Commencement of Term 1: 2019 Art Class Program for Children, Young People and Adults


We have now settled into the art school for Term 1: 2019 and what a time of artistic bliss it has been. We have a really wonderful art program set in place for all art students and have began to deliver the unique dedicated, youthful but learned art experience in the young people’s art classes. The adult program that is also taught by Greg Devenny - Mackay and is fully set in motion for a great time of artistic experience and learning. All those who attend the art classes on a regular basis know the studio to be a full and rich artistic endeavour and also positioned in a non - competitive environment. The studio is free of the need to do anything other than to: experience creating/learning, be in the expressive moment and enjoy the company of other like-minded people who absolutely love visual art! This is Lavender Art Studios; operating art classes at the peak of creativity and offering a relaxed, caring, professional art studio for all those who participate. We are very pleased to welcome all art students to the new term of creative art classes. Elita: Art Studio Manager
