Bulleen Art & Garden has been running one or one and a half day workshops since 2000. These workshops are suitable for beginners, but more experienced sculptors will also learn from them. They are fairly relaxed, with scope for individual encouragement, with class numbers limited to 10 or less. They are run by professional, experienced artists/craftspeople who are keen to share their skills
The aim of these workshops is that you will have an enjoyable, satisfying day with us, where you learn some new skills, discover your creative talents, and make your own original artwork.
