Workshops range from two to four-hour per session: a private class for one person, a small group-booking for two to four or a party group for up to 15-25(Max number varies for some workshops).

The shorter sessions are have a more festive and social slant for birthdays etc,while the private individual or small groups are a more focused exploration of art-making but still good fun and relaxation for beginners or experienced artists.


The Arthouse has well equipped professional artist studio, pleasant patio and verandah areas with a backdrop of rural lands and the Mt Royal Ranges. The Inn's grounds occupy an acre and there is ample opportunity for outdoor as well as studio art-making.

We have facilities for digital photography and image manipulation as well as the more traditional artist's media.

As a stand alone experience, the single workshop is a rewarding and insightful art experience and for many a transforming one.

TESTIMONIALS

I have hired many artists to run workshops for local groups, festivals and events and I must say Stephen would be at the top of my list if I wanted a visual arts tutor.   

He brings with him unique teaching methods that are inclusive, encouraging and supportive.This is not your traditional art class... This is something quite different that that helps break down those inhibitions and barriers.

Stephen's lively weekly art class is met with enthusiasm and consistently positive feedback, which we gauge for all our sessions weekly. Artists and non-artists alike have appreciated his unique teaching style.,
