Horsham Rural City Council is teaming up with O2 media to next month present an interactive digital media workshop for local community groups.
The free event at the Wimmera Business Centre will help local groups from major event organisers to local service clubs to use modern marketing to meet their goals.
Mayor Robyn Gulline urged all local groups who needed assistance with digital marketing to attend the workshop.
"Digital marketing, including social media, is a part of everyday life now and if you are running a local organisation or event, you can't afford to be without it," Cr Gulline said.
"This workshop will give you the basics of what you need to know about digital platforms, the resources required to get started and how to put together a plan."
The workshop is on Wednesday 9 June with an afternoon session from 12.30pm to 4pm.
A repeat of the workshop will start at 6pm.
