art of being gloriously strange together.

South of Sanguine is a community for those who prefer candlelit castles to beer gardens. Based in Melbourne we host social meetups, arrange side quests to get caffeinated before an alt market, workshops focused on dark crafts, alternative artistry and anything goth coded really. If you lean more medievalcore than cottagecore, and wonder why every craft workshop is more *livelaughlove* themed than dark, deliberate and a little deranged then we’re the place for you. Expect a warm, welcoming and supportive environment - even for those still adjusting to being among the living 🌚
