WORKSHOPS

Watercolour Workshops are offered in The Shed on Thursdays and Fridays from 10:30am-11:30am.

These workshops are for those that have never drawn or painted before and for artists who are at loose ends with their chosen art form and want to just play to reignite their creativity.

Everything is supplied and all artworks are finished within the workshop time. Price $20 pp.

These are very popular workshops so extra times can be added to accommodate groups of friends or families who wish to paint together.

Texting Sharon Lamb on 0400 575 869 to confirm day and time slot is very much appreciated.

MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLBEING WORKSHOPS

Free Course Monday Feb 2nd.

Another round of the “Creative Flow” Art courses begins on Monday, February the 2nd. Classes are from 9:30 to 12:30 on Monday or 1pm to 4 pm on Tuesday in the gallery shed and run for 5 weeks until 7th March.

The course is built around creative Group Art Therapy, and students will do a range of activities to help build resilience and create a unique piece of art.

We will be making Neurographic Art and Gelli Prints into a small handmade Journal.

This free course is possible due to a grant received from Kempsey Shire Council.

At the end of the 5 weeks, you can continue at the cost of $20 per week.
