The line chart compares the number of people taking part in 5 different activities at a social center in Melbourne over a 20-year period.
Broadly speaking, it is evident that the number of participants in most activities increased over the duration, with the film club consistently being the most popular activity. Furthermore, the increase in popularity of the musical performances saw a corresponding decline in the number of participants in amateur dramatics, while the martial arts membership showed minor fluctuations during the same period.
Film club had by far the highest level of participation throughout the period although their growth was a lot more subdued, beginning the period at around 65 and even falling by a few points between 2005 and 2010. The most dramatic increase occurred in table tennis where the number of players went from by far the lowest in 2000 (just under 20) to more than 50 at the end of the period.
The number of people who enrolled in amateur dramatics grew slightly from about 25 in the first 5 years, but then sank rapidly to become the least-popular by 2020, with just under 10 members. Meanwhile, after starting in 2005, musical performances went through a significant growth in population with the figure standing at slightly under 20 by the end of the period. Conversely, the number of attendees in martial arts remained relatively stable.
